EDI is Electronic Data Interchange, used for transfering orders, invoices, delivery notes etc between companies. Sometimes use X400 protocols IIRC although some newer systems use a web interface and the 'Net for connectivity.

ERP to me is Enterprise Resource Planning. Have a look at http://www.cio.com/research/erp/

HTH,

Chris.
