Why Rail Industry Guidelines for EDI?

• The Rail Industry Guidelines were created to
  speed the development and implementation of
  electronic commerce in three ways
• They represent a commitment by the rail industry
  to a common format for electronic commerce.
• They arrange the ASC X12 documentation into a
  self-contained and abbreviated format.
• They concentrate on the portion of the standards
  which are pertinent to the rail industry.

3
Why Upgrade?

• Each year, ASC X12 updates the EDI standard
  creating a new version or release of the
  standard.
• In turn, the Subcommittee on Information
  Standards creates a new Rail Industry Guideline
  that recognizes the new X12 version/release.
• Each receiver and sender must be prepared to
  accept transmissions in either of the two active
  version/releases.
