It is used by the grocery and retail-oriented industries for electronic transactions. It is a subset of the ANSI X12 national standard consisting of some 300-plus general-purpose EDI messages. Within that large base set, many verticals are built on a small subset with narrow focus. Similar to EANCOM as a subset of EDIFACT.
