Native EDI, retail compliance, no SPS license.
Walmart, Target, Macy's, Costco, TJX, Kohl's, Nordstrom. The 850 to 855 to 856 to 810 flow handled. Routing guides built in. GS1-128 labels generated. Chargebacks tracked, fought, and won. The trading partner directory ships with the platform.
Routing guides parsed for the retailers your AR team already knows.
60+ trading partners preconfigured. AS2 certs included.
The actual problem, grounded in reality.
You won the Walmart program. Now you have 90 days to be EDI compliant, GS1-128 ready, ASN on time, and routing-guide accurate, or chargebacks start eating your margin. Your current options are bad: pay SPS Commerce a per-document fee that scales with growth, or hire an EDI consultant who builds you a fragile mapping that breaks the first time the retailer tweaks a segment.
Meanwhile your DTC ops, which used to be the whole business, is suddenly the side project. Your team is in three tools (ERP, EDI, OMS) with three sources of truth, and the chargeback dashboard is a Google Sheet your AR clerk updates from PDFs. Routing guide changes from Target hit your inbox on a Friday and nobody opens them until Monday.
CCEN treats EDI as native commerce. 850 lands as a wholesale order. 855 generates from your stock. 856 generates from your pack. 810 generates from your invoice. The documents share the same ledger as your DTC orders. The chargebacks are dashboards, not a spreadsheet. The routing guides are validated rules, not PDFs.
What changes on CCEN
What native EDI looks like when it sits on the same ledger as DTC.
850 to 855 to 856 to 810 native
Inbound 850 lands as a wholesale order. Acknowledgment 855 generates from real stock. ASN 856 generates from your pack. Invoice 810 generates from the shipment. No SPS license, no consultant, no Friday-afternoon mapping break.
Routing guides as rules, not PDFs
Walmart, Target, Macy's, Costco, TJX, Kohl's, Nordstrom, Dillard's. Routing guides parsed into validated rules. Carton labels, ASN windows, BOL formats, all checked before the document leaves CCEN.
GS1-128 labels, generated
Carton labels, pallet labels, license plate numbers, all generated to retailer spec. SSCC barcodes valid against your prefix. Print directly from CCEN or push to your label printer fleet.
Chargeback dashboard with appeals
Chargebacks land as cases. Reason codes parsed. Evidence attached. Appeals tracked through resolution. Win rate per retailer, per reason, per SKU, on a real dashboard.
DTC and wholesale, one stockroom
A unit shipping to Walmart on a 940 and a unit shipping to a Shopify customer pull from the same on-hand. No duplicate SKU masters. No retailer-specific stock pool that drifts.

Walmart, Target, Macy's, side by side.
Each retailer has its own ASN window, its own chargeback codes, its own routing guide quirks. CCEN ships them as preconfigured rules.

Tools you'd typically replace
Wholesale and retail-EDI brands run a heavy stack. CCEN consolidates the EDI middle layer, the OMS, and the chargeback ops together.
Reference setup
A mid-volume wholesale brand running 4 retailers and DTC on CCEN.
We were paying SPS $4,200 a month plus $0.45 per document and still missing ASN windows. Our first month on CCEN we cleared 4,800 documents, missed zero windows, and recovered 71 percent of last quarter's open chargebacks.
Common questions from wholesale operators
- Do we still need SPS Commerce?
- No. CCEN is the EDI translator and the trading partner connection. We hold the secure EDI handshake (AS2) certificates, sit on your network, and own the document mapping. Most CCEN wholesale customers cancel SPS in month one or two.
- What about the Walmart certification process?
- We've been through it. We hold our own AS2 certs and have certified mappings for the major retailers. We assist on the trading partner setup directly with your Walmart contact. Typical certification window is 2 to 4 weeks.
- How are chargebacks handled?
- Inbound chargebacks (Walmart 812, Target deductions, Macy's debit memos) land as cases. Reason codes parse against the retailer's catalog. Evidence (proof of delivery, ASN, label image) attaches automatically. Your AR team approves the appeal or accepts the deduction.
- Can we do drop-ship retail?
- Yes. CCEN supports retailer drop-ship programs (Walmart DSV, Target Plus, Macys.com, Wayfair) natively. The 940 to 945 flow runs the same way as carton-level retail.
- What about VAS labels and ticketing?
- Value-added services (price tickets, hangtags, polybags, retail-ready packs) are handled as routing-guide rules. CCEN generates the work order to the warehouse and validates compliance before the ASN ships.
- Can we run DTC on the same instance?
- Yes, and you should. Same products, same inventory, same finance. The whole point of CCEN is one ledger across DTC and wholesale. Most retail-EDI operators have meaningful DTC volume too.
