# Installing the Golden EDI Standard App
## Introduction
Installing the Golden EDI App means that you prepare Business Central to be able to use Golden EDI app for EDI flows. No actual functionality is automatically enabled upon installation, but the app will add a number of GEDI menu items and fields into Business Central.
To be able to start sending or receiving EDI-messages the Golden EDI app also needs to be Initialized and configured. Depending on what EDI-flow the app shall be used for, the configuration is done either almost fully automated or with less or more manual additions. In the Beginner Courses we will focus on prepacked and "ready to use" setups done with just a few clicks.
