eBusiness is the electronic, computer-to-computer exchange of business data between trading partners using agreed-upon messaging standards and message types. eBusiness eliminates the need for manual processes involving the exchange of paper, faxes or emails.

For example, when a purchase order is created in a customer’s order management system, the order is transmitted electronically from customer to supplier using one of the standard message types. The supplier’s fulfilment system then picks up the message automatically and begins processing the order without human intervention.

• An electronic gateway - communications software that receives and routes electronic messages.
• Data transmission capability via a value-added network (VAN) service or direct, secure connection conforming to the AS2 standard.
• A mail box for transmitting messages.
• Resources and software to create translation maps for integrating messaging with back-end systems.
• A staging environment to enable testing with trading partners.
