Trading Partner: Dollar General


EDI IDs


Dollar General 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 EDI transaction that is sent or received.

The table, below, lists the most common EDI IDs used by Dollar General.

Dollar General 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 Dollar General to determine the proper EDI ID to use.


Preliminary Steps


Dollar General will require vendors to complete their DG Profile form and return to their team to begin the EDI testing and setup process. Once that is completed, Dollar General will also send an EDI Agreement for signature to their vendor. After those steps are completed, EDI testing will begin.


Direct Trading Partner Testing


Dollar General requires you to complete compliance testing before Go-Live. Please 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.
