Basically you need to install EDI Adapter comes with IS unless your company bought license for getting EDI module. Please go thru the EDI Adapter documentation that comes with EDI Adapter after installation on IS ,referece this location WmEDI/docs folder you will see the Userguide.pdf’s or visit [Advantage.webmethos.com](http://Advantage.webmethos.com) for EDI tutorials.
