3PL PARTNERSHIPS

You handle fulfillment.
We handle the EDI.

Offer EDI as part of your warehouse service—under your name, backed by our team. Keep the customer relationship, keep your people focused on fulfillment, and say yes to more retail business.

Your fulfillment expertise. Our EDI support.

Your floor team has shipments to move. EDI should not pull them away.

When the same people packing orders also have to process EDI, every document question competes with the next truck. A missing ASN, a mismatched carton label or an invoice error can mean chargebacks, refused shipments or delayed payment—and a customer looking to your warehouse for answers.

And when the one person who knows the EDI process is out sick, who picks it up? Roundhouse gives your operation an experienced EDI team to turn to, so retail document processing does not depend on one person between warehouse tasks.

Your service. Your customer relationship. Our EDI team.

With our white-label partnership, you can offer EDI under your own name while Roundhouse does the processing behind the scenes. Your customer gets a broader service from the warehouse they already trust, without you having to build an EDI department.

You stay at the center of the relationship. We establish the branding and communication process with you, so our support fits the way you serve your customers.

We already provide EDI support for warehouse partners. This brings more than 20 years of Roundhouse’s EDI experience into a service you can offer alongside fulfillment.

Compliance labels. Ready to print.

We send your warehouse GS1-128 label files to print and apply to the corresponding cartons, with advance ship notices prepared from your shipment details.

Your team handles printing and applying the labels. Roundhouse coordinates the label information and ASNs so they reflect the shipment you prepare.

What your warehouse gets.

More accounts you can say yes to.

When a prospective customer needs retail EDI support as well as fulfillment, you can offer both. EDI becomes another reason to choose your warehouse, rather than a gap they have to solve elsewhere.

Another service you can sell.

Add EDI to your service offering and create an additional revenue opportunity without building the processing team yourself. We can discuss a commercial arrangement that fits how you package and price services for your customers.

More time for the warehouse floor.

Let your people concentrate on picking, packing and shipping while our team handles purchase orders, ASNs, labels and invoices. They have an EDI contact when a document question comes up.

Support that helps you keep customers.

Help your customers take on new retail accounts with EDI support alongside the fulfillment they already rely on. Coordinating shipment data and documents helps reduce avoidable errors that put those relationships under pressure.

Clear responsibilities. Fewer last-minute questions.

Roundhouse: the EDI work.

We handle trading partner setup and testing, translate purchase orders into usable formats, and prepare shipping notices, GS1-128 labels and invoices using your customer and shipment data.

Your 3PL: the physical shipment.

Your warehouse controls inventory, picking, packing and dispatch. It supplies confirmed carton contents, quantities and shipping references, and prints and applies the correct labels. Roundhouse sends the label files for your team to print.

Your customer: the commercial decisions.

The supplier retains its retailer account and approves order commitments, product data and billing information. We agree who answers questions and authorizes changes so the warehouse does not have to guess.

Build the handoff around your operation.

1. Start with one customer’s requirements.

We review their retailers, required documents, current EDI arrangement and your warehouse workflow. We establish contacts, deadlines and who supplies each piece of information.

2. Agree the files and test the flow.

We review your WMS exports and sample data, including order references and carton-level details. If a system connection is needed, we confirm the format and implementation scope first. Our EDI Gateway service supports file translation and mappings for teams that retain processing in their own systems.

3. Coordinate labels and shipment notices.

The carton identifiers and contents in the ASN need to match the actual shipment. We use confirmed warehouse data to prepare ASNs and GS1-128 labels, with timing based on the retailer’s requirements. Repacking, short shipments or changed shipping references must be communicated before documents are finalized.

4. Keep changes from becoming surprises.

We establish how your team reports exceptions and how corrected information reaches us. Adding another customer or retailer starts with a scope review, so new requirements are accounted for rather than assumed.
