What Fellow Professionals Are Saying “Thank you for this excellent reference book. We find it comprehensive, clear and expertly laid out. It is a valuable asset in assisting our incursion into this industry and market.” - William Rest, Project Manager, EM Data Consultants “IDII is to be congratulated for the enormous achievement of bringing together almost all of the ‘jargon’ of the Supply Chain business and technical world in one easy to use reference! I was surprised to find that the author had many abbreviations in the Warehousing and Distribution area that even I, after 32 years in the field, had not encountered.” - Art Avery, Distribution & Warehousing Consultant - www.elogistics101.com “This book is exceedingly helpful in coming to common, real world, feet on the street understanding. A great resource. I thought the idea and execution of this is great. I have always thought the EDI numbering system standards to be incomprehensible. I thought it was like the secret language that the I/S guys used to talk.” - James Fox, Supply Chain Consultant Table of Contents * Acknowledgements 1 * Target Audience 1 * Our Appreciation to These Contributors 2 * Glossary Word Format 5 * Products from IDII 5     * Barcode 7 * Business 15 * Computer 52 * Computer Chat 77 * Conveyor 82 * Country Codes 89 * Currency 97 * Dialing Codes 102 * EDI Transactions 107 * EDIFACT Transactions 112 * Ergonomics 137 * Forklift 145 * Government 154 * Incoterms 162 * Legal 165 * Manufacturing 173 * Material Safety Data Sheet 225 * Organization 248 * Pallet 262 * Purchasing 267 * RFID 284 * Standards 298 * Transportation 303 * US States & Canadian Provinces 329 * Warehouse 332     * MAIN GLOSSARY 370     * Need More Information? 705 * Suggest a New Word 705 * Online Glossary 705 Order: Amazon (Print) - IDII (Print, PDF, or Online Access) Online Glossary The Glossary of Supply Chain Terminoloy is also available online by IDII.
