Trading Partner Series: EDI Integration for Macy's

The eBridge Software Trading Partner Series was developed to give our customers a place to go to determine what the common EDI requirements are for their trading partners.  

Today we are going to talk about the EDI requirements for Macy’s and what resources are available to help make the transition to EDI simpler. 

Whether you have been requested to start using EDI to transact with Macy’s or you want to eliminate all the extra work required to key orders in manually, the best place to start is the vendor site for Macy’s calledMacysNet.  This site has everything you need to become familiar with Macy’s EDI policies. One of the first links to visit will be the EDI Startup Form. One of the first things you will notice on this form is that it tells you exactly which documents you may be required to transact with Macy’s:

180 - Return Merchandise Authorization and Notification

240 - Motor Carrier Package Status

810 - Invoice

820 - Payment Remittance

832 - Price/Sales Catalog

846 - Inventory Inquiry/Advice

850 - Purchase Order

852 - Product Activity Data

855 - PO Acknowledgement

856 - Advance Ship Notice

The site also contains a listing of Macy’s EDI contactsEDI Transmit ScheduleMacy’s EDI Implementation Guides and also the form for 856 testing.

Adding a trading partner like Macy’s can be an overwhelming experience if you are new to EDI or if you do not have the resources to handle the implementation so why not leave the implementation up to the experts.eBridge has been integrating EDI for 15 years and understands how to implement Macy’s EDI requirementsin a quickly and efficiently. With ePortal you can actually be set up to receive EDI documents from Macy’s in a couple days, not a couple weeks. Give me a call and I can answer any questions you may have on in regards to Macy’s or any other trading partner you may have.
