Trading Partner: Save-a-Lot


If you are looking to implement Save-a-Lot as a Trading Partner within your Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) network, this article will provide you with an understanding of the requirements, preliminary and next steps, as well as commonly used transaction types.


EDI IDs


Save-a-Lot utilizes the following EDI ID for identification purposes. This EDI ID is 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 ID used by Save-a-Lot.
