Zero-Click Definition
What is Snyder's-Lance EDI?
Snyder's-Lance EDI is the standardized electronic exchange of supply chain documents between Snyder's-Lance and its Food & Beverage trading partners. It automates purchase order receipt, acknowledgment, shipment notification, and invoicing through X12-compliant mappings, AS2 or VAN connectivity, and ERP-integrated workflows, eliminating manual data entry while enforcing partner-specific compliance rules across every transaction cycle.

CLOUD EDI PLATFORM

EDI Integration
& Compliance
Miss one ship date on an 856 or botch a UOM on an 810, and Snyder's-Lance will deduct the cost straight from your remittance — a penalty that can erase the margin on the entire order. Born from the 2010 merger of Snyder's of Hanover and Lance, Inc., this Charlotte, North Carolina snacking powerhouse enforces a routing guide that trips up even seasoned vendors: tight 855 acknowledgment windows, GS1-128 carton labeling, and branded packing slips on every DSV order. Cogential IT removes that risk entirely with a fully managed cloud EDI platform — pre-built maps for the 850, 855, 810, and 856, AS2 and VAN connectivity handled for you, and a real-time Validation Engine that blocks non-compliant documents before they ever transmit. Audit-proof compliance, zero IT burden, zero chargebacks.
-
Zero-Chargeback GuaranteeEvery 850, 855, 810, and 856 is scrubbed against Snyder's-Lance's routing guide before transmission. If a compliance error somehow slips past our Validation Engine, we stand behind it — that's our guarantee in writing.
-
Pre-Built Maps, Live in DaysWe've already decoded Snyder's-Lance's segment-level demands — PO acknowledgment deadlines on the 855, ship-date precision and store-level detail on the 856 ASN, invoice-to-PO tolerance on the 810 — so your go-live is measured in days, not quarters.
-
AS2 & VAN, Handled End-to-EndWhether your relationship runs over direct AS2 or through a VAN, Cogential IT manages certificates, envelopes, MDNs, and acknowledgments behind the scenes. Your systems talk to us; we talk to Snyder's-Lance.
-
ERP-Native, Zero RekeyingPurchase orders land directly in NetSuite, SAP, Microsoft Dynamics, or QuickBooks; invoices and ASNs flow back out automatically. No spreadsheets, no swivel-chair data entry, no late-night keying sessions before the ship window closes.

Where does Snyder's-Lance compliance usually get stuck?
Most compliance failures occur when daily operations and EDI mapping are managed by disconnected teams and systems.
Do ASNs match carton labels and packing slips exactly?
Mismatched barcode labels, packing slips, and 856 data cause receiving delays, chargebacks, and damaged vendor scorecards.
Is invoice data drifting from acknowledged purchase orders?
Price, quantity, or allowance mismatches between orders and invoices trigger rejections, payment delays, and reconciliation backlogs.
