Introduction

When working with department stores and other EDI receivers in Traede, each location must be set up correctly to ensure proper delivery and order management. This guide explains the two types of EDI receiver setups and how to configure them in Traede.

Types of EDI receivers

There are two ways to set up EDI receivers:

1. Individual customer cards per location – Each store or department has a separate customer entry in Traede.

   • Required for consignment setups where each store must have its own stock location.

   • Used when each location requires unique invoicing.
     
     

2. Single customer card with multiple addresses – One customer entry in Traede with multiple delivery addresses.

   • Used when a receiver has many locations but does not require individual customer cards.

   • Integration IDs are assigned to each delivery address to identify store locations.

Adding EDI receivers

1. Open the EDI app in Traede.

2. Scroll to the bottom of the screen to find the Receivers section.

3. Click Add New Receiver.

4. If using individual customer cards:

   • Create a separate customer entry for each location.

   • Assign the correct receiver in the EDI app.

5. If using a single customer card with multiple addresses:

   • Create the customer card.

   • Add all required store locations under the Addresses section.

   • Assign each store an Integration ID (store number from the EDI partner).

   • In the EDI app, select Use Address Integration ID when mapping the receiver.

Assigning department stores to customers

1. Select the newly created customer from the Receivers list.

2. On the left-hand side, choose the corresponding department store from the dropdown.

3. If using Integration IDs, select Use Address Integration ID.

4. Click Save to confirm your settings.

Selecting document types for each receiver

• Consignment setups require shipment delivery notes only.

• Sales setups require shipment delivery notes and invoices.

• Some EDI partners also require order confirmations (e.g., Boozt Fashion).

• Always check with your EDI partner to confirm required documents.

Best practice for managing locations

• If using individual customer cards, add each location separately.

• If using Integration IDs, ensure all store numbers are correctly assigned.

• Every time a new location is added, update the Receivers section in the EDI app.

• To simplify management, add all known locations from the beginning.

Next Steps

Once the department store receivers are set up, you can proceed with managing orders and shipments using Traede’s EDI system.
