Connect your ERP directly to Amazon with automated EDI integration built for high-volume marketplace and vendor central orders. We handle purchase orders, confirmations, advance ship notices, inventory feeds, and invoices automatically in both directions. Meet Amazon's strict routing guide and labeling rules to reduce chargebacks and prevent receiving delays. With our rapid deployment and 24-hour dedicated support, you scale without building an internal EDI team.
Amazon EDI is the electronic exchange of purchase orders, acknowledgments, ship notices, and invoices between your systems and Amazon Vendor Central and Seller Central platforms. Cogential IT establishes your AS2 connection, maps EDI 850 purchase orders into your ERP, returns EDI 855 PO acknowledgments, and transmits EDI 856 ASNs that satisfy Amazon's routing and CARP appointment requirements. The result is one compliant pipeline covering EDI 850, 855, 856, 810, and 846 flows without manual portal entry.
Maintain continuous AS2 connectivity with Amazon so EDI 850 purchase orders, EDI 855 acknowledgments, and EDI 856 ASNs move without manual intervention.
Map Amazon Vendor Central and Direct Fulfillment requirements into your ERP so every shipment, invoice, and inventory feed posts automatically.
Align EDI 856 ASN timing with CARP carrier appointments and Amazon prep and packaging guidelines to protect on-time delivery scores.
Amazon's ecosystem spans Vendor Central wholesale purchasing, Seller Central marketplace operations, and Direct Fulfillment drop-ship programs, each with distinct document expectations. Cogential IT's Amazon EDI integration consolidates all three under one AS2 connection, translating EDI 850 purchase orders, EDI 855 acknowledgments, EDI 856 ship notices, EDI 810 invoices, and EDI 846 inventory advisories directly into your ERP's native objects. Whether you ship to Amazon fulfillment centers through CARP-scheduled carriers or fulfill customer orders from your own warehouses, our Retail EDI architecture keeps every document synchronized with real-time inventory, pricing, and logistics data so portal entry becomes the exception rather than the rule.
Purpose-built API endpoints that translate your standard software exports into certified Amazon electronic documents in real time.
Stop receiving dock fines: our validation ensures ASN timestamps, pallet counts, and invoices match Amazon rules exactly.
Accurate shipping barcode label formatting designed to satisfy Amazon's automated sorting equipment and cross-dock facilities.
High-volume order automation built to handle frequent Amazon order drops, schedule updates, and automated digital invoices.
Late ASNs, missed CARP appointments, and unacknowledged 850s trigger Amazon deductions that erode already thin Vendor Central margins.
Amazon compares EDI 856 ASN data against actual warehouse receipts and CARP appointment windows. Mismatched quantities, late transmissions, or missing appointment numbers convert directly into deductions, which is why disciplined Amazon vendor chargeback prevention starts with validated, on-time ASN generation.
Yes. Direct Fulfillment runs on distinct purchase orders, ship notices, and inventory feeds with tighter SLAs than standard Vendor Central purchase orders. Cogential IT configures dedicated 850, 856, and 846 mappings so DF orders never compete with wholesale flows for validation bandwidth.
Amazon expects prompt acknowledgment of every purchase order, and silence is treated as non-acceptance. Unacknowledged 850s stall fulfillment, force manual portal entry, and expose your account to compliance deductions and suspended purchase order flow until acknowledgments resume.
Becoming a compliant Amazon vendor demands more than software — it demands deep knowledge of their routing guides, transaction sets, and chargeback policies. Here's why Cogential IT is the trusted EDI partner for Amazon integrations.
Ever since redefining global commerce from its Seattle, Washington base in 1994, Amazon has enforced some of the most unforgiving vendor operational performance standards in retail. Overlooking routing rules, missing transmission windows, or dispatching faulty inventory feeds triggers steep chargebacks and puts your Vendor Central status at immediate risk. Cogential IT delivers turnkey Managed EDI Services on a resilient Cloud EDI Platform that synchronizes your ERP with Amazon via high-speed AS2 protocols—protecting your revenue with our Reduced Chargebacks Assurance.
Cogential IT’s proprietary real-time validation engine scrutinizes every outbound document against Amazon’s specific routing and fulfillment guides before transmission. By auto-verifying carton-level pack details, mandatory segment rules, and timing thresholds, we eliminate the costly dispute cycle and assurance seamless compliance.
Enterprise teams choose Cogential IT because our Amazon EDI integration handles Vendor Central, Direct Fulfillment, and CARP complexity without custom coding projects.
Our library already covers Amazon's 850, 855, 856, 810, and 846 specifications, so mapping starts from a tested baseline instead of a blank template.
We configure dedicated Direct Fulfillment flows with the tighter SLAs DF demands, keeping drop-ship orders, ASNs, and inventory updates separate from wholesale traffic.
Routing requests and appointment numbers are embedded in ASN logic, so carriers arrive inside approved CARP windows and receiving teams never reject a trailer.
When deductions appear, we assemble the ASN, appointment, and acknowledgment evidence Amazon's disputing process requires, shortening recovery cycles for your finance team.
SAP, Oracle NetSuite, Microsoft Dynamics, and Acumatica connectors push Amazon documents straight into order, warehouse, and AR modules without brittle file-based middleware.
Every transmission is logged, validated, and alerted on, so a failed certificate swap or rejected 856 is caught by our team before Amazon flags it.

Amazon rejects documents for reasons that only surface at transmission time: invalid GLNs, missing ship-from details, quantity tolerances, or appointment mismatches. Cogential IT validates every outbound EDI 856 ASN, EDI 810 invoice, and EDI 846 inventory update against Amazon's published specifications before the AS2 envelope is sealed. Inbound EDI 850 purchase orders are checked for completeness and acknowledged through EDI 855 within required windows. Our ERP Integration platform adds retry logic, alerting, and full audit trails, so your team sees exactly which documents cleared, which need attention, and why, without opening Vendor Central to hunt for errors.
Cogential IT helps reduce manual re‑entry by linking Amazon’s EDI with the systems your team already uses.
Six structured steps take your account from AS2 certification to live 850, 855, 856, 810, and 846 transactions inside Amazon's portals.

Our team completes Amazon EDI onboarding inside Vendor Central, linking your GLNs, ship-from locations, and contact records to the correct EDI capabilities.

EDI 856 ship notices are synchronized with CARP carrier appointments so dock dates, routing details, and pallet configurations match Amazon's receiving rules.
We run end-to-end test cycles across all five transaction sets until Amazon certifies every document, and your account passes production certification on the first submission cycle.
Post-launch dashboards track ASN timeliness, acknowledgment rates, and deduction patterns, feeding Amazon chargeback disputing evidence whenever a dispute becomes necessary.
Our team monitors the first live orders, ensuring every transaction processes correctly.
