Trading Partner: Accurate Med
Article Link: https://help.truecommerce.com/en/articles/17174501-trading-partner-onboarding-accurate-med
Accurate Med is a healthcare Trading Partner that exchanges order and fulfillment data with their vendors through Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) — a standardized method for exchanging business documents electronically. Adding Accurate Med to your EDI network through TrueCommerce connects your business to this partner, enabling streamlined electronic transaction exchange directly with Accurate Med.
Accurate Med uses SPS Commerce, a third-party service, to manage compliance testing on their behalf. Ensuring the correct EDI ID is configured, and all SPS Commerce testing steps are completed will allow for a smooth Go-Live experience.
EDI IDs
Accurate Med 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 typically used by Accurate Med:
X12 Qualifier | EDI ID | Primary ID? |
ZZ | ACCURATEMED | Yes |
ZZ | TST1ACCURATEMED | No |
Accurate Med 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 Accurate Med to determine the proper EDI ID to use.
