UCC-128 and SSCC Labeling for CDW Shipments—Made Easy
Getting your UCC-128 and SSCC labels right is critical when shipping to partners like CDW. But for many small and mid-sized businesses, it’s often a painful, manual, and costly process. That’s where ActionEDI simplifies the game.
What Are UCC-128 and SSCC Labels?
UCC-128 labels—also known as GS1-128 labels—are standardized shipping labels used in supply chains to identify pallets, cartons, and shipments. Each label carries a unique Serial Shipping Container Code (SSCC) that allows major trading partners, like CDW, to track and process shipments accurately.
Why Are They Important for CDW Shipments?
CDW requires their suppliers to include precise UCC-128 labels on each shipment for fast, accurate receiving. Without compliant labels, suppliers can face costly chargebacks, delayed payments, or rejected shipments. Getting this wrong can hurt your cash flow and relationship with CDW.
Challenges Suppliers Face with UCC-128 Labeling
- Manual entry errors when creating SSCC numbers
- Printing labels that don’t meet CDW’s exact format requirements
- Managing unique SSCCs across multiple warehouses or shipments
- Costly third-party labeling services that add hidden fees
