“A supplier operations team can see partner setup, validation, exceptions, and QuickBooks handoff in one workspace instead of chasing spreadsheets.”
Go-live
EDI API go-live checklist
Sandbox to production checklist: API keys, partner profiles, test transactions, certification, and production cutover.
Sandbox readiness
Prove your integration: outbound POST succeeds, webhooks verify signatures, validation errors are handled, and operators see lifecycle in the dashboard.
- SIGNALEDI_API_KEY in CI secrets
- Webhook handler idempotent on X-SignalEDI-Delivery-ID
- Error alerting on document.error events
Partner profile and test transactions
Each trading partner needs an isolated profile. Send required test documents (often 850, 856, 810) and capture ack webhooks as evidence.
Certification and production keys
After partner approval, mint production API keys, update webhook URLs, and switch partnerId references from sandbox to production profiles.
Two-phase truth
SignalEDI can have your API path partner-ready in days, not weeks. Partner mailbox approval is partner-controlled and frequently takes weeks.
