Integration

Retailer EDI
to Enterpryze

Retailer purchase orders arrive. Enterpryze sales orders are created. Acknowledgements, despatch advice, and invoices fire back out automatically, without anyone touching a spreadsheet or re-keying a line item.

Optional Flows

Extend beyond the core loop.

Once the core PO-to-order flow is live, Supply Lens can activate additional handling depending on your retailer requirements and Enterpryze configuration.

Multi-Entity Routing

Route POs across multiple Enterpryze companies or legal entities based on retailer, product range, or depot code, each with its own document series and business partner configuration.

Partial Fulfilment

Short-shipment scenarios are handled automatically, including split ASNs, partial line acceptance, and amended quantity acknowledgements managed automatically and reflected correctly in Enterpryze.

Invoice Matching & Tolerance

Retailer invoice tolerance rules configured per trading partner, covering price variances, quantity discrepancies, and charge-back scenarios handled against the correct Enterpryze document.

Credit Notes

Credit note generation from Enterpryze data and transmitted back to the retailer in the required format when returns or claims arise.

Exception Queues

POs with unrecognised codes, missing item mappings, or data errors go to a review queue. Never silently dropped, always visible, always recoverable.

New Trading Partner Onboarding

Adding a new retail customer? Supply Lens configures the document spec, Enterpryze item code mappings, business partner setup, and compliance requirements for each new partner individually.

Configuration

Retailer rules are
gloriously chaotic.
We handle that.

Every retailer has its own codes, document formats, timing rules, and compliance requirements. Supply Lens maps these to your exact Enterpryze structure, covering document series, item codes, business partners, and warehouses, per trading partner.

1

Trading partner identifiers

GLN, supplier codes, buyer identifiers, and VAN routing details captured per retailer. Each partner is isolated so changes to one never affect another.

2

Item code cross-reference

Retailer EAN, buyer article number, or internal code mapped to your Enterpryze item codes. Handled at the line level, per retailer, with no global overrides that break other integrations.

3

Business partner & depot mapping

Retailer depot codes, store numbers, and delivery addresses translated to the correct Enterpryze business partner and warehouse. Document series assigned per retailer or entity.

4

Document rules & timing

Which documents fire, when, in what format, and with what mandatory fields: configured per trading partner to meet their compliance requirements exactly.

Edge Cases Handled

Retail EDI breaks in
very specific ways.

Every retailer has their own quirks. Supply Lens has seen most of them and built the handling in so you don't have to discover them live.

"The retailer sent an EAN we don't have in our Enterpryze item code table."

Unrecognised item codes go to an exception queue with the full PO context. Your team resolves and re-triggers, and nothing is dropped silently and the retailer receives a timely acknowledgement either way.

"The retailer changed their depot code system and our orders started routing to the wrong Enterpryze warehouse."

Depot and location code changes trigger exception flags before an order is created. Supply Lens catches the mismatch at the translation layer, not after a sales order has already landed in the wrong place.

"We shipped 44 units but the PO said 48. The ASN and invoice both need to reflect what was actually dispatched."

Partial fulfilment logic fires a correctly amended DESADV and generates the invoice against the actual quantity from Enterpryze. The retailer receives an accurate document set, not one based on the original PO.

"We supply three retailers and they all want invoices in completely different formats."

Document output formats, mandatory fields, and transmission methods are configured per trading partner in isolation in Supply Lens. Adding a new retailer never touches an existing one's configuration.

What you'll need

Structured onboarding.
No surprises.

EDI onboarding is more involved than a standard API integration. Document specs, item code tables, and Enterpryze structure all need to be mapped before go-live. Supply Lens manages this process.

  • Retailer document specifications or message samples (ORDERS, ORDRSP, DESADV, INVOIC)
  • Trading partner identifiers — GLN, VAN details, supplier codes
  • Item code cross-reference: retailer EANs / codes → Enterpryze item codes
  • Depot / location cross-reference: retailer codes → Enterpryze warehouses & business partners
  • Enterpryze API credentials and document series details
  • Sample POs (real examples from each retailer where possible)
  • Test scenarios: standard PO, partial shipment, unknown code, invoice
  • Exception handling preferences — who gets notified and how
