Managed EDI for Publix suppliers
Publix EDI. Grocery orders handled from receipt to invoice.
Roundhouse handles Publix supplier EDI: grocery purchase orders, shipment notices and invoices, with the right format for your account. We perform the data entry and document work using our systems.
Let’s talk about your EDI
What is Publix EDI?
Publix EDI exchanges product orders, shipping information and invoices with merchandise suppliers. Its published supplier policy distinguishes grocery documents from other purchase-order and invoice formats. We establish the account’s document flow before processing, rather than treating every order as an 850.
Start with the selling unit.
A retail unit, an inner pack and a shipping case can carry different identifiers and quantities. We match your approved product references to the PO and retain the correct case conversion. That prevents an ordered case count from becoming an individual-unit count on the shipment or invoice.
Publix EDI documents and processing.
Publix’s published merchandise supplier policy lists these formats. Each account uses its assigned subset; this table does not extend those requirements to manufacturing-facility suppliers.
| Code / format | Document | What we handle |
|---|---|---|
| 875 | Grocery Products Purchase Order | Process grocery order lines and case quantities. |
| 850 | Purchase Order | Process non-grocery order formats when assigned. |
| 880 | Grocery Products Invoice | Prepare the grocery invoice from approved shipment and price data. |
| 810 | Invoice | Prepare invoices for accounts assigned this format. |
| 856 | Advance Ship Notice | Describe the confirmed shipment using the assigned map. |
| 824 | Application Advice | Review application-level errors and coordinate corrections. |
Use the actual shipment for the outgoing records.
Your warehouse confirms the items, quantities and dispatch details. Roundhouse uses that information to prepare the assigned ASN and approved invoice, then reviews any reported document exceptions. A changed quantity is reconciled before submission; it is not copied from the original order without review.
Testing before daily processing.
Publix’s supplier policy describes an EDI contact and testing process. We work through the current account instructions and agree who approves exceptions. The published merchandise policy does not automatically apply to suppliers of Publix manufacturing facilities.
Frequently asked questions
Publix EDI support
Does Publix use 875 or 850 purchase orders?
Its published supplier policy lists both. The product and account setup determine the format; we confirm that during onboarding.
Do you do the processing for us?
Yes. Roundhouse enters approved data, prepares documents and handles the agreed EDI transmissions.
Do we need to send an 855 for every Publix order?
We follow your current account instructions. The published policy reviewed for this page lists the 855 as not currently used, so it should not be assumed mandatory.
Can we view our purchase orders online?
Yes. You can view purchase orders and download PDF files in our customer portal.
Use the current instructions for your vendor account when setting up or changing an EDI connection. Retailer names identify the accounts we support; these pages are published by Roundhouse, Inc.
