Overview
In step 3 of the onboarding flow, you created your fulfillment source(s). Remember a source:
- Feeds inventory data to Flxpoint
- Receives Fulfillment Requests and Fulfillment orders from Flxpoint
- Sends tracking information to Flxpoint
- Can provide invoices for reconciliation inside Flxpoint
| Examples of a Source |
|
Now you will finish your source setup by configuring the desired integrations.
Integrating a source provides an automated way to perform important processes/operations, such as:
- Retrieving latest inventory/product data
- Submitting purchase orders/fulfillment requests (PO/FRs)
- Retrieving shipments for submitted PO/FRs
