Motor State Distributing as a Source
Summary
Motor State Distributing is a wholesaler of automotive performance parts and accessories, publicly listed in Flxpoint — you can select it directly from the connector gallery, with no request or account manager approval needed. The integration connects over FTP (Connection Name, FTP Protocol, Host, Port, User, and Password), and runs Get Inventory (Primary and Secondary) and Send Fulfillment Requests. For operation-level mapping guidance, contact support@flxpoint.com.
Motor State Distributing is now publicly available in the connector gallery. Add a Motor State Distributing source, start configuring an operation, and when Flxpoint prompts you click + New Connection, enter the FTP credentials provided by Motor State Distributing, then Test Connection → Save Connection.
support@flxpoint.com.Publicly available — no longer request-only
Motor State Distributing is now public and no longer requires account manager approval to access. Go to Sources → + Add Source → Integrations and select Motor State Distributing directly from the connector gallery to begin configuring your connection.
Archive is enforced on one job only, GI-P or GI-S — never both
Run Get Inventory Primary once daily to import Motor State's automotive performance catalog. Use Get Inventory Secondary for more frequent price and quantity refreshes. Flxpoint enforces Archive/Un-Archive on only one of GI-P or GI-S at a time — it cannot be enabled on both, even if you want to.
Performance parts may have freight or specialized carrier requirements
Automotive performance parts, especially large or heavy items, may ship via freight or specialized carriers. Confirm ShipVia codes and carrier requirements with Motor State Distributing before configuring Send Fulfillment Requests. Run a single manual test order before enabling automatic scheduling.
