Trading Partner: Marshalls


Adding Marshalls as a new Trading Partner to your Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) network requires completing a series of preliminary steps, compliance testing, and understanding the transaction types Marshalls expects.

Marshalls is part of the TJX family of brands and utilizes the DiCentral testing portal for compliance verification prior to Go-Live.

TJ Maxx, HomeGoods and Marshalls follow the same onboarding process.


EDI IDs


Marshalls 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.

Below is a list of the most common EDI IDs typically used by Marshalls:

X12 Qualifier

EDI ID

Primary ID?

ZZ

MARSHALLSAS2

Yes

Marshalls 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 Marshalls to determine the proper EDI ID to use.


Preliminary Steps


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

  • Email: [email protected] with the subject: [Vendor Name] – TJX New Connection Request

  • Follow: the TJX Compliance Registration Guide to complete your portal registration and ensure all required steps are completed prior to compliance testing, including registering for testing on the DiCentral testing portal (DiCentral is a third-party EDI compliance testing platform used by Marshalls to validate EDI transactions prior to Go-Live).

  • Once these preliminary steps are complete, your Marshalls Implementation Project will be ready to proceed to the Portal Testing phase.


Portal Testing


Marshalls requires you to complete compliance testing before Go-Live. Testing is hosted on the DiCentral testing portal. Please refer to the Next Steps section below for detailed instructions and expectations.

If you prefer, TrueCommerce can conduct and complete compliance testing on your behalf.

If so, please provide the following information:

  • URL for the DiCentral testing portal

  • Username for the DiCentral testing portal

  • Password for the DiCentral testing portal


Commonly Used Transactions


Below is a list of the most commonly used Transactions by Marshalls:

The Invoice (810) is submitted via Transcepta.


Next Steps


Once the purchase of the Marshalls plug-in is complete, your Implementation Specialist will reach out to schedule time to complete and/or coordinate a plan for compliance testing and/or Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system integration testing.
