VALIDATION ENGINE
Validate United Supermarkets
EDI in Minutes
United Supermarkets' routing guide is a minefield of specific requirements—from the exact placement of GS1-128 barcodes to the mandatory inclusion of branded packing slips on every DSV shipment. Cogential IT's real-time Validation Engine runs every transaction through a ruleset built from their latest compliance documentation. It catches missing segments, invalid GTINs, and formatting errors before they ever leave your system. The result? You see exactly what United Supermarkets will see, and you fix it in minutes—not after a chargeback hits your account.
-
Pre-Send Error DetectionOur engine flags missing or malformed data in your 810, 850, 875, and 880 documents before transmission, so you never send a non-compliant file to United Supermarkets.
-
GS1-128 Barcode ValidationWe verify every barcode against United Supermarkets' exact specifications—including SSCC, GTIN, and lot numbers—ensuring your cases scan perfectly at their distribution centers.
-
Branded Packing Slip AutomationThe engine checks that every DSV shipment includes the required branded packing slip, with correct store numbers and item details, eliminating a top cause of deductions.
-
Real-Time Error InsightsGet instant, human-readable error messages that tell you exactly what to fix—no more deciphering cryptic EDI 997 acknowledgments or waiting for a chargeback notice.
