VALIDATION ENGINE

Validate Lawtons Drugs
EDI in Minutes

Lawtons Drugs' distribution network demands precise pallet labels, accurate lot tracking, and synchronized ship notices before shipments arrive at their fulfillment centers. Cogential IT's proprietary validation engine intercepts raw data, cross-verifying order quantities, pack structures, and routing segment rules against Lawtons' routing guide before transmission. Stop invoice rejections and fulfillment delays before they occur.

  • Pre-Transmission Segment Auditing
    Catch schema errors, missing qualifiers, and misaligned item identifiers in real time before your EDI 856 or EDI 810 reaches the buyer's clearinghouse.
  • Certified GS1-128 & SSCC Barcoding
    Generate fully serialized GS1-128 shipping container labels that mirror physical pallet builds and match ASN line items precisely to prevent receiving dock rejections.
  • Customized DSV Branded Packing Slips
    Produce Lawtons Drugs compliant, brand-accurate packing slips for drop-ship vendor fulfillment, maintaining complete multi-channel alignment.
  • Actionable Error Resolution
    Transform cryptic raw EDI validation failures into clear, plain-language alerts so vendor coordinators can fix discrepancies within minutes.
