How the connector works

The connector authenticates against your BigCommerce store, then translates in both directions: inbound retailer and dropship 850s become BigCommerce orders, fulfillments with tracking become compliant 856 ship notices, and stock levels publish as 846 inventory feeds. Your store never sees raw X12 — EDISQ validates every document against the partner's companion guide first.

846

BigCommerce EDI FAQ

Does this cover my BigCommerce storefront orders too?

The connector handles the EDI side — retailer and dropship programs trading through BigCommerce. Your direct storefront orders keep flowing as they do today; EDI orders simply arrive alongside them.

Do I need EDI middleware between BigCommerce and my trading partners?

No. EDISQ is the translation, validation, and transport layer in one — certified partner maps, AS2/SFTP/VAN connectivity, and acknowledgment tracking are all included.

What does it cost?

Per document only: first 25/month free, then from $0.50, decreasing with volume. The connector itself costs nothing — no per-connector or per-partner fees.
