Where does Orchard Brands compliance usually get stuck?
Most compliance issues happen when business operations and EDI mapping are handled separately.
Invoice discrepancies arise when 810 totals don’t reconcile against actual shipped quantities and accepted ASN line items.
Delaying an 855 beyond the SLA window lowers fill rate metrics and removes the order from allocation logic.

Orchard Brands requires GS1-128 labels and matching pack slips; one mismatch blocks ASN acceptance and triggers a chargeback.
Each carton label encodes a unique serialized SSCC that the 856 ASN references precisely.
Pack slip line items and quantities must match the ASN detail, or the ship notice is noncompliant.
Carrier SCAC codes and PRO numbers on the label must align with the 856 shipment information.
