What Lowes requires

Your bill for the shipment. Must reconcile with the PO and the ASN.
Functional Acknowledgment
The receipt for every document. Automatic, both directions, within minutes.

Compliance matters here: Lowe's vendor compliance. EDISQ validates every outbound document against Lowes's companion guide before transmission, so chargebacks stop at the map.
