What is Ross Stores EDI?

Ross Stores EDI is the electronic data interchange framework for off-price retail supply chains, enabling automated exchange of purchase orders, ship notices, and invoices between vendors and Ross Stores. It ensures compliance with Ross’s vendor routing and inventory requirements, integrating AS2 communication for secure, real-time document transmission.
