In a prior life I used and liked Premenos' AS/400 solution using GEIS as a VAN. The big effort is not in the mapping from/to EDI, but changing your in-house software to support your trading partner's wants. For instance, they may want to be able to send you a PO and expect you to provide a bill of lading. If your system doesn't do that now (on paper, at least) then you'll have to add that. Also, each trading partner wants to use THEIR part numbers (not yours...)
