EDI files over SFTP

Connect any EDI trading partner to Sellercloud

Many retailers exchange X12 EDI files over SFTP. Their file names, layouts and acknowledgment rules differ, and here those are settings rather than custom code: set them to match the partner's spec and test on a real order before anything is sent.

Plans from $199 a month for up to 500 orders.

What goes back and forth

From the partner into Sellercloud

850 purchase order: Read from the partner's SFTP folder and created in Sellercloud.
997 from the partner: Their confirmation for each file you send.

From Sellercloud back to the partner

997 confirmation: On receipt or once imported, as their spec asks.
855 acknowledgment: If the partner wants one.
856 ship notice: Sent when Sellercloud has tracking.
810 invoice: Sent with the shipment.
846 stock: On a schedule, after any stock you hold back.

What is taken care of

File layout, names, 997 timing, 855 and reply IDs are settings per partner.
Separate test folders, so you can certify before going live.

What to have ready

The partner's SFTP server, username, password and folders
Your ISA ID and the partner's, with their qualifiers
Their EDI spec, to check the file rules (layout, names, 997 timing, 855)
Your Sellercloud login, and the company and warehouse orders should go to

Going live, one safe step at a time

1
Connect a partner
Pick the partner, add their SFTP or API details and your Sellercloud login. Each step lists what to have ready.
2
Test it on a real order
Every connection starts paused. A test run reads a real purchase order and shows it to you. Nothing is created and nothing is sent.
3
Switch it on
Turn on creating orders in Sellercloud, then sending to the partner, then go live. From then on it runs by itself, on the schedule you set.

Questions about EDI partners

My partner uses a VAN or AS2, not SFTP. Can it connect?

Not today: connections exchange files over SFTP. Book a call and tell us about your partner.

Can I test it before anything is sent?

Yes. Every connection starts paused. A test run reads a real order and shows it to you; nothing is created in Sellercloud and nothing is sent until you switch each part on.

How much does it cost?

Monthly plans: Starter $199/month (up to 500 orders a month), Growth $399/month (up to 1,500 orders a month), Pro $699/month (up to 4,000 orders a month), Scale $999/month (up to 10,000 orders a month). Orders over your plan's limit are $0.25 each. Every plan starts with a 14-day free trial. $750 one-time onboarding.
