Root cause
Tied to the exact segment, like “seg #11: no PRF on the Order loop”, not generic advice.
The fix
Corrected segments you can hand straight to your EDI provider.
Fix or fight
An honest call on whether to dispute, plus the letter when you have a case.
Real example
Kroger fined a supplier $150 for “ASN not received.” Kroger's own 997 showed it was accepted 21 hours before the truck arrived. Chargeback Decoder flagged it as disputable and wrote the letter.
