Most compliance issues happen when business operations and EDI mapping are handled separately.
Mismatched carton counts, invalid SSCC codes, or late ASN transmission trigger automatic chargeback deductions from Walmart.
Non-compliant UCC-128 labels cause mis-shipments, resulting in fines and potential vendor scorecard penalties.
Expired digital certificates or incorrect MIME headers often disrupt Walmart’s EDI communication, delaying entire purchase orders.
We embed Walmart’s supplier standards into your ERP, automate label generation, and prevent chargebacks through pre-validation.
Our system ensures barcode labels and packing slips perfectly match the ASN, eliminating Walmart’s most common compliance deductions.
