Trading Partner: Aldi Partner


EDI IDs


Aldi Partner utilizes the following Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) IDs for identification purposes. These EDI IDs are made up of a Qualifier and an ID which will be sent within their Interchange Control Header, ISA segment, on your inbound transactions. This allows Transaction Manager to be able to identify the Sender and Receiver of any sent/received EDI transaction.

The table, below, lists the most common EDI IDs used by Aldi Partner.

Aldi Partner will expect a specific EDI ID based on your business relationship with them. Selecting the wrong EDI ID will result in EDI Transactions not being sent or received.

You will need to work with Aldi Partner to determine the proper EDI ID to use.


Preliminary Steps


Before TrueCommerce is able to begin onboarding Aldi Partner into Transaction Manager, you will need to perform the following actions to kick off your Trading Partner Implementation Project:

  • Aldi Partner requires testing to be conducted through the OpenText testing portal.

  • Please email the Aldi EDI team at [email protected] for assistance with obtaining access to the testing portal.

  • TrueCommerce will collaborate with your team to obtain any company specific details that are needed for this phase of the implementation.


Portal Testing


Aldi Partner requires you to complete compliance testing before Go-Live. Refer to the Next Steps section in this article for detailed instructions and expectations. If you prefer, TrueCommerce can conduct and complete compliance testing on your behalf, in which case you will need to provide the following information:

  • URL for the OpenText testing portal

  • Username for the OpenText testing portal

  • Password for the OpenText testing portal
