Supplier-Specific Order Header Requirements
Overview
Some suppliers require minimum order header values to be populated for an order to be processed successfully. The Gateway will perform validation on orders for these suppliers and cancel any order received if the minimum requirements for that supplier have not been met. If a supplier is not listed below, it can be assumed no specific order header values are required.
Supplier Requirements
