Walmart Chargeback Code 10: Price difference / allowance difference
What this deduction means
Code 10 is a price-difference deduction. Walmart takes it when the cost billed on the invoice does not match the cost Walmart has on file, or when an agreed allowance is missing from the invoice, and deducts the difference.
Typical penalty: Equal to the per-unit price difference across the billed quantity
Common causes
- Invoice cost higher than the cost agreed in Walmart's item file
- A cost change not updated on both sides before invoicing
- An agreed allowance omitted from the invoice
How to prevent Walmart code 10
- Sync item cost between your system and Walmart's item file before billing
- Confirm any cost change is effective on both sides before the PO ships
- Apply agreed allowances on the invoice
