Critical Chargeback & Import Pitfalls We Prevent

Common EDI mistakes that trigger $250+ retailer fines or accounting balance errors

18-Digit Instead of 20-Digit Value in MAN*GM02

Risk: Kroger ASN Rejection

When MAN01 is "GM", Kroger’s EDI translator requires the full 20-digit string (including leading "00" Application Identifier).

Our 856 generator and linter strictly enforce 20-digit MAN*GM values.

Failed Modulo 10 Check Digit on Pallet or Case Labels

Risk: $250+ Warehouse Scan Fine

A wrong check digit at the end of MAN*GM causes Kroger warehouse scanners to reject the pallet at receiving.

Validate your 856 in our workbench and auto-fix any Modulo 10 errors in one click.

Missing Expiration / Lot or Delivery Dates in DTM

Risk: Receiving Hold

Grocery shipments require accurate DTM*011 (Shipped) and DTM*017 (Estimated Delivery) segments.

Inspect all DTM segments in the left AST tree before transmitting.

Frequently Asked Technical Questions

ANSI X12 specification details, retail companion rules, and ERP import answers

What is the exact format of the MAN segment in a Kroger EDI 856?

Kroger uses MAN*GM*[20-digit SSCC-18 with leading 00]~ at the Tare (T) and Pack (P) HL levels (e.g., MAN*GM*00006141410000010004~).

Can I generate a Kroger 856 ASN directly from a Kroger 850 PO?

Yes. Load your Kroger 850 file and open the Turnaround Wizard to generate a compliant S→O→T→P→I 856 ASN and matching 4x6" barcode labels.
