How To Connect
Navigate to Sources from the left-hand menu.
Click the + button to add a new source and follow the prompts.
Select Land 'N' Sea. If unavailable, contact support.
Complete the EDI Questionnaire: Before integration begins,
download and submit the EDI questionnaire
. Processing takes 5-10 business days.
Enable GIS & Test FTP: Once approved, your inventory and pricing data will be available in a test environment.
Note: Land 'N' Sea provides a generic pricing and quantity feed that does not require a password. However, full EDI integration (with official credentials) is only available after approval.
Confirm your 846 feed accuracy in the test environment (this contains warehouse-specific inventory data) before placing a test order.
Note: The integration has been configured to process quantity values in the Item Warehouse file as integers when they include a trailing “.00”. If the quantity values include any other decimal fractions (for example, “.23” or “.45”), the system may not interpret them as intended. Additionally, please ensure that your EDI file includes the REF*WS segments to capture warehouse-specific quantity data; otherwise, these values will default to 0.
