What expenses would be involved if a small business wanted to RFID 30 pallets of merchandise daily?
How does the EDI generate the data to be embedded in the tags?
Which equipment would be needed, and where would it be used in the supply line?
Is one RFID tag normally used on each pallet, or each crate?

Data on the RFID tag can be added during creation (e.g. its ID number) or during shipment (e.g. a sensor aRFID tag).
The minimum hardware you will need are tags and readers. You will then need software to understand the tags the reader is reading and software to make information out of this data.
Tagging is done based upon necessity. How important is an item? How frequently is a crate split?
Generally use barcodes on small items, passive RFID (pRFID) on a case, active RFID (aRFID) on a pallet, and GPS on a shipment.
Please explain "RFID"?
