Extracted from source — pending expert reviewLast verified: 2026-07-09
What this deduction means
A Code 55 is assessed when a supplier agreed to an allowance (for example a per-store store-opening allowance) but invoiced the full amount without applying it. Walmart deducts the agreed allowance.
Typical penalty: The agreed allowance amount that was not applied
Common causes
- A store-opening or other agreed allowance omitted from the invoice
- Allowance terms not configured in the billing system
- The full amount billed despite the agreement
How to prevent Walmart code 55
- Apply all agreed allowances on the invoice
- Track allowance agreements in the billing system
- Validate against the vendor agreement before invoicing
