EDI (Electronic Data Interchange) is well known in the area of logistics and supply chain management. Various approaches for the standardization of EDI-Protocols exist today (e.g. EDIFACT, ANSI X.12). Although the standardization is needed and very useful, the process of standardization is sometimes too slow for agile companies, which want to integrate their suppliers and customers in a supply chain. Also, for small and medium enterprises the costs for the implementation of traditional EDI are too high. Therefore the proposed approach is based on XML, which is the upcoming standard for internet communication, and is realized with the programming language Java.
