Source Logistics EDI Compliance

Where suppliers stumble with Source Logistic compliance?

Most Source Logistic compliance failures arise from item SKU mismatches and delayed Advance Ship Not

01
Mismatched pallet tie-high configurations or catch weights?

Discrepancies in grocery pallet stacking configurations or certified catch weights trigger intake rejections, resulting in costly trailer detention charges and carrier performance deductions.

Fix Gap
02
Delayed warehouse departure advice prior to carrier departure?

Failing to dispatch EDI 945 shipping advice notices prior to tractor departure halts regional dispatch tracking, requiring strict Source Logistics vendor chargeback prevention procedures.

Fix Gap
03
Billing line variances in temperature-controlled storage surcharges?

Incomplete documentation for cold storage refrigeration handling generates billing disputes across monthly 3PL warehouse invoices.
