Operational Focus
Where Shannon Fabrics compliance usually gets stuck?
Most compliance issues happen when business operations and EDI mapping are handled separately.
01
Is your 856 ASN missing required textile lot or roll data?
Missing lot/roll fields in the ASN often cause shipment rejection and delayed payment cycles.
02
Do packing slips and carton labels match the electronic 856?
Physical labels that don’t mirror the ASN trigger exceptions and inventory misalignment at the warehouse.
03
Are invoices held up by PO line-item discrepancies?
Invoice matching fails when unit prices, quantities, or charges don’t align with the original PO data.
