Wayfair Supplier Onboarding Checklist

What SBSA handles for you — end to end

1
Trading partner setup

SBSA registers your organization with Wayfair's EDI team and establishes your Supplier ID and ISA credentials.

2
AS2 or SFTP connection

We configure and test your preferred protocol — AS2 certificates, SFTP keys, and endpoint validation all handled by SBSA.

3
ERP mapping & field translation

Every Wayfair-required segment mapped to your ERP or WMS data fields — no manual re-keying.

4
Test cycle with Wayfair

SBSA manages the Wayfair EDI test cycle, resolves errors, and obtains production approval on your behalf.

5
Go-live & monitoring

24/7 transaction monitoring, exception alerts, and ongoing compliance updates as Wayfair revises its EDI specs.

1
ASN must precede shipment arrival

The 856 ASN must be transmitted before goods arrive at the CastleGate DC or customer address — not after departure.

2
One ASN per shipment

Never combine multiple POs into one ASN unless explicitly approved. One shipment, one ASN, one destination.

3
Tracking number mandatory

Valid carrier tracking number or PRO/BOL number must be included in the 856 for every shipment.

4
Zero-quantity lines are non-compliant

Do not include items with quantity 0 in the ASN. Remove unfulfillable lines entirely.

5
SBSA automates ASN at ship event

SBSA triggers the 856 automatically when your WMS or ERP records the shipment — eliminating manual errors.

1
753/754 routing exchange required

CastleGate shipments require a Request for Routing Instructions (753) before booking carriers — unique to Wayfair.

2
Wayfair-assigned carrier only

You must ship on the carrier and routing instructions provided in Wayfair's 754 response. No substitutions.

3
GS1-128 carton labels required

Every carton must carry a Wayfair-compliant GS1-128 label generated from your ASN data.

4
Appointment required at DC

CastleGate DCs require pre-scheduled delivery appointments. Your carrier must confirm before arrival.

5
SBSA manages 753/754 loop

SBSA automates the full routing request-response cycle so your team never touches it manually.

1
EDI 810 required for all product invoices

All standard product invoices to Wayfair must be transmitted as EDI 810 — no paper or email invoices.

2
Invoice within required window

Wayfair requires invoices to be transmitted promptly after shipment. SBSA triggers the 810 automatically after ASN confirmation.

3
PO number must match exactly

Invoice PO references must exactly match the original 850. Mismatches result in payment delays and chargebacks.

4
Quantity must match ASN

Invoice quantities must match what was shipped — never invoice for items not included in the 856 ASN.

5
820 remittance advice inbound

SBSA processes Wayfair's 820 payment remittance and posts payment details back into your ERP automatically.

North America's Largest Online Home Goods Retailer

Wayfair operates one of the world's largest online home furnishings and décor marketplaces, with over 40 million products from more than 20,000 suppliers. Unlike traditional brick-and-mortar retailers, Wayfair's model blends its own CastleGate fulfillment network with a massive dropship supplier base — making EDI precision and ASN compliance mission-critical for every supplier.

Home Goods & Furniture Specialist

Wayfair carries over 40 million SKUs spanning furniture, décor, lighting, kitchen, bedding, outdoor, and more. Its customer base is primarily B2C, which means order volumes are high, lead times are tight, and ASN accuracy directly impacts the customer experience.

40M+ SKUs B2C Focused Home & Décor

CastleGate Fulfillment Network

CastleGate (Fulfillment by Wayfair) is Wayfair's proprietary warehouse network. Suppliers ship inventory in bulk to CastleGate DCs, and Wayfair handles last-mile delivery. CastleGate orders require the 753/754 routing exchange — a step unique to Wayfair and not required by most other retailers.

Perigold & AllModern Subsidiaries

Wayfair's portfolio includes Perigold (luxury home furnishings) and AllModern (contemporary design), both operating as separate brands under the Wayfair trading partner umbrella. SBSA supports all three Wayfair banners from a single integration with shared ERP mapping.

How Your Data Reaches Wayfair

Wayfair supports AS2 and SFTP for EDI document exchange. SBSA Technology configures, maintains, and monitors both protocols — your team never needs to manage certificates, endpoints, or connectivity issues.

SFTP

Secure File Transfer Protocol

An alternative to AS2 for suppliers preferring file-based exchange. SFTP provides encrypted file transfer over SSH. SBSA manages key exchange, directory polling, and automated file processing.

  • SSH key authentication: — no password exposure
  • Automated polling: — SBSA monitors directories continuously
  • Batch-friendly: — suitable for high-volume dropship operations
  • Scheduled or event-triggered: — configurable to your workflow
  • SBSA managed: — key rotation and monitoring included

VAN

Indirect EDI Exchange

If your current EDI provider uses a VAN, SBSA can bridge your existing VAN connection to Wayfair's AS2 or SFTP endpoint. No disruption to your other trading partner relationships during transition.

  • VAN-to-AS2 bridging: — transparent to your existing setup
  • Retain existing connections: — only Wayfair traffic is rerouted
  • Cost optimization: — reduce VAN transaction fees long-term
  • Migration path: — SBSA can transition to direct AS2 over time
  • All major VANs supported: — SPS, TrueCommerce, DiCentral, more

Wayfair EDI Integration EDI Transaction Set

SBSA Technology supports core and supplemental Wayfair EDI Integration EDI documents. Critical transactions are highlighted because they carry the highest compliance risk when transmitted incorrectly or late.

Wayfair EDI FAQ

Common questions from furniture and home goods suppliers beginning their Wayfair EDI compliance journey.

Wayfair suppliers operate under three primary models: (1) CastleGate Fulfillment by Wayfair (FBW) — you ship bulk inventory to Wayfair's CastleGate distribution centers, and Wayfair handles storage, picking, and last-mile delivery; (2) Direct Fulfillment — you ship individual orders directly to end customers using Wayfair-assigned carriers, with Wayfair-branded packing slips; and (3) Dropship — you fulfill orders from your own warehouse under Wayfair's brand. Each model has distinct EDI requirements — CastleGate uniquely requires the 753/754 routing exchange. SBSA supports all three models from a single integration.

Wayfair enforces strict ASN compliance. Any shipment received at a CastleGate DC or delivered to a customer without a prior ASN — or with an ASN that arrives after the goods — will trigger automatic chargebacks against your account. Repeated non-compliance affects your supplier scorecard and can result in order reductions. SBSA transmits the 856 ASN automatically on the day of shipment, preventing this scenario entirely without any manual action from your warehouse team.

The 753/754 is a routing instruction exchange specific to Wayfair's CastleGate program. Before you can book a carrier for a CastleGate shipment, you must send Wayfair a 753 Request for Routing Instructions. Wayfair responds with a 754 that specifies which carrier to use and the SCAC code to embed in your ASN. Shipping on a carrier other than the one Wayfair assigns in the 754 is a compliance violation. Most other retailers do not require this exchange — it is one of the most common EDI gaps SBSA helps new Wayfair suppliers address. SBSA fully automates the 753/754 loop so your team never has to manage it manually.

Yes — SBSA Technology is an Intuit Silver Partner for both QuickBooks Online and QuickBooks Enterprise. This certification means our integrations are built on Intuit's certified API tier, receive priority technical support, and are maintained with every QuickBooks platform update. For Wayfair suppliers using QuickBooks, SBSA automates PO ingestion into QuickBooks sales orders, invoice generation from shipment data, and posting of Wayfair's 820 remittance advice into your accounts receivable — with no manual data entry. This is the most common ERP integration path for small and mid-sized home goods suppliers.

Wayfair expects orders to ship complete when possible. If you cannot fulfil certain items, you must reflect this in your EDI 855 PO Acknowledgment — updating quantities or providing a revised availability date at the item level. For the ASN, never include a line item with a quantity of zero — remove the unfulfillable line entirely, as a zero-quantity line is a non-compliant data entry and will be rejected. Backordered items should not be cancelled without communicating with Wayfair's supplier relations team first. SBSA's integration handles partial fulfillment logic automatically, ensuring your ASN and invoice only reflect what was actually shipped.

Yes. Perigold (Wayfair's luxury home furnishings brand) and AllModern (contemporary design) both operate under Wayfair's supplier program with shared EDI infrastructure. SBSA supports all three Wayfair banners simultaneously — we set up your EDI connections for Wayfair, Perigold, and AllModern from a single integration, sharing the same ERP mapping layer to minimize setup effort. Each brand is monitored separately for compliance, but your team manages everything through one platform.
