I'm not sure what you're looking for under Novell. All the major
EDI packages (at least for X12 support) run on PC's in a Novell
environment. This means Sterling, Supply Tech, ABC, ...
By the way, Supply Tech was by ATT as their PC choice (see Network
World, July 18, 1988).

I suppose it depends on what you're trying to do. Translations
or origination. For example, if the P.O. system is on a mainframe
you're doing translations, otherwise, you're expecting to enter
the P.O. into the EDI package directly.

Hope this helps. 

P.S> I have no interest in any of the companies mentioned other than
our evaluations of these products.
