SYSTEM READYWhat is Mckenna Warehouse EDI?
Mckenna Warehouse EDI is a 3PL-focused electronic data interchange framework that automates the flow of warehouse shipping orders, shipping advice, and shipment notices between suppliers, warehouses, and customers. It enforces structured document exchange through validated X12 transaction sets, protocol-level transmission, and tight WMS integration to maintain inventory and fulfillment accuracy.
3PL fulfillment accuracy focus
Validate 940 warehouse shipping orders and 945 advice before WMS release to prevent picking and routing errors.
Keep barcode labels, packing slips, and 856 ship notices aligned with physical carton contents and inventory levels.
Maintain stable SFTP transport and ERP/WMS mappings so inbound and outbound EDI stays synchronized.

Where Mckenna Warehouse compliance usually gets stuck?
Most compliance issues happen when warehouse operations and EDI mapping are handled separately.
Missing SKU, lot, or quantity detail often causes WMS picking errors and rejected inbound EDI.
Discrepancies between shipped cartons and EDI advice records can create billing disputes and compliance penalties.
Delayed ASN updates can break receiving schedules and damage downstream visibility for Mckenna Warehouse clients.
