What is Under Armour EDI?

Under Armour EDI is the electronic data interchange framework that automates order-to-cash cycles for apparel suppliers exchanging purchase orders, ship notices, and invoices. It enforces strict compliance with Under Armour’s operational standards to streamline supply chain execution, inventory visibility, and label-packing slip alignment within the textiles and apparel industry.

Operational Focus

Apparel retail compliance readiness focus

  • Validate 850 Purchase Orders and 856 ASNs against Under Armour’s rulebook.

  • Sync 846 inventory data bidirectionally with Infor, Shopify, or NetSuite.

  • Maintain AS2 connectivity with 99.9% uptime for critical order windows.

CLOUD EDI PLATFORM

Under Armour EDI Integration
& Compliance

Under Armour, the performance apparel powerhouse founded in 1996 and headquartered in Baltimore, Maryland, doesn't tolerate EDI errors. Their AS2-based routing guide demands pixel-perfect EDI 856 transmissions with GS1-128 barcode labels on every carton—miss one digit and you're staring down a $500 chargeback. Cogential IT's fully-managed Cloud EDI platform eliminates that risk entirely, handling 850, 855, 810, and 846 transactions with zero manual intervention, so your team can focus on selling more gear, not fixing data.

  • AS2 Connectivity Without the Headaches
    We manage your AS2 communication end-to-end, ensuring secure, reliable transmission of 850 purchase orders, 855 acknowledgements, and 810 invoices directly to Under Armour's VAN—no IT team required.
  • Pre-Mapped 850 & 855 Flows
    Our platform auto-translates your ERP data into Under Armour's exact EDI 850 format, then captures 855 responses to confirm order acceptance, eliminating manual re-keying and order delays.
  • Chargeback-Proof 856 ASNs
    Generate compliant EDI 856 Advance Ship Notices with GS1-128 barcode data embedded, ensuring every carton is traceable and every shipment meets Under Armour's strict receiving requirements.
  • Real-Time 846 Inventory Sync
    Keep Under Armour's systems updated with accurate EDI 846 inventory inquiries, preventing stockouts and overcommits that trigger compliance penalties.

Under Armour EDI Compliance

Where does Under Armour compliance often break down?

Issues arise when label data and ASN fields are not perfectly matched.

01
Can your labels pass UA carton scans without rejection?

Our validation ensures barcode formats match Under Armour’s shipped-unit hierarchy.

Fix Gap
02
Is your 856 ASN synchronized with packing slip data?

We cross-check every carton count and GTIN before ASN transmission.

Fix Gap
03
Do you struggle with UA vendor compliance scorecards?

Persistent testing and live monitoring improve scorecard metrics over time.

VALIDATION ENGINE

Validate Under Armour
EDI in Minutes

Cogential IT's proprietary Validation Engine runs every Under Armour transaction through a gauntlet of business rules before it ever leaves your system. It checks segment sequencing, mandatory qualifiers, and cross-field dependencies specific to Under Armour's routing guide—like ensuring the SSCC-18 barcode on your EDI 856 matches the carton count on your branded packing slip. If a single character is off, you get an instant, human-readable error insight, not a cryptic EDI rejection. That's how we back our Zero-Chargeback Guarantee: catch the mistake in minutes, not after the chargeback hits.

  • Pre-Transmission Rule Checks
    Our engine validates every 850, 855, 810, 856, and 846 against Under Armour's exact business rules—including mandatory DSV and branded packing slip requirements—before AS2 transmission.
  • GS1-128 Barcode Integrity
    We automatically verify that your SSCC-18 barcode data aligns with your EDI 856 line items, preventing receiving dock rejections and costly chargebacks.
  • Human-Readable Error Insights
    No more deciphering 997 functional acknowledgements. Get plain-English explanations of what failed and how to fix it, so your team can resolve issues in minutes, not days.
  • Zero-Chargeback Guarantee
    If a validated transaction still results in a chargeback due to our error, we cover the penalty. That's how confident we are in our validation engine.
