Business benefits

Provides a ready-to-use UN/EDIFACT subset agreed between trading partners world-wide, eliminating the work involved in adapting the UN/EDIFACT standard

Any UN/EDIFACT components can be added to the EANCOM subset at the user’s request, with any EANCOM additions submitted for inclusion in UN/EDIFACT
