Emery Jensen EDI Integration

July 20, 2026

Summary

Emery Jensen Distribution is an EDI source integration in Flxpoint that connects over a custom FTP connection. It downloads EDI 810 invoice files from Emery Jensen and creates the corresponding Flxpoint invoices, using a mapping template to align Emery Jensen's invoice fields with Flxpoint's. Configure the FTP connection plus EDI sender/receiver qualifiers, IDs and remote folders, then build the field mapping to complete setup.

Get Invoices (810)
Downloads EDI 810 invoice files from Emery Jensen and creates Flxpoint invoices.
Get Shipments (856)
Downloads EDI 856 shipment files from Emery Jensen - tracking and ship confirmations - into Flxpoint.
Get FR Acknowledgements (855)
Downloads EDI 855 purchase-order acknowledgements confirming how Emery Jensen will act on each order.

Emery Jensen connects over a single custom FTP connection with EDI settings. Add an Emery Jensen source, choose Emery Jensen Distribution from Standard/Custom Integrations for the process you're configuring, then enter the Connection Name, FTP Protocol, Host, Port, User and Password, click Test ConnectionSave Connection, and set the EDI qualifiers/IDs and remote folders before building a field mapping template.

For FTPS connections returning a 534 SSL policy error, enable Use Unbuffered Private Data Channel in Advanced Settings. For extended setup guidance, contact support@flxpoint.com.

Cancellations depend on the ACK code

R4 cancels line items. If all items are cancelled the order is treated as fully cancelled; if only some are, Flxpoint marks it a partial cancellation.

Unknown ACK codes default to Acknowledged

If an 855 carries a status code beyond the common ones, Flxpoint defaults it to Acknowledged so orders keep processing — review acks to catch silent changes.

FTPS 534 error has a fix

For secure FTPS connections that return 534 Policy requires SSL, enable Use Unbuffered Private Data Channel in Advanced Settings.

Qualifiers and IDs must match on both sides

Get Shipments, Acks, and Invoices each need the correct Our/Their Sender/Receiver Qualifier and ID plus inbound/outbound folders, or files will not exchange.

What does the Emery Jensen integration bring in?
Three inbound processes: shipments via 856, PO acknowledgements via 855, and invoices via 810.
How do I connect it?
Add a source, choose Emery Jensen Distribution, enter and test the FTP credentials, set the EDI qualifiers/IDs and folders, then build the mapping template.
What does an R4 acknowledgement do?
R4 cancels the item. All items cancelled means a full cancellation; some cancelled means a partial cancellation.
