Your WPS Community Manager account will allow you to verify the EDI transactions that you will submit/receive with WPS. In order for you to set up an account in WPS Community Manager, you will need to complete an initial registration process and complete the necessary request forms and business agreement(s).

• Once you have completed your initial enrollment and all required business agreements specific to your Trading Partner account, new WPS trading partners are required to submit successful test transactions in order to be approved for production. There is not a testing environment for 277, 835, or 270/271 (Real-Time transactions).
• Once you have created your test file, you submit it through your Gateway Express account. Once you have submitted your test file and you are ready for WPS to review it, go to our Enrollments page to submit a request for us to read and approve your file. If the file contains errors, we will provide you with the specific errors for you to correct and resend your test file.

• A separate test file for production approval is required for each line of business and transaction (837I, 837P, or 837D) (Note: 837D is for Medicare Only), you will be submitting for.
