Book a scoping call ERP + eCommerce Specialists Managed & Monitored Integrations Expert Integration Team APIWORX Provides the Service ## What breaks without EDI in Acumatica - Retailer orders are re-keyed from a portal into Acumatica, and typos reach the warehouse. - Ship notices go out late or don't match what shipped, which can trigger retailer chargebacks. - Invoices are built by hand, so amounts drift from the Acumatica ledger. - Nobody owns rejected documents, so the same error repeats every week. ## Documents supported: 850, 855, 856, 810, 846, 997 850 · Retailer → Acumatica ### Purchase order Becomes an Acumatica sales order with the partner PO number, ship-to and pricing references. 855 · Acumatica → Retailer ### PO acknowledgement Confirms, changes or rejects lines once the order is reviewed. 856 · Acumatica → Retailer ### Advance ship notice Built from the posted shipment, including pack structure where the partner requires it. 810 · Acumatica → Retailer ### Invoice Generated from the posted Acumatica invoice so amounts match the ledger. 846 · Acumatica → Retailer ### Inventory advice Publishes available quantities on the schedule the partner programme expects. 997 · Both directions ### Functional acknowledgement Confirms each document was received and parsed; missing 997s raise an exception.

Common retail sets are standard: 850 purchase orders, 855 acknowledgements, 856 ship notices, 810 invoices, 846 inventory advice and 997 acknowledgements. The exact set is confirmed per trading partner during scoping. Do we need a VAN? Usually you need a network or connection your trading partner supports. If you already have one we work with it; if not, options are reviewed during scoping. Does this replace our Acumatica setup? No. Orders, shipments and invoices stay in Acumatica as normal. The integration creates and reads those documents through Acumatica's API. Who fixes a rejected document? The APIWORX team investigates and corrects mapping or data issues, and escalates to your named contacts when a business decision or a partner conversation is needed. Do you onboard us with the retailer? No. Your trading agreement and any retailer onboarding stay with you. We build and test the document flows the retailer's programme requires. ## Book a scoping call Tell us your retailers and documents. A specialist will confirm scope and set up a short call.
