Land 'N' Sea as a Source

July 17, 2026

Summary

Land 'N' Sea is a marine and powersports products distributor connected via FTP and EDI. Before configuring the integration, submit Land 'N' Sea's EDI questionnaire — approval takes 5–10 business days and unlocks full order-operation credentials, while Get Inventory (Primary) works with no connection setup required. The integration covers Get Inventory (Primary and Secondary), Send Fulfillment Requests, Get Fulfillment Acknowledgements, Get Invoices, and Get Shipments over EDI (850/855/856/810).

Get Inventory (Primary)
Imports Land 'N' Sea's full product catalog, pricing and dimensions.
Get Inventory (Secondary)
Refreshes per-warehouse quantities from Land 'N' Sea's 846 EDI feed.
Send Fulfillment Requests
Sends dropship orders to Land 'N' Sea via EDI 850.
Get Fulfillment Acknowledgements
Reads Land 'N' Sea's order acceptance status via EDI 855.
Get Invoices
Imports Land 'N' Sea invoices for reconciliation via EDI 810.
Get Shipments
Pulls Land 'N' Sea's ship date and tracking via EDI 856.

Land 'N' Sea requires an approved EDI questionnaire before full credentials are issued (see Important Notes). Get Inventory (Primary) works automatically with no connection setup. For every other operation, add a Land 'N' Sea source, start configuring an operation, and when Flxpoint prompts you click + New Connection, enter the SFTP and EDI trading-partner values Land 'N' Sea provided, then Test ConnectionSave Connection.

SFTP / EDI Connection
HostRequired
The Land 'N' Sea SFTP server hostname. Issued once your EDI questionnaire is approved — not needed for Get Inventory (Primary), which runs automatically.
PortRequired
The SFTP port Land 'N' Sea provides for the connection.
UserRequired
Your Land 'N' Sea SFTP username.
PasswordRequired
Your Land 'N' Sea SFTP password.
Inbound Remote File FolderOptional
The remote folder Land 'N' Sea delivers 846/855/856/810 files to — confirm the exact path with Land 'N' Sea for each operation you configure.
Outbound Remote File FolderOptional
The remote folder Flxpoint writes outbound 850 purchase orders to.
EDI Trading Partner Settings (ISA/GS identifiers)
Our QualifierRequired
Flxpoint's EDI qualifier used with Land 'N' Sea. Value: ZZ.
Our IDRequired
Flxpoint's EDI sender/receiver ID used with Land 'N' Sea. Value: FLXPOINT.
Their QualifierRequired
Land 'N' Sea's EDI qualifier. Value: 12.
Their IDRequired
Land 'N' Sea's EDI sender/receiver ID. Use 9549720473T for Get Inventory (Secondary) and Get Invoices, or 9549720473 for Send Fulfillment Requests and Get Shipments.
Order TypeRequired
DS (Dropship) or SA (Stand Alone Order) — controls which N104 value Send Fulfillment Requests uses. Confirm with Land 'N' Sea which applies to your account.
Get Inventory (Primary) is a Flxpoint-managed feed and needs no connection setup. Every other operation needs the SFTP/EDI credentials above, which Land 'N' Sea only issues after your EDI questionnaire is approved (5–10 business days) — see Important Notes. When configuring Get Inventory (Secondary), select only the warehouses you actually stock from; any warehouse you don't select is excluded from the summed quantity. For extended operation setup and field mapping beyond connection, contact support@flxpoint.com.

EDI questionnaire required — 5–10 business day approval before integration can be configured

Before any integration work begins, download and submit the EDI questionnaire — contact support@flxpoint.com for the template. Land 'N' Sea must approve the EDI setup before they issue full FTP credentials or allow live order transmission. The generic pricing/quantity feed is publicly available without credentials, but order operations (Send FR, Get Shipments, Get Ack, Get Invoices) require approved EDI credentials. A test order must be placed and confirmed before switching to production.

GIS uses 846 EDI files in Item-Warehouse format — Warehouse-Item format is not supported

Get Inventory Secondary reads 846 EDI files from the configured FTP folder. These files must be in Item-Warehouse format (e.g., 846_X12_item_whse.edi). The Warehouse-Item format is not supported and will fail to parse correctly. Confirm with Land 'N' Sea that your 846 feed is configured for Item-Warehouse before activating GIS.

EDI 850 Send FR uses GS08 = 004010VICS — fixed as of April 23, 2026

Land 'N' Sea's EDI system requires Group Version 004010VICS in the GS08 segment of EDI 850 files. Prior to April 23, 2026, Flxpoint sent 004010, causing rejections. This was corrected and all Send FR submissions now automatically use 004010VICS — no user action is needed. If you experienced rejected orders before this date, resubmit those FRs.

REF*WS segments required for warehouse-specific quantities — missing segments default to 0

Warehouse-specific quantities in the 846 EDI file depend on REF*WS segments being present for each warehouse. If these segments are missing from Land 'N' Sea's feed, warehouse quantities will default to 0 even if stock exists. Additionally, quantity values must be integers or include only a trailing ".00" — other decimal fractions (e.g., ".23") may not parse correctly.

Send FR EDI 850 rejected by Land 'N' Sea — GS08 version mismatch (pre-April 2026)
If Land 'N' Sea rejected EDI 850 files with an error about an incorrect Group Version, this was caused by the GS08 segment sending 004010 instead of the required 004010VICS. This issue was corrected on April 23, 2026 — all EDI 850 files now automatically use 004010VICS. No user configuration change is needed. If you had orders rejected before this date, resubmit those FRs from Flxpoint and they should now transmit correctly.
GIS showing 0 quantities for all warehouses
Zero warehouse quantities from GIS most commonly mean: (1) the 846 EDI file is in Warehouse-Item format rather than the required Item-Warehouse format — confirm with Land 'N' Sea and request the correct file format; (2) REF*WS segments are missing from the 846 file — these segments carry warehouse-specific quantity data; without them all warehouse quantities default to 0; (3) the Inbound Remote File Folder path is incorrect — confirm the folder where Land 'N' Sea delivers 846 files matches your GIS configuration.
FTP connection failing — credentials not yet issued or approval pending
If Test Connection fails and you have not yet submitted or received approval on the EDI questionnaire, Land 'N' Sea has not yet issued your full FTP credentials. The generic pricing/quantity feed is available without credentials, but full EDI credentials (needed for Send FR, Get Shipments, Get Ack, Get Invoices) require the questionnaire to be approved first. Allow 5–10 business days from questionnaire submission. If approval is complete and the connection still fails, verify the FTP Host, Port, Username, and Password match what Land 'N' Sea provided.

What are the Sender/Receiver ID values used across all Land 'N' Sea EDI operations?
All Land 'N' Sea operations use the same EDI identifiers: Our Sender/Receiver ID: FLXPOINT, Qualifier: ZZ. Their Sender/Receiver ID: 9549720473T (used for GIP, GIS, Get Invoices) or 9549720473 (used for Send FR and Get Shipments), Qualifier: 12. For Get Invoices, both Inbound and Outbound Remote File Folders are typically /lns-invoices.
What warehouses does Land 'N' Sea support and what does each operation cover?
GIP downloads DSEDIIM.ZIP (product details) plus 846 EDI files for warehouse quantities. GIS retrieves 846 Item-Warehouse EDI files with per-warehouse quantities. Supported named warehouses include: Pompano Beach FL, Norfolk VA, Houston TX, Fresno CA, Clinton Township MI, plus Eagan, Grand Rapids, Kansas City, Kent, Lake Suzy, Norcross, Old Lyme, and Shreveport. Select only the warehouses you need in the integration settings.
What EDI file types does each order operation use?
Send Fulfillment Requests: EDI 850 (Purchase Order) sent to the Outbound folder; GS08 = 004010VICS. Purchase Order Type DS-Dropship sets N104 = 303; other types set N104 = 02. Get Shipments: EDI 856 (Advance Ship Notice) from the Inbound folder. Maps SKU, Buyer's Item Number, UPC, and Vendor's Item Number. Get Fulfillment Acknowledgements: EDI 855. Acceptance Code IA = accepted, IR = rejected. Partial acks supported; IB (backorder) is not. Get Invoices: EDI 810. After processing, Flxpoint sends an acknowledgement back to Land 'N' Sea.
Can I enable Archive/Un-Archive on both GIP and GIS?
No. Enabling Archive/Un-Archive on both GIP and GIS creates conflicts — items may be archived by one job and un-archived by the other in the same run window, causing products to flip states unexpectedly. Enable Archive/Un-Archive on only one of the two jobs. The doc recommends not enabling it on GIS if GIP already has it active.
