Transactional Standards
The effective use of e-commerce is at the heart of an efficient book supply chain. BISG promotes good practice through endorsement of best practices in the areas of X12 EDI, XBITS, EDItX document formats, and FTP file naming standards.
The FTP File Naming Standard was developed to help book industry trading partners transmit and receive various files via FTP safely and efficiently.
Discover RFID with these industry resources, including a link to GS1 EPCglobal's "Discover RFID" website.
Last updated in September 2010, these best practices help to ensure the simultaneous availability of new releases to consumers from all consumer purchasing sources.
Published in July 2012, this standardized template is intended to facilitate automated reporting of co-op eligible sales between wholesalers and publishers.
BISG contributes to the XBITS data standard through a cooperative relationship with papiNet.
