EDI Integration
& Compliance
Strawbridges Gifts, a leading player in the retail gift market, enforces a rigorous VAN-based EDI program that leaves no room for error. Their routing guide mandates GS1-128 barcodes on every shipment and branded packing slips for drop-ship vendors, while their EDI 850 and EDI 856 requirements demand flawless segment mapping. Manual data entry or outdated integration tools will inevitably trigger chargebacks and vendor scorecard penalties. Cogential IT's fully managed Cloud EDI Platform absorbs this complexity, ensuring your transactions flow perfectly from day one.
