Our EDI experts handle your complete ALDI EDI setup, from initial connectivity and testing to final approval with ALDI's supplier team. For businesses that want deeper automation, our technical team integrates ALDI's 850, 855, 856, and 810 transactions directly into your ERP system, so orders, ship notices, and invoices move without manual entry and your shipments reach ALDI distribution centers fully compliant.

We review ALDI's EDI implementation guides, your ERP system, and your current order workflow to choose the right integration approach for your business.
We build EDI maps to ALDI's specifications, including item and case-pack cross-references, distribution center ship-to locations, and GS1-128 pallet and carton labels.
We run end-to-end testing with ALDI and validate every transaction set, so each document is approved before your first production order arrives.

"From the very beginning, their team demonstrated deep technical expertise and a clear understanding of retail compliance requirements. They worked closely with ours to ensure smooth mapping, testing, and validation across all required documents including POs, ASNs, invoices, and acknowledgements. What stood out most was their hands-on support during integration into our ERP system — they took the time to understand our workflows and customized the setup to ensure everything functioned properly with minimal disruption. If you are looking for a reliable EDI partner, I highly recommend Infocon Systems."

ALDI EDI is the electronic exchange of purchase orders, ship notices, invoices, and related documents between ALDI and its suppliers using ANSI X12 standards. Instead of emails or manual entry, orders and invoices move system to system. Infocon Systems provides fully managed ALDI EDI, handling connectivity, mapping, testing, and daily monitoring so suppliers stay compliant without building an in-house EDI team.
ALDI suppliers typically exchange the 850 Purchase Order, 855 Purchase Order Acknowledgment, 856 Advance Ship Notice, 810 Invoice, 820 Remittance Advice, and 997 Functional Acknowledgment. Depending on the program, ALDI may also use the 860 Purchase Order Change, 852 Product Activity Data, and 864 Text Message, along with GS1-128 shipping labels. Infocon Systems supports every ALDI transaction set and adds new documents whenever ALDI requires them.
Suppliers that ship product to ALDI distribution centers are expected to receive orders and send ship notices and invoices electronically, and the exact documents are confirmed during supplier onboarding. Infocon Systems works from ALDI's current implementation guides and gets new and existing suppliers tested and approved, whether you have used EDI for years or ALDI is your first EDI trading partner.
Most suppliers are tested and live with ALDI within a few weeks, and timing depends mainly on ALDI's testing schedule and how deep your ERP integration goes. Infocon Systems manages the full process, including connectivity setup, document mapping, test cycles with ALDI, and go-live, so your team is not slowed down by the technical work.
Yes. ALDI EDI documents can flow directly into and out of your ERP, accounting, or warehouse system so purchase orders arrive as sales orders and invoices and ship notices are generated from your own data. Infocon Systems integrates ALDI EDI with any ERP, including NetSuite, SAP, Microsoft Dynamics, Sage, QuickBooks, and Acumatica, as well as custom and legacy systems.
ALDI uses the 856 Advance Ship Notice to plan receiving at its distribution centers, and the ASN must match the cartons and pallets that arrive, which are identified with GS1-128 (UCC-128) labels. Infocon Systems generates ALDI-compliant GS1-128 labels and packing slips alongside the ASN so your shipment data and physical labels always agree, which helps prevent receiving delays and chargebacks.
ALDI EDI pricing depends on how many trading partners you connect, your document volume, and whether you need ERP integration. Infocon Systems offers straightforward pricing with no per-transaction fees, and setup, mapping, testing, and ongoing support are included in the managed service.
