EDI Integration
& Compliance
Threesixty Sourcing, a consumer goods powerhouse that has been orchestrating complex global supply chains from its Hong Kong headquarters since 2005, demands nothing short of flawless EDI execution. Their routing guide is a minefield of strict compliance rules—from EDI 850 purchase orders that must be acknowledged within hours to EDI 856 advance ship notices that require GS1-128 barcodes and branded packing slips. One misstep triggers chargebacks that erode margins instantly. Cogential IT's fully managed Cloud EDI platform absorbs this complexity, handling AS2 and SFTP communications, pre-mapping every segment, and ensuring your 810 invoices are accurate to the penny—so you can focus on growth, not firefighting.
-
Zero-Chargeback GuaranteeOur proprietary validation engine cross-checks every 850, 810, and 856 against Threesixty Sourcing's exact business rules, eliminating the errors that trigger costly deductions. We back it with a guarantee—if a chargeback occurs due to our EDI, we cover it.
-
Fully Managed AS2 & SFTP ConnectivityNo IT team? No problem. We configure, monitor, and maintain your AS2 and SFTP connections to Threesixty Sourcing, ensuring 24/7 uptime and secure, compliant data exchange without lifting a finger.
-
Pre-Configured Complex Segment MappingThreesixty Sourcing's routing guide demands precise segment mapping for 850 purchase orders, 810 invoices, and 856 ASNs. Our team pre-builds these maps to your ERP, so you're live in days, not months.

GS1-128 Barcode & Branded Packing Slip ComplianceWe integrate barcode labeling and branded packing slip generation directly into your fulfillment workflow, ensuring every carton meets Threesixty Sourcing's DSV requirements and passes warehouse scans without rejection.

Operational Focus
Where do Threesixty Sourcing compliance checks typically break down?
Most compliance issues occur when warehouse packing labels and slips don't match the EDI ASN data.
01
Are your barcode labels fully mirrored in the ASN?
Mismatched SSCC or carton counts cause immediate shipment refusal, delaying entire purchase orders.
02
Does your packing slip exactly repeat the ASN contents?
Any discrepancy triggers chargebacks, as Threesixty’s receiving system flags non‑matching documents instantly.
03
Is your ASN transmitted within the required timeframe?
Late or missing ship notices lead to carrier penalties and degrade your vendor performance score.

Before any 850, 810, or 856 leaves your system, our engine simulates the partner's acceptance criteria—checking segment order, mandatory fields, barcode syntax, and packing slip data. If a single element is off, you get an instant, human-readable error insight, not a cryptic EDI rejection. This proactive approach means you fix issues in minutes, not after a chargeback lands. With AS2 and SFTP protocols fully supported, your data flows securely and accurately every time.
