Trading Partner: Gap Inc.
Gap Inc. is a global retail company whose Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) network requires suppliers to meet specific connection and compliance standards before transactions can be exchanged. When adding Gap Inc. as a new Trading Partner within Transaction Manager, understanding their Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) identification, connection requirements, and compliance testing process is essential to a successful implementation.
Gap Inc. conducts compliance testing directly — meaning your Implementation Specialist will work with their Business-to-Business (B2B)/EDI team to confirm connection methods and verify identification details prior to Go-Live. Selecting the correct EDI ID and completing testing in the correct order are critical steps in ensuring your EDI transactions route properly.
EDI IDs
Gap Inc. 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 Gap Inc.:
X12 Qualifier | EDI ID | Primary ID? |
01 | 0486269150AS2 | Yes |
ZZ | TESTGAPAS2 | No |
ZZ | TESTGAP | No |
01 | 0486269150 | No |
Gap Inc. 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 Gap Inc. to determine the proper EDI ID to use.
