What is KeHE code IAA?

Item authorization / placement charge tied to launching an item into distribution.

It belongs to the slotting & placement fee deductions category. That category is where its dispute path is defined.

Is IAA disputable?

Slotting and placement codes charge for securing distribution and program placement, usually at launch. Agreed placement fees are contractual; charges for the wrong number of items or locations, duplicates, and fees on items you didn't authorize are recoverable when reconciled to your launch agreement.
