Getting started with Wix EDI
XEDI takes on the retailer side of your trading while your Wix site keeps selling direct, connecting Wix Stores where it helps keep stock and products consistent across both.
One managed platform, no custom code
XEDI maps Wix to your trading partners and validates every document, so data flows straight into the systems your teams already use.
Wix Stores can sell; it cannot carry a trading relationship
Wix Stores handles products, orders and payment for people buying from your site, and it does that well enough for most small brands. What it does not do is hold the terms a retail buyer trades on, produce documents to their specification, or raise an invoice that references a purchase order.
Those are separate concerns rather than missing features. Your site keeps selling; the retail relationship is handled here, where the buyer's requirements already exist.
Mixed businesses make stock the interesting problem
Wix is common in businesses that are not purely retail: a producer with a shop attached, a service business selling product alongside, a brand where the website is one of several things going on. Stock is often tracked informally because it has never needed to be exact.
A retail commitment changes that. A buyer expects the quantity agreed on the date agreed, and being short is a deduction rather than an apology. Connecting Wix gives one honest position across direct sales and wholesale, which is usually the first time that has existed.
What your team sees day to day
You get an EDI mailbox and a portal that works like an inbox. The buyer's order arrives there, you are notified, and confirming, despatching and invoicing all happen in one place.
The order becomes the despatch advice, adjusted if you are supplying more or less than ordered, with SSCC labels for the pallets, and becomes the invoice on delivery, whose arrival is confirmed in the dashboard.
Connecting Wix Stores keeps products and stock aligned across both sides. Beyond that, most businesses at this stage need no integration at all, and we will tell you so.
Documents you can exchange
- Site orders retrieved from Wix Stores
- Fulfilment confirmations returned to the site
- Stock kept consistent between the site and wholesale
- Retailer EDI orders received and worked in the portal
- Invoices raised against wholesale deliveries

Wix EDI document types
The EDI documents belong to the retail buyer. Site orders come from Wix Stores.
| Document | What it carries | Direction |
|---|---|---|
| Site orders | Direct sales retrieved from Wix Stores, visible against wholesale commitments. | Wix to you |
| Fulfilment confirmations | Shipping detail returned to the site so buyers are kept informed. | You to Wix |
| Retailer purchase orders | A buyer's demand carrying the delivery window, terms and identifiers they trade on. | Retailer to you |
| Order acknowledgements | What you commit to supplying, in the form the buyer expects to receive it. | You to retailer |
| Despatch advice | A description of the actual delivery, with pallet labels for the buyer's goods-in. | You to retailer |
| Invoices | Raised against the delivery with the references that let the buyer pay it without querying. | You to retailer |
How to connect Wix with EDI using XEDI
This is about meeting a buyer's specification, not about what Wix can be made to do. The sequence below is what onboarding looks like from your side.
-
01
We look at what Wix Stores is handling and what the retailer has specified.
-
02
We set the portal up so retailer orders are received, confirmed, despatched and invoiced there.
-
03
We connect Wix Stores where it helps, principally for product identity and stock consistency.
-
04
We prove each flow against the retailer's specification rather than against the site's capabilities.
-
05
You get the retail side working without disturbing the website your business already runs on.

Everything about Wix EDI
Common requirements
- Wix site and Stores API access
- How site orders are fulfilled today
- Product identity between site and wholesale
- Stock protected for retail commitments
- Who you supply besides your own site
What we need from you to build it
Only what we cannot hold for you. The buyer's specification is entirely ours to satisfy.
- Wix Stores access
- Site and Stores API access, so direct sales and stock can be seen against wholesale.
- Your fulfilment routine
- Who picks and ships today, since supplying a retailer is a different exercise from posting orders.
- Product identity
- How a Wix product corresponds to what the buyer is purchasing, including their pack size.
- Stock protected for retail
- What is held back for a wholesale commitment, which for many Wix businesses is the first time stock has been tracked precisely.
- Who you supply besides your own site
- The buyers in play, agreed or in discussion. Their specifications are already ours.
Why suppliers choose XEDI for Wix
- Your buyer is very likely connected already, so they can start ordering without anything about your site changing.
- A retail buyer's requirements are met without changing anything about your website.
- Documents, labels and formats are produced for you rather than becoming something you have to learn.
- Direct sales and wholesale share one honest stock position, often for the first time.
- There is no integration to buy at this stage unless it genuinely helps, and we will say which.
- If a buyer raises a problem, it comes to us rather than to whoever happens to be answering email.
Can Wix handle retailer EDI?
No. Wix Stores sells to people visiting your site. A retail buyer's terms, document formats and invoice references are handled here instead, which leaves your website doing what it is good at.
A buyer has asked for EDI. Is this expensive to set up?
Not usually, because there is nothing to build on your side. The buyer's requirements are already held by us, and their orders are worked in the portal.
Do we need to track stock properly first?
It helps, and connecting Wix Stores is often how that starts. A retail commitment has to be met in full on a date, so a rough stock figure becomes a risk rather than an inconvenience.
