There are three types of Montana EDI Trading Partner Agreements: the Retailer/Vendor Trading Partner Agreement, the Broker/Retailer Trading Partner Agreement, and the Broker/Vendor Trading Partner Agreement. Each agreement is tailored to the specific needs of the trading partners and outlines the standards and requirements for specific transactions.
