Toyota Working Group Common EDI
Toyota Working Group Common EDI*1 is a structure available to parts manufacturers within the Toyota Group, that was studied and built by the Toyota Working Group*2. Linking a TOPICS package system to the common EDI produces further efficiency improvements.
By standardizing*3 a wide variety of conventionally used forms and data formats, the Toyota Working Group Common EDI standardizes order-receiving and issuing operations, allowing all member companies to transact with each other through the EDI.
The Toyota Working Group Common EDI-ASP services make available the Basic Module, which provides simple order-receiving and issuing functions using a Web browser; the Open Module, which supplements the kanban delivery instruction functions and order-receiving and shipment functions; and the External Interface Module, which is used in linkage with each company’s own core system. You can select the modules your company needs, based on its processing volume and applications.
*1: EDI stands for Electronic Data Interchange.
*2: A working group formed in 2010 for the purpose of suggesting and constructing standard parts procurement operations among parts manufacturers.
*3: Typical forms and the formats for the data to be exchanged are standardized based on the specifications set by the Japan Automobile Manufacturers Association and the Japan Auto Parts Industries Association (JAPIA).
*4: An infrastructure service that connects various vendors and order-issuing systems to the order-receiving systems of companies receiving orders.
