Managed EDI for Zumiez suppliers
Zumiez orders. From apparel assortments to skate merchandise.
Clothing, footwear and skate products do not all use the same selling units. Roundhouse performs the Zumiez EDI work for wholesale suppliers, keeping the approved item details connected through order processing, shipment notices and invoicing.
Let’s talk about your EDI
What is Zumiez EDI?
Zumiez EDI is the electronic exchange of merchandise order and fulfillment documents with participating suppliers. Our service supports brands shipping wholesale goods to the retailer. We enter approved data, prepare the assigned documents and handle transmission using our systems.
Separate a complete product from its components.
A complete skateboard, a deck and a set of wheels represent different products and selling units. Apparel adds size and color variations. We establish the agreed product cross-reference so an order line is matched to the right item, not simply to a similar description.
Zumiez EDI documents and processing.
The formats below are an account-dependent processing reference. We confirm Zumiez’s assigned wholesale documents and maps during setup; this is not a list of universal requirements.
| Code / format | Document | What we handle |
|---|---|---|
| 850, where assigned | Purchase Order | Read the retailer’s item, quantity and delivery information. |
| 856 / assigned ASN format | Advance Ship Notice | Prepare shipment details from the confirmed carton breakdown. |
| Assigned shipping-label format | Carton label | Create label files for the account’s shipment identifiers. |
| 810, where assigned | Invoice | Prepare approved shipped quantities and billing references. |
| 997, where assigned | Functional Acknowledgment | Check technical receipt and follow up on reported errors. |
Turn warehouse packing facts into shipment data.
The final carton breakdown tells us which products and quantities are actually leaving your warehouse. We use it to prepare the assigned ASN and shipping-label files. Mixed product assortments need the same care as a full case of one item: the electronic record should describe the physical shipment.
Buyer approval comes before EDI activation.
Zumiez has a separate new-vendor introduction process. An EDI connection does not approve a brand or create a buying relationship. Once your merchandise account is approved, we work through the assigned document requirements and testing before daily processing begins.
A team to handle the document work.
We reconcile order information, flag mismatched references and prepare approved invoices through the required channel. Your staff supplies accurate fulfillment information and approves exceptions. That keeps your team involved in decisions without asking it to manage document mapping or repetitive EDI entry.
Frequently asked questions
Zumiez EDI support
What is EDI in a retail company?
EDI lets a retailer and its suppliers exchange structured business documents electronically. Roundhouse performs the supplier’s agreed document preparation and processing.
Does EDI setup make us an approved Zumiez vendor?
No. Merchandise approval is a separate buying decision. EDI setup supports the approved supplier relationship.
Can you handle apparel and skate products on our account?
Yes. We use the approved item references and selling units for each product type.
Do you pack or ship our merchandise?
Your warehouse handles physical fulfillment. We prepare the electronic records and required label files from its confirmed information.
