What Walgreens expects in the 850

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

ItemIDsWIC (Walgreens Item Code) + UPC arrive together — cross-reference both directions
N1*STDC and store-direct programs carry different ship-to patterns; map by DC number
DTMship windows enforced per program; the 855 must confirm what you can actually meet

How EDISQ maps it

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

Common rejection reasons

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