  5. What is Possible in RATEX? • Full-cycle EDI with FHEG, B&T/Majors, NACSCORP, Thomson and others supporting X-12 documents. • PUBNET EDI with all of their community of publishers/wholesalers. • EasyLink/FAX orders. • Ancillary benefits such as vendor catalogs into the EXTDB, order cascading, etc. • What others are you using, perhaps outside of RATEX (i.e. Web ordering, etc.)?

  6. Okay, Why Not Just Do It? • What are the common technical, human and regulations preventing stores from using existing capabilities? • What would RBS need to provide to assist with removing these obstacles? • What other forms of business-to-business or business-to-consumer electronic ordering/commerce interfacing needs to be addressed? • What rank of priority to you place on the above?
