What it does
The Send Accounting Orders operation for Rapid Gun Systems (Counterpoint) creates a single, unified order document in Counterpoint for every online order. This allows you to reconcile payments and firearm paperwork against one document, even if the order contains a mix of items fulfilled from your internal inventory and items dropshipped by external vendors.
Unified order logic
Unlike standard accounting syncs that split orders by fulfillment source, this integration sends the entire order as one document to maintain a 1:1 relationship with your sales channel orders (e.g., BigCommerce or GunBroker). Every line item is classified and handled based on its fulfillment source:
Internal lines: Items fulfilled from your internal warehouse are sent as normal Order lines using the existing item number in Counterpoint.
Vendor lines: Items dropshipped directly to a customer or external FFL are sent as Special Order lines using a placeholder SKU (e.g., FlxPoint Dropship).
Cross-dock/BOPIS lines: Vendor items shipped to your store for customer pickup are treated as normal Order lines using a specific replacement SKU.
Configuration requirements
To enable the sync, you must provide the following credentials and settings within the Rapid Gun Systems channel integration:
Setting | Description |
|---|---|
CUST_NO | The Counterpoint customer number associated with the order. |
STR_ID / STA_ID / DRW_ID | The Store, Station, and Drawer IDs for the transaction. |
Dropship Item No | The placeholder SKU used for vendor dropship lines. |
Replace Item No | The placeholder SKU used for cross-dock or store-pickup lines. |
Request Reprice Flag | Determines if Counterpoint should recalculate pricing upon import. |
Functional workflow
Eligibility Check: The process picks up orders that are paid, routed, and not yet synced. Orders with existing sync errors are skipped until the error is resolved.
Idempotency Check: Before creating a new document, Flxpoint performs a GET request to Counterpoint using the Flxpoint order number as the reference (REF/CUST_PO_NO). If the order already exists, it is marked as synced to prevent duplicates.
Line Mapping: Flxpoint splits the lines by fulfillment source and maps the item number, quantity, price, and extended cost. Descriptions are automatically truncated to the Counterpoint limit of 50 characters.
Document POST: A single POST request is sent to the Counterpoint /Documents endpoint. Upon success, the order is marked as synced in Flxpoint.
Note: Counterpoint order documents cannot be updated after they are created. All internal and vendor lines must be included in the initial sync request.
Common issues
Duplicate order errors?
This usually occurs if an order was manually entered into Counterpoint using the same reference number. Flxpoint will stop the sync to prevent double-billing or inventory errors.
Missing vendor lines in Counterpoint?
Ensure that the "Dropship Item No" placeholder SKU is correctly configured in your integration settings and that the SKU exists within your Counterpoint environment.
