When
do you use E-Commerce?
Documents such as invoices, purchase orders, and sales orders are
some of the frequently used e-commerce input and output transactions.
E-Commerce processing should be used when data needs to be sent
to and from computer systems in specific formats or when human intervention
is not desirable.For example, when you receive a sales order from
a customer via an electronic transmission, you would be better served
having an automated process update your application instead of human
data entry. This reduces data errors and speeds up the process.
