Cintra works beside your ERP, not instead of it. Send overflow requests and your item-master export. Receive researched, quote-ready lines mapped to your SKUs and formatted for review or import.
Use delayed, declined, unfamiliar-category, or incomplete RFQs as the pilot set.
Send the original RFQ, attachments, due date, and any account restrictions. No reformatting required.
We research specifications, source exact matches, document alternatives, and surface exceptions needing approval.
Review the prepared output and decide what goes to your customer. Cintra does not contact the buyer without permission.
Requests containing lines outside your stocked or familiar categories.
Incomplete descriptions, mixed manufacturers, discontinued parts, or approved-equal requirements.
Requests that arrive when the internal team is already at capacity or the deadline is approaching.
Opportunities you would decline because the research time is disproportionate to the expected order.
Cintra handles the research-heavy work outside the ERP, then returns the result in the structure your team already uses.
Item-master export, quote-import template, approved suppliers, margin rules, substitution policy, and the customer accounts placed in scope.
Your internal SKU where matched, manufacturer part number, description, quantity, UOM, source, cost, recommended sell price, availability, lead time, and match status.
Your team approves margin, freight, tax, terms, alternatives, and release. Cintra does not publish or send the quote without permission.
Forward three RFQs. We return a readable workbook and an import-ready CSV using your required columns.
When the pilot works, refresh item, supplier, and pricing exports on an agreed schedule.
For repeat volume, map Cintra's quote model to your ERP API or import process and create drafts directly.
Mature accounts can route only unresolved lines to Cintra and return the completed work to the original draft.
Typical systems can be supported through exports or adapters, including NetSuite, Epicor Prophet 21 and Eclipse, Infor Distribution SX.e, Microsoft Dynamics, Acumatica, Odoo, QuickBooks Enterprise, and industry-specific ERPs. Native integration is not required for the pilot.
Send up to three live overflow requests, a basic item-master export, and your desired quote-import columns. We will confirm the working rules before preparing anything buyer-facing.
