What AAFES expects in the 852
AAFES trades on X12 4010 over VAN. Beyond the base standard, watch these:
How EDISQ maps it
The certified AAFES 852 map loads when you enable the partner — fields auto-map from NetSuite, QuickBooks, Dynamics, and 33 other systems, validation runs against AAFES's spec before transmission, and the sandbox replays AAFES test scenarios until everything passes.
Common rejection reasons
Nearly all 852 rejections trace to reference data, not syntax: identifiers that don't match AAFES's cross-references, echoed fields dropped from the original PO, or timing that misses the program window. EDISQ flags each before AAFES ever sees the document.
