Interface
An interface is a defined connection through which data is exchanged and processed reliably between systems. It specifies the form in which information is provided and transferred so that applications can work together in a technically consistent way. This supports workflows without media discontinuity and allows data to be transferred into an ERP system or Auto-ID middleware. The linking of RFID and ERP systems provides the technical basis for this. A properly configured interface ensures that information can be used directly in the ongoing process.
