Introducing XML ordering online

XML is becoming the fastest growing method of eCommerce. It can replace telephone ordering and enables orders, order acknowledgments and invoices to be transmitted electronically without the human intervention and integrating them automatically into the host systems cutting costs, time and the need for re-keying. This type of electronic communication has been available from XMA Ltd through traditional EDI (Electronic Data Interchange) and various ASCII format files via FTP for many years which can be expensive or a complex process to set up.

BASDA (The Business & Accounting Software Developers Association) has developed an international standard business template for electronic business. In XMA Ltd's progression to provide the customer with a better, less costly and more fluid service this is the standard in which XMA Ltd has decided to develop and encourage it's customers to use.

There are standard development off the shelf software packages for e-BISXML available including several Microsoft packages. Already many companies which are capable of sending, receiving, reading and posting eBIS-XML messages use this standard which XMA is embracing.

The above document tries to remove the complication of the standard schemas available on the BASDA website (www.basda.org ) and only lists the required data needed in the purchase order file for XMA Ltd to raise sales orders and for the customer to interpret the acknowledgements and invoices sent back.
