In Claude: Customize → Connectors → + Add → Add custom connector. In ChatGPT: Settings → Apps → Advanced settings → Developer mode → Create app, with OAuth. In Codex: `codex mcp add stacksync --url https://mcp.stacksync.com/mcp` then `codex mcp login stacksync`. Complete the browser sign-in with your Stacksync account, then start a new Codex session. In Claude Code: `claude mcp add --transport http stacksync https://mcp.stacksync.com/mcp`. Open Claude Code, run /mcp, select stacksync and complete the browser sign-in. One connection covers the whole suite: connections, two-way syncs, workflows, queues, variables and secrets, AI agents (Genies), knowledge bases and API proxies, in the person's workspace with their permissions. Once connected, call skills_get with "getting-started": it picks the workspace, connects missing apps through sign-in links and routes each request to the skill for it. Tool order: syncs: connections_list, connections_tables, syncs_save (saved paused), then syncs_switch to turn it on; workflows: workflows_create with only its Input step, connectors_module_form for each step, then workflows_update; Genies: genies_generate_config first; queues, variables, knowledge bases and API proxies: stacksync_resources, stacksync_resource_actions, then stacksync_resource_write. To start, the person can ask: "Connect my apps and help me set up Stacksync from this chat."

Implementation guide ## X12 880 mapping and validation X12 880 Grocery Products Invoice is used when grocery goods are ready for detail billing. Preserve invoice, grocery order and item so the grocery invoice in your business system stays connected to the original document. Use the version and implementation guide agreed with your trading partner to confirm required fields and responses. **Map records and test the business result** | Document or decision | Record and matching IDs | What to test | | --- | --- | --- | | Match the business record | **grocery invoice** invoice, grocery order and item | Define which combination of invoice, grocery order and item identifies one business record, its lines and any later revision. | | Update the receiving system | **Processing the grocery invoice** ID assigned by the receiving system and processing result | Reconcile quantity units and allowances before posting the invoice. Test a duplicate invoice while keeping an authorized correction traceable. | | Check the processing result | **Processing status for the grocery invoice** Original document reference and matching response | Reconcile the grocery invoice with the source after a timeout before sending it again. A lost response can occur after the destination has already processed the document. | ### How the related documents differ Each message represents a different business event. Use shared references to connect the records while tracking each message’s outcome separately. - [X12 875 Grocery Products Purchase Order](https://www.stacksync.com/edi/x12/875-grocery-products-purchase-order) **grocery purchase order:** a grocery buyer places an order. - [X12 879 Price Information](https://www.stacksync.com/edi/x12/879-price-information) **price information:** grocery or product pricing is distributed. - [X12 820 Payment Order/Remittance Advice](https://www.stacksync.com/edi/x12/820-payment-order-remittance-advice) **payment or remittance record:** payment instructions or allocation details are ready. ### Implementation steps 1. #### Choose the starting event and owner Decide which application acts when grocery goods are ready for detail billing. Name the operational owner of the grocery invoice and the team that resolves rejected or ambiguous messages. 2. #### Keep record IDs connected Map invoice, grocery order and item. Confirm qualifiers, code lists, units and date/time meaning against the agreed X12 version and partner guide. Preserve the source reference alongside any new destination identifier. 3. #### Test failures before launch Run the failure cases in the mapping table against realistic grocery invoice data. Check how the receiving system reports a rejection and how your team corrects it without creating a duplicate. 4. #### Track every document to completion Record transport delivery and document validation separately from successful grocery invoice processing. Give unresolved errors an owner and check the receiving system before approving retries. ### Go-live checklist - An approved 880 sample and the agreed version and partner guide are available. - The mapping tests pass with realistic grocery invoice data. - Each submitted document can be traced through delivery, validation and processing in the receiving system. - Your team knows how to investigate and recover a rejected or timed-out grocery invoice without processing it twice. ### Related documents and resources - [X12 875 Grocery Products Purchase Order](https://www.stacksync.com/edi/x12/875-grocery-products-purchase-order) - [X12 879 Price Information](https://www.stacksync.com/edi/x12/879-price-information) - [X12 820 Payment Order/Remittance Advice](https://www.stacksync.com/edi/x12/820-payment-order-remittance-advice) - [Field mapping workbook](https://www.stacksync.com/blog/two-way-sync-field-mapping-workbook) - [Production readiness checklist](https://www.stacksync.com/blog/two-way-sync-production-readiness-checklist) **Sources.** Sources reviewed 2026-09-15. - [X12 transaction-set directory](https://x12.org/products/transaction-sets) - [RFC 4130: AS2 and message receipts](https://www.rfc-editor.org/info/rfc4130/) Document structure ## X12 880 Grocery Products Invoice at the element level The X12 880 reference contains 33 segment entries and 180 data elements; 58 are marked mandatory in this reference.

EDI 880 is the X12 Grocery Products Invoice transaction set. Trading partners use it when grocery goods are ready for detail billing. It carries the data for the grocery invoice, and your system matches it on invoice, grocery order and item. ### Who sends an EDI 880 and who receives it? The supplier, manufacturer, or distributor sends the 880 to the grocery retailer or wholesaler after goods ship; the receiver returns a 997 Functional Acknowledgment. Your trading partner agreement confirms the direction and version for your account. ### When is an EDI 880 sent? Goods ship against a grocery purchase order and the supplier issues its payment request for the delivered products. Your partner guide sets any deadline or schedule for the document. ### What are the key segments in an EDI 880? Across 36 partner document references listed here, the business segments that appear most often include G01 (Invoice Identification), N1 (Party Identification), G72 (Allowance or Charge), G17 (Item Detail - Invoice), G31 (Total Invoice Quantity), G33 (Total Dollars Summary). Each partner guide sets which segments and elements your account must send. ### What is the difference between EDI 880 and EDI 875? The 880 carries the grocery invoice and is used when grocery goods are ready for detail billing. The 875 carries the grocery purchase order and is used when a grocery buyer places an order. ### What should I map for X12 880? Start with invoice, grocery order and item and the target grocery invoice. Define duplicate detection, allowed updates and response correlation before mapping individual fields. Use the partner guide to check required fields and their formats. ### How should I test 880 error handling? Reconcile quantity units and allowances before posting the invoice. Test a duplicate invoice while keeping an authorized correction traceable. Also test a lost response after destination processing so that a retry cannot create an unintended duplicate or repeated adjustment. ### Which partners list X12 880? The directory on this page links 33 partner entries that list this message. Choose your partner and channel, then confirm which messages and versions your account requires. ## Connect EDI to your business systems See how Stacksync can fit your enterprise EDI workflow.
