What London Drugs expects in the 850

London Drugs trades on X12 4010 over AS2. Beyond the base standard, watch these:

Mixpharmacy, electronics, and general merchandise ride one EDI program with very different category rules
UOMcase-pack integrity matters — each/case mismatches kick back at the DC

How EDISQ maps it

The certified London Drugs 850 map loads when you enable the partner — fields auto-map from NetSuite, QuickBooks, Dynamics, and 33 other systems, validation runs against London Drugs's spec before transmission, and the sandbox replays London Drugs test scenarios until everything passes.

Common rejection reasons

Nearly all 850 rejections trace to reference data, not syntax: identifiers that don't match London Drugs's cross-references, echoed fields dropped from the original PO, or timing that misses the program window. EDISQ flags each before London Drugs ever sees the document.
