Trading Partner: Byram Vendor
Article Link: https://help.truecommerce.com/en/articles/16863159-trading-partner-onboarding-byram-vendor
Byram Vendor, also known as Byram Healthcare, is a medical supply distributor that exchanges order and fulfillment data with vendors through Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) — a standardized method for transferring business documents electronically. Adding Byram Vendor as a Trading Partner in your EDI network requires completing specific connectivity and compliance testing steps before transactions can begin flowing.
Before TrueCommerce can begin onboarding Byram Vendor into Transaction Manager, you will need to engage directly with Byram Vendor to confirm your EDI setup details, gather any required specification documents, and initiate the compliance testing process.
EDI IDs
Byram Vendor 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 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 Byram Vendor:
X12 Qualifier | EDI ID | Primary ID? |
ZZ | BYRAMUSP | Yes |
ZZ | ACHBYRAPR | No |
Byram Vendor 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 Byram Vendor to determine the proper EDI ID to use.
