Do packing slips reflect the EDI invoice?
Discrepancies between printed slips and the 810 invoice cause reconciliation delays and deductions.

VALIDATION ENGINE
Validate Tekgraf Corporation
EDI in Minutes
Cogential IT's real-time Validation Engine is built specifically for Tekgraf's routing guide. It simulates Tekgraf's own compliance checks before any document leaves your system, flagging missing segments, invalid GTINs, incorrect barcode data, or packing slip mismatches. You get instant, human-readable error insights—not cryptic EDI codes—so your team can fix issues in minutes, not days. The result: zero chargebacks, faster invoice approval, and a vendor scorecard that makes you a preferred partner.
-
Pre-Send Error DetectionEvery 850, 855, 810, and 856 is scanned against Tekgraf's segment-level requirements, catching missing N1 loops, wrong unit-of-measure codes, or invalid dates before they trigger a rejection.
-
Real-Time Business Rule ChecksOur engine validates against Tekgraf's unique rules—like mandatory GS1-128 barcode references in the ASN and branded packing slip data in the 856—so nothing slips through.
-
Chargeback Prevention DashboardSee exactly which documents would have failed Tekgraf's compliance audit, with actionable fixes for each error, reducing chargeback risk to near zero.
-
Automated Compliance AlertsGet instant notifications when a document violates Tekgraf's requirements, allowing your team to correct and resend before the VAN window closes—no more silent failures.
