Acumatica EDI Solution for Pharma Manufacturers

EDI Requirements for Pharmaceutical Manufacturers

Pharmaceutical manufacturers extensively use EDI for processing sales orders and for managing indirect sales through wholesalers. Manufacturers using Acumatica require a Acumatica EDI solution to address these different yet related tasks.

Sales order processing relies on EDI 850 Purchase Order, EDI 855 Purchase Order Acknowledgement, 856 Advance Shipping Notice (ASN), EDI 810 Invoice and EDI 812 Credit/Debit Adjustment.

Manufacturers delegating shipping to Third-Party Logistics companies (3PL) may need to support EDI 940 Warehouse Shipping Order and EDI 945 Warehouse Shipping Advice, or interface with the 3PL using file formats defined by the 3PL.

Managing indirect sales is based on EDI 844 Product Transfer Account Adjustment (chargebacks), EDI 849 Response to Product Transfer Account Adjustment (chargeback reconciliation), EDI 852 Product Activity Data (Inventory Count), EDI 867 Product Transfer and Resale Report,  and EDI 845 Price Authorization Acknowledgement/Status.

Acumatica does not support all these requirements. Pharmaceutical manufacturers using Acumatica had to rely on several third-party tools from different vendors, and incur significant costs and risks of the custom development.
