08 | Accounting Software Integration
Integrate Fishbowl with QuickBooks or Xero to automatically record purchase orders in the general ledger
If some parts are too low, you can quickly generate purchase orders for them. Shortly after you ship goods out, in addition to deducting the inventory from the system, Fishbowl automatically adjusts the cost of goods sold and inventory asset in your integrated accounting solution. Thus, it is a good idea to integrate QuickBooks or Xero with Fishbowl's order fulfillment and inventory management software.
09 | Electronic Data Interchange (EDI)
Integrate with an EDI to customize order formats for big-box retailers
If you sell products to retail chains, you will need to make sure your sales orders and purchase orders are formatted correctly for each one. Most big-box stores require vendors to comply with their unique requirements. Rather than attempting to do this manually, you’re better off using an EDI to automatically reformat your sales orders and purchase orders for each retailer. Fishbowl integrates with eZCom, Infocon Systems, and SPS Commerce to enable this order processing functionality.
