- Some companies have adopted a direct Internet communications link for transmission of documents. While in some cases, this may offer a reasonable and affordable solution; there are several reasons why a VAN should be used instead.
(a) Single Connection –What your customers or suppliers use to connect to the network need not concern you at all, as the VAN will take care of all these individual connections to their services.
(b) Mailbox Services – At its core, the VAN is essentially an electronic post office. It receives electronic messages which may be orders, invoices etc., reads the addressing information contained in the EDI envelope surrounding these messages and posts them into the mailbox of the recipient.
(c) Security –Access to VANs services are password controlled and most VANs offer Trading Relationship validation as a means of ensuring that only authorized messages or documents may be transmitted.
(d) Audit Control – It is essential for the VANs to provide the end user with a full audit trail, so that users have information at their disposal with which to manage their use of such services.
