YieldSentinel's EDI Leakage Diagnostic analyzes chargebacks, EDI logs, invoices, shipment files, ASN data, and trading partner requirements to uncover compliance gaps, cost inefficiencies, and lost-money drivers — before they become recurring deductions.
CSV-first · Browser-based · No integration project required
They show up as small, recurring leaks: a late ASN, a missing PO reference, a quantity mismatch, a rejected invoice, a routing guide violation. Over time those issues become margin leakage, manual rework, customer friction, and operational noise.
Identify which customers, SKUs, locations, or error types are driving avoidable deductions — and separate preventable from disputable claims.
Group EDI errors by root cause so operations teams can fix the process, not just the ticket — and stop the same failure recurring each cycle.
Compare order, invoice, shipment, and ASN data to find recurring discrepancies before they become disputed deductions or lost relationships.
Extract key requirements from partner specs and flag where current processes, data formats, or timing fall short of compliance standards.
Start with CSVs, spreadsheets, EDI logs, retailer chargeback reports, invoice exports, shipment files, ASN data, or trading partner PDFs. No reformatting required.
YieldSentinel classifies errors, compares operational data, ranks customer and SKU impact, and highlights repeated failure patterns driving the most cost.
See top lost-money drivers, estimated annualized impact, preventable vs. disputable deduction splits, and recommended corrective actions — ready for leadership or your EDI team.
Designed to analyze the exports and documents that already exist in your EDI portals, ERP, WMS, TMS, and retailer systems.
Example findings from a mid-market manufacturer with 7 retail trading partners. Fictional but representative.

42% of deductions tied to ASN timing issues across three major trading partners. ASN creation occurs after physical ship date in current workflow.
Top recurring root cause: item master and unit-of-measure mismatches affecting 12 SKUs. Retailer A shows 4.8× the average deduction rate.
Non-compliant carrier selection across 3 DC locations generating systematic penalty deductions. Not currently flagged in ERP.
Standardizing ship-date logic between ERP, warehouse, and ASN workflow would eliminate the largest single source of chargebacks within 30 days.
Review ASN creation timing for top 3 customers by deduction value. Update item master UOM for 12 affected SKUs. Validate carrier selection logic at DC level.

AI does not replace EDI infrastructure. It helps teams understand requirements, classify failures, detect patterns, and turn messy operational data into decisions.
You do not need a six-month integration project to find where EDI is costing you money. Start with a chargeback file, EDI error log, invoice export, ASN report, or trading partner spec.
Best first fit: manufacturers and distributors with retailer chargebacks, recurring EDI errors, or unexplained invoice and shipment disputes.
