Connect to Walmart through a single B2B integration platform

In this high-volume retail environment, Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) enables the automated exchange of business-critical documents, including purchase orders, shipment notifications, inventory updates, order acknowledgments, and electronic invoices.

With EDICOM's EDI integration platform, you can exchange EDI transactions with Walmart directly from your ERP, eliminating manual data entry, reducing processing errors, and improving the visibility and traceability of every transaction across your supply chain.

EDICOM serves as the integration layer between your ERP and Walmart, automatically transforming business documents into the required EDI standards, formats, and communication protocols. This enables you to manage all EDI communications from your existing business systems without maintaining separate integrations or manual workflows for each customer, supplier, or sales channel.

The same cloud-based B2B integration platform also allows you to connect with other retailers, marketplaces, 3PLs, logistics providers, distributors, suppliers, and trading partners worldwide through a single, scalable integration.

Common EDI transactions for Walmart suppliers

An EDI integration with Walmart supports the exchange of electronic business documents across procurement, order management, logistics, inventory, and invoicing processes.

The most common EDI transactions include:

  • ORDERS | Purchase Order Message: EDI message used to exchange purchase orders between Walmart and its suppliers. It automates the import of purchase orders into your ERP, streamlines internal order processing, and helps coordinate order fulfillment and shipment preparation.
  • ORDRSP | Purchase Order Response: Used to respond to a purchase order by confirming acceptance, communicating changes, or reporting exceptions before the order moves into fulfillment and shipping. This message helps keep suppliers and Walmart aligned throughout the order lifecycle.
  • DESADV | Dispatch Advice Message (Advance Shipping Notice - ASN): Sent to notify Walmart that goods have been shipped. It improves shipment visibility, supports warehouse receiving, enables shipment tracking, and enhances coordination between suppliers, logistics providers, and Walmart.
  • INVOIC | Invoice Message: Electronic invoice message used to automate the exchange and processing of electronic invoices as part of your Order-to-Cash (O2C) and Procure-to-Pay (P2P) workflows.
  • INVRPT | Inventory Report: Used to exchange inventory information, including stock levels, product availability, and inventory status. It supports inventory planning, replenishment, and more efficient supply chain management.
  • APERAK / CONTRL | Application Error and Acknowledgement Messages: Validation and acknowledgment messages are used to confirm the technical or functional receipt of EDI documents and identify any processing or document structure errors during the exchange.

The EDI transactions required for Walmart integration may vary depending on your trading agreement, supplier profile, logistics model, and the specific business processes established with Walmart.
