Managed EDI for Five Below suppliers
Five Below EDI. We do the work for wholesale suppliers.
Roundhouse handles the electronic document work behind your Five Below wholesale orders: data entry, document preparation and transmission using our own systems. Value-retail order revisions and carton records kept aligned. Your team provides the approved product and shipment facts; we process the assigned EDI documents.
Let’s talk about your EDI
What is Five Below EDI?
Five Below EDI is the electronic exchange of standardized business documents between the retailer and its suppliers. For a wholesale account, the assigned workflow connects purchasing, shipment information and billing. Roundhouse performs that processing for you; there is no EDI application for your staff to buy or learn.
A replacement order needs deliberate review.
Five Below's supplier agreement describes replacement and cancellation through the 850 workflow. Roundhouse reviews the purpose of the received order before processing, helping prevent a replacement from being treated as an additional independent purchase.
Five Below EDI documents and processing responsibilities.
The table describes workflows we review for your supplier account. Required messages, versions, packing structures and testing follow your assigned program; not every row is mandatory for every supplier.
| Code / format | Document | What we handle |
|---|---|---|
| 850 | Purchase Order | Translate the purchase order and retain item, quantity and destination references. |
| 855 | Purchase Order Acknowledgment — where assigned | Prepare your approved quantity and status response using the assigned acknowledgment rules. |
| 856 | Advance Ship Notice (ASN) | Enter actual shipment and packing details and prepare the assigned shipment notice. |
| GS1-128 | Shipping label format | Prepare assigned shipping labels with container identifiers matched to the shipment data. This is a barcode format, not an X12 transaction number. |
| 810 | Invoice | Prepare and transmit the approved merchandise invoice with the required purchase references. |
| 997 | Functional Acknowledgment | Monitor technical acknowledgment; this does not establish business acceptance or approval for payment. |
Match the notice to the actual packing method.
Carton information and any permitted pallet structure must reflect the shipment your warehouse prepared. We use the assigned packing requirements for the ASN and keep item onboarding separate from recurring order processing. Account-specific acknowledgments are confirmed during setup.
From the approved order to the final document.
We review your Five Below account instructions and required tests, agree how your team will provide packing and approval information, and handle recurring processing. Order changes are checked against documents already prepared. Your warehouse controls the physical goods, packing and delivery; Roundhouse prepares the assigned electronic records from those facts.
Keep exceptions and the handover under control.
When taking over an existing Five Below account, we review open orders and documents already transmitted to avoid duplicate processing. Checking references, units and quantities helps reduce EDI-related errors and chargebacks. Available acknowledgments and business responses are reviewed separately, because sending a file does not by itself establish acceptance.
