Implementers Praise the Consolidated Implementation Guides

"From programmers to business owners, everyone at our organization prefers to work from the Consolidated Implementation Guides. Having one reference document instead of two open on your desk, or desktop, really simplifies things."

"The consolidated documents represent a significant productivity boost for day-to-day use by project teams and others who frequently reference the implementation guides. A single document eliminates confusion and the chance of omitting or misreading an important requirement. We’ve used the 4010 combined guides since they were published in 2003 and intend to do the same with 5010."

"Having a single document to reference and the security of knowing that it’s an ASC X12 product, increases the efficiency of our development process and the confidence that our solutions will be compliant."

Business Benefits of Consolidated Guides

Reliability
Consolidated Implementation Guides are the only documents created from official ASC X12 TR3 Metadata and authorized as derivative products of the Type 3 Technical Reports (TR3s). The publication process incorporates all errata updates directly from the trusted ASC X12 source.

Consistency
Consolidated Implementation Guides use the same presentation style and formatting as the base TR3 document. There is no learning curve for how to use this consolidated reference.

Single Document Reference
Consolidated Implementation Guides combine the information in a TR3 (Implementation Guide) with all applicable errata. This means that you can reference a single document instead of having to flip back and forth between multiple documents.
