What is Build EDI?
Build EDI is the standardized electronic data interchange framework mandated by Build for e-commerce suppliers, enabling automated exchange of purchase orders, shipping notices, and invoices. It ensures real-time inventory visibility and compliance through API or AS2 connectivity, integrating seamlessly with backend systems to streamline order-to-cash cycles and reduce manual data entry errors.

Operational Focus
Where Build EDI compliance usually breaks down?
Most compliance issues arise when order data, inventory updates, and shipping details are not synchronized across systems.
01
Are your 850 purchase orders mapping accurately to Build’s specs?
Incorrect segment mapping leads to order rejections; our pre-validation ensures every PO field matches Build’s requirements.
02
Is your 856 ASN causing inventory mismatches at Build?
Mismatched carton counts or SSCC labels cause receiving errors; we align ASN data with physical shipments.
03
Do 810 invoices face payment delays due to format errors?
Invoice discrepancies from wrong totals or missing references slow payments; we enforce Build’s exact invoice mapping rules.
