Every one is mandatory and every one has rules. Mismatched DESADV against an ORDERS is the #1 cause of supplier chargebacks. Aduno validates everything before Tesco sees it.
The purchase order Tesco sends you. Inbound via EDIFACT. Aduno receives it, parses it, and pushes it straight into your order management system.
The advance shipping notice (ASN) you must send back, with SSCC pallet labels, GTINs, and quantities matching the PO. Tesco rejects the delivery if it doesn’t match.
The invoice — must reference the PO and the DESADV. Mismatched line items mean an automatic chargeback.
Goods receipt confirmation and the functional acknowledgement that proves Tesco accepted your message. Aduno generates and validates both automatically.
Fixed scope, fixed price. We handle the AS2 setup, the AI handles the mapping, and we monitor the first 50 transactions end-to-end.
We confirm your Tesco supplier number, the SKUs in scope, and the systems on your side (your ERP, WMS, or even just a spreadsheet — we’ll connect it).
We set up the EDI transport (AS2 or VAN), register your GLN, and our AI builds the EDIFACT mappings for every required document type.
Test transactions against Tesco’s EDI test environment. Every ORDERS gets a matching DESADV and INVOIC, every code valid, every total balanced.
First production PO from Tesco flows end-to-end. We monitor the next 50 transactions and catch any chargeback risk before it costs you money.
SPS Commerce, OpenText, TrueCommerce. Same outcome — very different time, price, and lock-in.
Yes. Tesco accepts EDI from any compliant provider — they don’t mandate a specific vendor. The named providers are recommendations, not requirements. Aduno connects via standard AS2 or VAN, exactly the same as the incumbents.
Aduno’s AI mapping connects to anything that exposes data — REST APIs, CSV exports, even PDFs. You don’t need an ERP that “speaks EDI”; we translate.
This is where Aduno earns its money. Every DESADV is validated against the original PO before it leaves your system. If quantities don’t match or SSCC codes are malformed, we catch it inline and surface it to your team — before Tesco does.
Tesco UK and Tesco Ireland use the same EDI standard, so yes. Tesco Central Europe (Czech Republic, Hungary, Slovakia) uses different tenant codes and message variants — we support those too, but it’s worth a scoping call to confirm.
If we don’t have you sending validated test transactions to Tesco’s EDI test environment within 14 days of kickoff, your fee is refunded. The actual go-live date depends on Tesco’s onboarding queue — we don’t control that — but we guarantee we’ll be ready when they are.
Yes. The same Aduno platform connects to Sainsbury’s, Asda, Morrisons, Waitrose, Ocado, and the foodservice wholesalers (Brakes, Bidfood). One subscription, every retailer. That’s the main reason brands move off single-retailer EDI tools.
