Operational Focus

Where does Wajax EDI compliance typically break down?

Most issues arise when manual processes and disconnected systems fail to align with Wajax’s digital requirements.

Are your 850 purchase orders mapped to Wajax’s exact segment requirements?

Incorrect mapping leads to order rejections; our pre-built templates ensure every field matches Wajax’s specifications.

Does your ASN 856 include accurate carton-level details and barcode data?

Missing carton or barcode info causes shipment delays; we validate ASN content against physical labels and packing slips.

Is your 810 invoice timing and content aligned with Wajax’s payment cycles?

Late or mismatched invoices disrupt cash flow; we synchronize invoice generation with shipment confirmation to meet deadlines.

01 How does Wajax handle distribution center scheduling and lot tracking in Wholesale & Distribution EDI compliance?

Wajax Wholesale & Distribution EDI compliance relies on automated DC scheduling and clean inbound data to keep receiving windows predictable. Your EDI 850 Purchase Order and EDI 856 Advance Ship Notice must align on ship-to location, delivery date, and any lot or serial references required by the Wajax Supplier Portal / B2B Gateway. Lot tracking is typically carried in EDI 856 REF, MAN, or LIN segments depending on product class. Before sending live transactions, verify that your WMS or ERP can output lot numbers in the same format Wajax expects, and confirm appointment rules through the portal to avoid rejected loads.

02 How can suppliers prevent Wajax chargebacks and ASN timing mismatches with segment-level validation?

Chargeback prevention starts with matching your EDI 856 ASN to the physical shipment and the original EDI 850 Purchase Order before it reaches Wajax. Common issues include mismatched BSN02 shipment numbers, incorrect HL hierarchies, and late ASNs that miss the Wajax Supplier Portal / B2B Gateway cutoff. Validate EDI 856 REF, TD1, and IT1 segments against the 850 PO1 details, and send the ASN within the required window after pickup. Run pre-send validation in your EDI translator to catch missing SSCC-18s or invalid ship-to codes, then review portal error reports daily.

03 Which optional EDI transactions does Wajax support for order changes, remittance, and inventory updates?

Beyond the mandated 810, 850, 855, and 856, Wajax supports optional EDI 820 Payment Order/Remittance Advice, EDI 812 Credit/Debit Adjustment, EDI 824 Application Advice, EDI 860 Purchase Order Change, EDI 846 Inventory Inquiry/Advice, and EDI 870 Order Status Report. Use EDI 860 to accept or reject buyer-initiated changes cleanly, and EDI 846 to publish available-to-promise inventory if Wajax requests it. EDI 824 and EDI 812 help resolve exceptions and adjustments without email back-and-forth. Always confirm which optional documents are active for your trading relationship inside the Wajax Supplier Portal / B2B Gateway.

04 How to set up AS2 or VAN connection for Wajax EDI and exchange public certificates securely?

Wajax EDI supports both AS2 and VAN transport, so choose the method that fits your infrastructure and your VAN provider. For AS2, exchange public certificates with Wajax through the Wajax Supplier Portal / B2B Gateway, configure signed and encrypted MDN receipts, and test connectivity before moving to production. For VAN, provide your VAN mailbox ID and qualifier so Wajax can route the mandated 810, 850, 855, and 856 envelopes correctly. Keep certificate expiration dates on a renewal calendar, and validate ISA/GS interchange control numbers and security headers during your first test cycle.

05 What are Wajax GS1-128 SSCC-18 pallet and case labeling requirements for DC shipments?

Wajax requires GS1-128, also called UCC-128, shipping container barcodes on both pallet and case labels sent to its Standard Distribution Center. Each pallet should carry a unique SSCC-18 serialized container code, typically encoded in Application Identifier 00, along with human-readable content like PO number, item, quantity, and ship-to. Case labels follow the same standard at the inner-pack level. Before shipping, print a sample label and scan it with a verifier-grade scanner to confirm the SSCC-18 reads correctly and matches the EDI 856 MAN segment. Label failures are a leading cause of DC receiving delays.

06 How can a supplier migrate from manual Web EDI or a legacy translator to automated Wajax EDI without disruption?

Plan the migration in parallel with your existing Wajax EDI flow rather than cutting over blindly. Map the mandated 810, 850, 855, and 856 in the new translator first, then run test transactions through the Wajax Supplier Portal / B2B Gateway before touching production. Keep your legacy AS2 or VAN connection live as a fallback until the new environment passes invoice, PO acknowledgment, and ASN validation. Document segment mappings, qualifier values, and SSCC-18 generation logic so your team can support the new setup. A phased rollout by document type reduces risk more than a big-bang switch.

07 What are Wajax EDI 810, 850, 855, and 856 purchase order and invoice workflow requirements?

Wajax EDI compliance requires four core documents: EDI 850 Purchase Order inbound, EDI 855 PO Acknowledgment outbound, EDI 856 Advance Ship Notice outbound, and EDI 810 Electronic Invoice outbound. The 855 confirms acceptance or change at the line level, the 856 reports shipment status with tracking and SSCC-18 details, and the 810 invoices against the PO and ASN. Match IT1, PO1, and REF segments across all three outbound documents to avoid reconciliation failures. Use the Wajax Supplier Portal / B2B Gateway to review document status and error codes before invoices age into disputes.

08 When should Wajax suppliers update EDI maps after specification changes or guideline releases?

Treat every Wajax specification update as a controlled change with a defined test window. When Wajax publishes a new guideline or map version, compare the changes against your current 810, 850, 855, and 856 mappings, then update segments, qualifiers, or validation rules in a non-production environment first. Run sample transactions through the Wajax Supplier Portal / B2B Gateway test mailbox, and confirm ASN-to-label and invoice-to-ASN matching still passes. Keep a change log and notify your customer service and warehouse teams when new data elements, such as additional REF segments or DC routing rules, go live.

09 How does Wajax EDI integrate with Sage Intacct, Acumatica, and ShipStation for bi-directional automation?

For Wajax EDI, Sage Intacct handles the financial side by converting EDI 810 invoices and EDI 820 remittance into AR workflows, while Acumatica manages the order-to-ship cycle for EDI 850, 855, and 856. ShipStation can feed carrier tracking and package-level detail into the EDI 856 before it reaches the Wajax Supplier Portal / B2B Gateway. The goal is bi-directional flow: POs become sales orders, shipments become ASNs, and invoices post automatically. Verify that each platform exports the correct segment data, especially SSCC-18 and ship-to codes, and reconcile daily to catch integration drift early.
