The General Quick Start Tutorial is recommended for all new users – followed by eiConsole Foundation Tutorials (Modules 1-13), before moving on to more advanced topics and industry specific tutorials and documentation.

The industry links (top right and below) provide custom tutorials and documentation for eiConsole industry-specific bundles. (In addition to the above tutorials, we suggest healthcare users do the eiConsole for Healthcare – Getting Started Tutorial and/or the eiConsole for Healthcare – EDI X12 Getting Started Tutorial.)

Note: eiConsole users who want to leverage the capabilities of the Data Mapper should have a basic understanding of XSLT. Take the quick course: Learn XSLT.
