Small setup mistakes in EDI documents or carton labels can turn into expensive chargebacks and strained vendor relationships.
Late, missing or inaccurate 856 ASNs, invalid GS1-128 carton labels and mismatched 810 invoices are common triggers. Our Colonial Mills vendor chargeback prevention checks catch these issues before transmission.
Colonial Mills vendor chargeback prevention starts with ASN accuracy. Missing carton details, wrong ship dates or bad product IDs cause rejections and receiving delays.
Carton labels must match the 856 ASN line for line. When labels are wrong, shipments sit on the dock and suppliers get hit with deductions.
