A QFloors user can get supplier information instantly without making a phone call or going to an external website, through fcB2B Web Services. The types of information currently instantly available (accessible 24/7) through web services are Inventory Levels and Related Items (which are accessories attached to a product like glues, trim pieces etc.). In QFloors, we can check inventory by using Check Vendor Stock, which allows the user to ask if there is enough inventory to cover a job.
Web Service features include:
- Stock Check
- Related Items
- Order Status
- Price Check
- Stock Check with Quantity
Additional information can be found on the website fcB2B.info. We’re an active member of this organization.
At times we come across customers who are not aware of Web Services and how it could be a benefit to them. It's possible that vendors you currently work with have credentials already set up to use their Web Services. To get started with Web Services, simply contact your fcB2B supplier and tell them that you would like to open a web service account. At QFloors, we have online documentation, training videos and support resources that can assist you in getting better acquainted with this feature. You can find all of it here: Web Service Setup Training
