What Canadian Tire expects in the 856

Canadian Tire trades on X12 4010 over AS2. Beyond the base standard, watch these:

HL looppallet→carton hierarchy exactly as shipped into the DC
MANSSCC-18 labels on every shipping unit
TimingASN posted before freight reaches the distribution centre

How EDISQ maps it

The certified Canadian Tire 856 map loads when you enable the partner — fields auto-map from NetSuite, QuickBooks, Dynamics, and 33 other systems, validation runs against Canadian Tire's spec before transmission, and the sandbox replays Canadian Tire test scenarios until everything passes.

Common rejection reasons

Nearly all 856 rejections trace to reference data, not syntax: identifiers that don't match Canadian Tire's cross-references, echoed fields dropped from the original PO, or timing that misses the program window. EDISQ flags each before Canadian Tire ever sees the document.
