AS2: A Proven Standard

 

Applicability Statement 2, abbreviated AS2, is the preferred standard for e-commerce communications, specifically among retailers and companies that realize the need for secure, reliable standards. Following Wal-Mart's changeover to an EDI AS2 server, the retail industry has gained confidence that an AS2 client and server are secure and effective for Internet EDI. Along with Wal-Mart, the growing number of companies supporting EDIINT AS2 solutions includes: Meijer, Food Lion, Lowe's, Ace Hardware, Do It Best Corporation, DaimlerChrysler, Michaels and more. LexiCom and VLTrader are certified for AS2 Interoperability by the Drummond Group, the independent testing organization for the Uniform Code Council.
