ZERO-CLICK DEFINITION
What is Redwood Logistics EDI?
Redwood Logistics EDI is the structured electronic exchange of warehouse shipping orders, shipping advices, purchase orders, and invoices between Redwood Logistics and its trading partners across the Logistics & Transportation industry. It automates order-to-ship workflows, synchronizes warehouse data with ERP systems, and enforces AS2/VAN transport compliance for accurate, audit-ready fulfillment.

Validate 940 warehouse shipping orders and 945 advices against Redwood Logistics routing requirements before release.
Sync ship confirmations, carton details, and invoice data directly into your ERP without manual re-entry.

Redwood Logistics
EDI Integration
& Compliance
Redwood Logistics — the tech-enabled 3PL founded in 2010 and headquartered in Chicago, Illinois — orchestrates fulfillment for some of North America's most demanding supply chains, and its EDI 940 and EDI 945 requirements leave zero margin for error. One mis-mapped segment or a late shipping advice, and your inventory sits frozen in a Redwood-managed warehouse while chargebacks quietly pile up. Cogential IT's fully managed cloud EDI platform certifies your connection over AS2 or VAN in days — with pre-configured segment mapping, GS1-128 barcode compliance, and branded DSV packing slips handled end-to-end. No IT team required. No compliance anxiety. Just clean documents, every time.

[ SYSTEM_DIAGNOSTIC ]
Where does Redwood Logistics EDI compliance usually get stuck?
Most compliance issues happen when warehouse operations and EDI mapping are handled separately from ERP data.
Do 940 shipping orders reach your WMS on time?
Delayed or malformed 940s stall warehouse release; we automate validation and routing into your ERP.
Do 945 ship advices match actual carton shipments?
Mismatched quantities trigger chargebacks; our mapping aligns every 945 line with verified carton and shipment records.
Are your barcode labels and packing slips fully ASN-consistent?
Label and slip errors delay warehouse processing; we validate every physical document against electronic shipment data.
