How it works

Three steps to live Big Lots EDI.

Stacksync handles the complexity of Big Lots EDI so your team doesn't have to. Connect your ERP, WMS, or database through a simple API — we translate, validate, and deliver every transaction automatically.

  1. 01

    Connect your systems

    Plug Stacksync into your ERP, WMS, or database with a no-code connector. We handle authentication, schema discovery, and field mapping.

  2. 02

    Map to Big Lots guidelines

    We ship pre-built mappings for every Big Lots document type. Override any field, add custom validation, or extend with custom code.

  3. 03

    Send & receive in real time

    Stacksync translates, validates, and delivers every transaction over AS2, SFTP, or API. Watch every document flow live in the dashboard.

Why Stacksync

Built for EDI suppliers — not enterprise legacy.

From pre-built Big Lots mappings to real-time compliance checks, Stacksync removes the friction from EDI — so you can focus on growing your business.

  • Pre-built mappings

    Stacksync ships native mappings for every Big Lots document type. No more 6-week field-mapping projects.

  • Real-time monitoring

    Every transaction shows up in the dashboard the second it lands — with retry, revert, and replay built in.

  • No vendor lock-in

    Your data lives in your ERP/WMS/database. Stacksync is the translation layer, not the system of record.

  • Days, not months

    Most Big Lots suppliers go live in under a week. We migrate from SPS Commerce, TrueCommerce, Cleo and IBM Sterling.

FAQ

Big Lots EDI questions

What is Big Lots EDI?

Big Lots accepts EDI for 7 document types across 0 channels. Trading partners use EDI to exchange purchase orders, invoices, shipping notices, and acknowledgements with Big Lots programmatically — Stacksync handles the entire EDI exchange, validation, and translation into your ERP, WMS, or database.

Which EDI standards does Big Lots use?

Big Lots uses X12. Stacksync supports both X12 (the dominant North American standard) and EDIFACT (the dominant European and global shipping standard) for every connected trading partner. Channel-specific implementation guidelines from Big Lots are pre-built into the Stacksync connector and validated on every outbound transaction.

Which transaction codes does Big Lots support?

Big Lots supports 7 transaction codes in total. The most common include: 856, 204, 990, 810, 214, 850, 860. Each code is mapped to its business-record equivalent (purchase order, ASN, invoice, etc.) inside Stacksync, so EDI exchanges land directly in your ERP or warehouse without manual translation.

How long does Big Lots EDI integration take with Stacksync?

Most Big Lots EDI integrations go live in 3 to 10 business days. The Stacksync team handles partner enrolment, channel certification, transaction-set mapping per Big Lots's implementation guide, and end-to-end testing. Complex multi-channel deployments or custom transaction sets take 2 to 4 weeks. Cutover is zero-downtime and parallel-run validated.
