ALDI US (via OpenText) is routed through OpenText
Stacksync maintains a certified OpenText connection covering 3 trading partners across 3 channels. Onboarding with Aldi on this channel reuses that connection — no separate VAN contract or certification cycle.
OpenText Trading Grid is the EDI messaging service of OpenText Business Network, which OpenText describes as the world's largest business network. Large buying organizations across retail, automotive, and logistics route purchase orders, invoices, ship notices, and transportation documents through it, and suppliers connect via a network mailbox or a direct connection. Documents follow ANSI X12 and EDIFACT standards, with both self-service and fully managed onboarding options.
Connecting via OpenText
- Set up a Trading Grid account, either directly with OpenText or through the buying organization's supplier-enablement program, and complete the service agreement.
- Establish connectivity: a Trading Grid mailbox or a direct AS2, SFTP, FTPS, or HTTPS connection. AS2 setups include exchanging IDs and signing and encryption certificates with the Trading Grid Messaging Service (TGMS).
- Map documents to the buyer's ANSI X12 or EDIFACT implementation guides, using self-service tooling or OpenText managed services.
- Run the buyer's test cycle over the network and verify transaction processing and delivery before production cutover.
Testing: There is no single network-wide certification; testing follows the buying organization's implementation guides and test plan. Connectivity is validated first (for AS2, certificate exchange with the Trading Grid Messaging Service), then document-level tests run with each trading partner. OpenText notices also expect partners to verify transaction processing and delivery after connectivity or certificate changes.
Timeline: No standard public timeline. OpenText cites a retail customer onboarding international vendors in as little as five working days; direct ERP-integrated connections typically take longer and are paced by the buying organization's test plan.
