EDI IDs


Sephora 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 sent/received EDI transaction.

The table, below, lists the most common EDI IDs used by Sephora:

X12 Qualifier

EDI ID

Primary ID?

12

4159772900

Yes

ZZ

CLSEPHORA

No

01

SEPHORATEST

No

Sephora 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 Sephora to determine the proper EDI ID to use.


Preliminary Steps


In order to begin the EDI process, Sephora will contact vendors directly. Once your organization has signed a contract with Sephora and has been assigned a vendor number, their EDI team will contact your organization to begin the EDI Setup process.


Portal Testing


Sephora requires you to complete compliance testing before Go-Live. Please refer to the Next Steps section of this article for detailed instructions and expectations. If you prefer, TrueCommerce can conduct and complete compliance testing on your behalf, in which case you will need to provide the following information:

  • Username for the OpenText testing portal

  • Password for the OpenText testing portal


Commonly Used Transactions

Next Steps


Once the purchase of the Sephora 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.
