Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a separate EDI provider?

Sales Layer can act as your EDI translator, or we can integrate with your existing EDI provider (like SPS Commerce or CommerceHub) to feed them the correct product data. Our goal is to fit into your existing workflow.

How do I validate product data before sending it to Nordstrom?

Sales Layer validates product data against Nordstrom’s required attributes and formats before publication. Teams can review completeness, detect missing or incorrect fields, and approve content through structured workflows. This allows product data to be corrected and aligned before it is submitted, reducing back-and-forth and manual rework.

Can I handle multiple brands?

Yes. If you sell multiple brands to Nordstrom under different vendor numbers, Sales Layer can manage them all within a single account, routing orders and data to the correct brand profile automatically.

What about packing slips?

Nordstrom Direct requires branded packing slips. Sales Layer can generate these PDF slips to be printed in your warehouse and included in the box, ensuring the customer has a seamless Nordstrom brand experience.

Does it support pre-packs?

Yes. For wholesale orders, we support complex pack structures (e.g., a box containing 2 Small, 4 Medium, 2 Large). We map these pre-pack configurations so Nordstrom's receiving teams can scan and process your shipments instantly.
