DynamoDocs automates Epicor Kinetic document entry for distributors. For distributors, bulk customer POs with many SKUs and supplier invoices that must match receipts arrive nonstop and get keyed line by line before anything ships. DynamoDocs captures each document, AI reads and classifies it, suggests GL coding, validates it, and posts approved records into Epicor Kinetic through a REST endpoint in front of Epicor Kinetic, or CSV files for a Kinetic import, so orders ship on time and supplier bills reconcile against receipts. Epicor Kinetic (formerly Epicor ERP / E10) runs production, inventory, and finance for discrete and make-to-order manufacturers, where order entry and AP keying are a constant drag.

A worked example
Epicor Kinetic for distributors, from inbox to posted record
Imagine a wholesale distributor running Epicor Kinetic that receives a 60-line bulk purchase order from a grocery chain, every line uses the customer's SKU, not yours. DynamoDocs picks it up from the monitored inbox (or a drag-and-drop upload), and AI reads every field and line, no template required. Each line gets a suggested GL account from your rules and coding history, then the document is validated against totals, required fields, and your own checks. Anything that fails is flagged field-by-field for a quick review; everything clean posts straight into Epicor Kinetic as an AP invoice through a REST endpoint in front of Epicor Kinetic, or CSV files for a Kinetic import. There is no prebuilt Kinetic connector. Mapped records go as JSON to a REST endpoint you name (often one built on Kinetic's REST services), or as CSV files for an import. Your distribution & wholesale team reviews the occasional exception instead of retyping the whole document, so orders ship on time and supplier bills reconcile against receipts.

Epicor Kinetic for Distribution & Wholesale FAQ
How does DynamoDocs handle distribution & wholesale documents on Epicor Kinetic?
For distributors, bulk customer POs with many SKUs and supplier invoices that must match receipts arrive nonstop and get keyed line by line before anything ships. DynamoDocs captures each of those documents from a monitored mailbox or upload, reads every field with AI (no per-vendor template), suggests a GL account for each line, and posts it into Epicor Kinetic through a REST endpoint in front of Epicor Kinetic, or CSV files for a Kinetic import. There is no prebuilt Kinetic connector. Mapped records go as JSON to a REST endpoint you name (often one built on Kinetic's REST services), or as CSV files for an import. Clean documents post automatically; only exceptions reach a person, so orders ship on time and supplier bills reconcile against receipts.
How does a bulk customer po with many skus and unit-of-measure quirks post into Epicor Kinetic?
It becomes a sales order in Epicor Kinetic, with header and line-item fields validated before anything posts. Delivers AP invoices, sales orders, and quotes shaped to the fields you map. A visual field-mapping engine shapes the record into exactly what Epicor Kinetic expects, so nothing is retyped and nothing posts half-filled.
Does it assign cost center and warehouse on Epicor Kinetic records?
DynamoDocs suggests a GL account for each line from your keyword rules and from how the same part or description was coded before, and a person confirms it. It does not assign cost center and warehouse for you, but where a document prints them they can be captured as added fields and mapped into the record Epicor Kinetic receives. Anything that fails a validation rule is flagged field-by-field for a quick fix before it posts.
How do purchase orders and RFQs from distributors post into Epicor Kinetic?
Purchase orders become a sales order and RFQs become a quote in Epicor Kinetic, with every line, bulk customer POs with many SKUs included, read and validated first. Maps suppliers, customers, GL accounts, and part numbers to the ones already in Kinetic.
How much time and money does this save distributors on Epicor Kinetic?
Keying one document into Epicor Kinetic typically takes 5–10 minutes and costs $2–$6 in labor, before the cost of fixing a mis-keyed line. DynamoDocs does it in seconds and only flags exceptions, so the labor left is the review time on those, while orders ship on time and supplier bills reconcile against receipts.
