Our default EDI messages
Is your business active in the Food & Drugstore or the DIY, Garden & Pet sector?
We have developed a standard solution for these industries.
The most common EDI messages can be communicated, including orders (ORDERS), order receipts (APERAK), dispatch advice messages (DESADV) and invoices (INVOIC). The dispatch advice message is level 4, which means that it includes the SSCC codes.
A SSCC label can be generated through the T2S SSCC label API, the web-based application Palletlabel.com or the on-premises application One2Label Automation. We will help you choose the appropriate solution for your case.
During implementation we will make sure that the messages meet the GS1 standard and your customer’s requirements.
A short summary of the benefits
Opting for an EDI connection saves time and prevents manual errors. The information is more accurate, easily accessible and is complete. It will improve the quality level of your customer service.
Orders (ORDERS)
The EDI ORDER message is delivered directly to you in a format that can be processed by your current software (for example XML or JSON).
Order receipt (APERAK)
The confirmation that the order has been received can be sent automatically to your trade partner.
Packing note (DESADV)
The electronic dispatch advice message (DESADV) is generated based on your SSCC. The SSCC (serial shipping container code) is a unique pallet identification and is part of the GS1 logistics label.
Invoices (INVOIC)
The invoice created by your bookkeeping software is automatically translated to the EDI standard before it is forwarded to your customer. We map, transform, and send the invoice via EDI. Your customer receives the invoice according to their specifications.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is EDI?
EDI stands for Electronic Data Interchange. EDI is a technology developed in the 1960s for exchanging messages between information systems. Today, EDI is a term that often comes up when sending packing slips (dispatch advice), orders and invoices between a supplier and the trading partner. In Retail, EDI is a hard requirement for suppliers.
What is an EDI message?
An EDI message is an electronic message in which data is exchanged between companies in a structured way – without human intervention. EDI messages come in different message formats. Some message formats are industry specific; others are more general. Besides the standard EDI and EDIFACT messages, EDI messages are also sent in XML or JSON format.
What is an SSCC?
The SSCC or Serial Shipping Container Code is a GS1 code that is used to uniquely identify shipping units (such as pallets). You can uniquely identify each unit worldwide with this code. This way you can track and trace the goods not just within your company, but throughout the entire logistics chain. Traceability is thus guaranteed.
What is a DESADV EDI message?
DESADV stands for DESpatch ADVice and is the digital version of the packing slip. The electronic packing slip contains details about your shipments including your pallets and the corresponding SSCCs. The SSCC is the worldwide unique identifier of the pallet and is part of the GS1 logistics label (SSCC label) that you attach to the pallets.
What are the benefits of EDI?
The advantages of EDI are faster exchange of information, less chance of errors, 24/7 availability, better service, and reduction of costs.
