What Chewy expects in the 855

Chewy trades on X12 4010 + API over API + AS2. Chewy's 855 follows the standard X12 layout — no partner-specific companion-guide quirks are curated for this document yet. The certified base map covers the standard requirements, and validation still runs against the 855 spec before anything transmits.

How EDISQ maps it

The certified Chewy 855 map loads when you enable the partner — fields auto-map from NetSuite, QuickBooks, Dynamics, and 33 other systems, validation runs against Chewy's spec before transmission, and the sandbox replays Chewy test scenarios until everything passes.

Common rejection reasons

Nearly all 855 rejections trace to reference data, not syntax: identifiers that don't match Chewy's cross-references, echoed fields dropped from the original PO, or timing that misses the program window. EDISQ flags each before Chewy ever sees the document.
