SPS Commerce

SPS Commerce is an EDI network: retailers such as department stores and big-box chains send you purchase orders through it, and expect electronic replies. Connecting SPS Commerce to SKU.io turns that exchange into ordinary order handling.

DirectionWhat movesWhen
In from SPS CommerceRetailer purchase ordersEvery five minutes, or when you click Check SPS for new orders
Out to SPS CommerceAn acknowledgment for each purchase orderAs soon as its sales order is created
Out to SPS CommerceA ship notice for each shipmentAs soon as the shipment is recorded

Each purchase order becomes a sales order on its own once every line matches one of your products. Your retailers' part numbers rarely match your SKUs, so the first order from a new item usually waits for you to map it. You only map an item once.

You can connect one SPS Commerce account to SKU.io.

Where to find it​

Go to Apps & Integrations, then choose SPS Commerce under EDI / Retail Trading Partners. Once you're connected, open the connection to reach its Dashboard, Purchase Orders, and Settings tabs.
