Managed EDI for TJ Maxx suppliers
TJ Maxx wholesale orders. The EDI work handled for you.
Off-price assortments bring different products, pack sizes and shipment instructions into each order. Roundhouse handles your TJ Maxx EDI processing, from translating purchase orders and changes to entering packing details, creating ASNs and labels, and preparing approved invoices. We use our own systems to do the work.
Let’s talk about your EDI
What is TJ Maxx EDI?
TJ Maxx EDI is the electronic exchange of business documents between TJ Maxx and its suppliers within the TJX trading environment. For wholesale suppliers, those documents support purchase orders, revisions and shipment reporting. Roundhouse manages the processing for bulk merchandise orders, using the requirements assigned to your account.
A service team that performs the processing.
We translate incoming orders, enter your approved shipment information and prepare the applicable electronic documents and shipping labels. Your team confirms the merchandise, packing and commercial details. You do not need to purchase or learn an EDI platform.
- Purchase orders available to view and download as PDFs in our customer portal.
- Order changes reviewed with the relevant fulfillment information.
- Carton labels and ASNs prepared from the actual packing breakdown.
- Invoice preparation and submission arrangements confirmed for your account.
TJ Maxx EDI documents and labels.
These document types describe the processing we review for your wholesale relationship. Required messages, maps, timing and invoice submission channels are confirmed during setup rather than assumed from a generic TJX document list.
| Code / format | Document | What we handle |
|---|---|---|
| 850 | Purchase Order | Receive and translate the merchandise, quantities and order references, retaining the relevant account and destination information. |
| 860 | Purchase Order Change Request | Review buyer revisions against the original order and carry approved changes into shipment preparation. |
| 856 | Advance Ship Notice (ASN) | Prepare the applicable shipment, order, packing and item details from the goods your warehouse is actually sending. |
| GS1-128 | Shipping label | Create the specified labels and keep their shipment identifiers consistent with the ASN. This is a barcode format, not an X12 transaction number. |
| 810 | Invoice — where assigned | Prepare approved invoice data and confirm the receiving channel before transmission. An 810 route is used only where supported by your account’s current instructions. |
| 824 | Application Advice | Review application-level document feedback where used and help resolve reported processing exceptions. |
| 997 | Functional Acknowledgment | Handle technical acknowledgment feedback in the agreed exchange; it is not proof of physical delivery or payment approval. |
Keep packing instructions alongside the order.
A purchase order total does not tell the warehouse how every assortment should be packed. We review the relevant distribution and packing instructions alongside the order information before preparing shipment documents. Where instructions arrive separately, your team supplies the approved version so carton contents and electronic records describe the same shipment.
An off-price assortment still needs precise item detail.
TJX’s off-price buying model includes changing assortments and opportunities such as closeouts. An order may therefore need a different packing breakdown from the previous one. We work from the actual style, color, size and pack information you provide, rather than carrying forward an old carton pattern.
- Retain the merchandise references used for the current order.
- Distinguish individual pieces from multipacks and carton counts.
- Check the packing breakdown after an approved order change.
- Associate each label with the contents it identifies.
Build the ASN from the shipment outward.
Shipment references, purchase orders, packs and items need to remain connected. We prepare the ASN using the structure assigned to your account and the warehouse’s final information. This lets the electronic record explain which goods belong to which order and package, instead of reporting only a combined quantity.
Confirm the invoice route before sending.
The document format and the submission destination are separate setup decisions. We confirm the current invoicing instructions for your TJX account, prepare the approved billing information and agree how it will be submitted. We do not assume that an older direct EDI invoice connection is the correct route for every account.
Setup for the TJX business you supply.
We confirm the buying entity, supplier account, document specifications and testing requirements before processing begins. A setup for TJ Maxx should not automatically be treated as the complete setup for every TJX banner or country. Your warehouse remains responsible for physical packing, ticketing, routing and delivery arrangements; we handle the agreed EDI document work.
Reduce avoidable EDI exceptions.
We check order references, changes, quantities and label consistency, and review the feedback available in your account’s document flow. We help reduce EDI-related chargebacks by resolving processing errors with your team. Roundhouse has been helping companies stay EDI compliant for over 20 years.
Bring open orders into a clear handover.
When moving from another provider, we review existing orders, pending revisions, shipments awaiting notices and invoices already submitted. We agree ownership of the outstanding documents before taking over, so your team knows what to send us and duplicate submissions can be avoided.
Frequently asked questions
TJ Maxx EDI support
Do you do the TJ Maxx EDI work for wholesale suppliers?
Yes. We translate purchase orders and changes, perform shipment data entry, prepare applicable ASNs and labels, and prepare approved invoice information using our own systems.
Do we need EDI software to use Roundhouse?
No. We do the processing for you. Your team provides accurate business information, packing details and approvals without having to purchase or learn an EDI platform.
Can you handle TJ Maxx purchase order changes?
Yes. We review the changes against the original order and use the approved information when preparing the shipment documents.
Can you prepare ASNs for mixed assortments?
Yes. We use your actual packing breakdown and the structure required for your account to connect the shipment, order, pack and item information.
Do you provide TJ Maxx GS1-128 shipping labels?
Yes. We prepare the applicable labels and keep their identifiers consistent with the corresponding ASN and packing information.
Do all TJX accounts use the same invoicing connection?
We confirm the current submission route for your specific account during setup. Invoice preparation and transmission must follow that account’s instructions, rather than an assumed group-wide connection.
Does one TJX setup cover every banner?
We review each supplier relationship and its assigned requirements. Buying entities, regions and document workflows need to be confirmed before extending processing to another account.
Can you help reduce EDI-related chargebacks?
Yes. We help reduce EDI-related chargebacks through checks on order references, quantities, ASN details and label consistency, and by addressing reported document errors.
Can we view our TJ Maxx purchase orders online?
Yes. You can view your purchase orders and download them as PDF files in our customer portal.
