Fastenal trades AS2 direct. EDISQ maintains the AS2 connection and certificates, registers your IDs, and loads the certified maps the moment you enable the partner:

1Enable Fastenal from the partner catalog — document maps load automatically.
2Cross-reference your data — vendor number, ship-to locations, item identifiers. The wizard flags anything missing.
3Run test scenarios in the sandbox — validated end-to-end before anything goes live.

Typical Fastenal setup with EDISQ: 1–3 days on the EDI side.
