Simplify complex EDI transactions
With SPS Fulfillment, you don’t have to build custom integrations for every trading partner. Our full-service EDI solution streamlines the complexity of EDI by allowing you to manage all your orders and documents in one place. With our full-service solution, you can automate all your business transactions, including the most frequently used documents:
EDI 846 - Inventory Inquiry/Advice
The EDI 846 keeps retailers and suppliers up to date on inventory levels and is required for dropship or direct-to-consumer types of fulfillment models. In most cases, it is used by retailers who are asking their suppliers about current and future inventory available for their stores and warehouses.
EDI 850 – Purchase Order
The EDI 850 allows buyers to easily place orders with sellers electronically. It contains initial order request details and is the first step in the ordering process.
EDI 855 - Purchase Order Acknowledgment
The EDI 855 allows sellers to communicate the status of an order to a buyer. The seller can confirm, reject, or report any changes or issues with the order to the buyer.
EDI 856 - Advance Ship Notice/Manifest
The EDI 856 is typically sent by a supplier to provide information about a shipment to a distributor or retailer. Details about what has been shipped, its size, what carrier is moving the order, when it was shipped, and the estimated delivery date are all included.
EDI 810 – Invoice
The EDI 810 is an electronic invoice. Sellers send this to buyers to ask for payment for the products they delivered.
EDI 997 - Functional Acknowledgement
The EDI 997 acts as a digital receipt for delivery information. Trading partners can then confirm that they received the delivery information, as well as see if there were any data or formatting errors. This acts as a response to tell supply chain partners that information has been seen and accepted.
