What is Findlay EDI?
Findlay EDI is a manufacturing‑centric digital exchange protocol that automates procurement and fulfillment cycles between suppliers and Findlay’s backend systems. It enforces strict structural compliance on inbound and outbound documents, synchronizing ERP‐driven production schedules with real‑time shipping, acknowledgment, and invoicing data across AS2 or VAN connectivity.

-
Precision Invoicing (EDI 810)Accelerate payment reconciliation and maintain clean financial records through automated 810 Invoice generation mapped precisely to Findlay's segment hierarchies.
-
Advanced Shipping Notices (EDI 856)Streamline plant receiving with automated ASN (856) transmissions, matching exact pallet and container structures for friction-free dock acceptance.
-
Multi-Channel Connectivity (AS2 & VAN)Establish enterprise-grade, encrypted AS2 or high-reliability Value Added Network (VAN) connections configured to satisfy Findlay's exact communication standards.
Where Findlay compliance usually gets stuck?
Most compliance issues happen when production‑floor labeling diverges from EDI ASN mapping.
Discrepancies trigger manual reconciliation, delaying Findlay’s production inventory updates.
Stale change orders lead to overshipping or incorrect SKU allocations.
Why we are the definitive EDI compliance provider for Findlay
Cogential IT embeds deep manufacturing logic into every map, preventing the label‑ASN gaps and ERP desyncs that trigger Findlay chargebacks.
Embedded barcode‑to‑ASN verification
We hard‑code UCC‑128 validation rules so carton labels directly generate compliant 856 sequences, eliminating manual audits.
ERP‑native document orchestration
Plex, Epicor, or Dynamics 365 processes 850‑855‑856‑810 flows inside your existing SCM windows without middleware lag.
AS2/VAN transport resilience
Dual‑channel failover monitors transmission windows and automatically retries failed exchanges, keeping production schedules on track.
860 change‑order agility
We translate PO change requests into actionable ERP updates, preventing overshipping and inventory misalignment with Findlay’s demand.
Packing slip digital twin
Slip data is embedded into the 856 ASN, so Findlay’s receiving scans match physical cartons without discrepancy logging.
Manufacturing‑grade QA playbooks
Every map undergoes a simulated production‑floor test, verifying barcode, packing slip, and document alignment before go‑live.
Ready to lock in Findlay compliance?
Let our engineers harden your barcode‑to‑ERP pipeline while you focus on production throughput.
Manufacturing documents that govern your fulfillment flow
Review the core X12 transaction sets Findlay mandates for procurement and shipping accuracy.
The 850 initiates production scheduling; it must cross‑reference open SKU availability in your ERP.
The 855 confirms acceptance and locks in delivery dates, preventing schedule deviation penalties.
The 856 communicates carton‑level contents; it must mirror barcode and packing slip data exactly.
The 810 reconciles shipped quantities against the PO, triggering Findlay’s payment cycle.
I1 is not a valid input
Expected T (test) or P (production) at ISA15.
