The WMS built for food distribution that connects to your ERP

BFC WMS interfaces with 30+ ERP systems through battle-tested integrations proven across HUNDREDS of food distribution facilities. From real-time modern APIs to established FTP connections, there is a well-worn path from your ERP to BFC WMS.

The WMS built for food distribution that connects to your ERP.
Why integration is hard

Integration is not a feature. It is an ongoing data relationship.

Warehouse operations depend on more than just software. They depend just as heavily on reliable integration.

"Do you integrate with our ERP?" is one of the first questions we hear, and the honest answer is almost always yes. We have hundreds of facilities running BFC WMS alongside 30+ different ERP systems, so the odds are good we have seen your situation before.

What that yes actually means is where projects go sideways. The same ERP can look completely different from one customer to the next, depending on version, deployment model, and how heavily it has been customized. A WMS integration is a continuous, bidirectional data sync that runs every shift, not a one-time setup. Your ERP and WMS should operate as one business, not two disconnected systems.

Read why WMS integration is so hard →

Your ERP is not generic
Version, deployment model, and customization mean two sites on the same ERP can need very different integration work.
Cloud and on-premises are not equal
A cloud ERP offers modern APIs. An on-premises system may sit behind a firewall with limited outbound capability.
Nine objects, the right direction for each
Items, orders, receipts, fulfillments, inventory, and more all sync continuously, each with its own timing and failure modes.
Timing is everything
Items must exist before orders. Orders must arrive before picks. A file five minutes late can hold up a whole pick wave.
We have done this hundreds of times
Simple FTP, native connectors, and heavily customized enterprise deployments. The complexity is real, but it is not new to us.

Three ways to integrate BFC WMS with your ERP

Every ERP environment is different. BFC WMS supports three integration approaches, so whatever system you are running, there is a proven path to go live.

Switching ERPs and currently using BFC WMS? Keep your BFC WMS. If you already run BFC WMS and are choosing a new ERP, you do not have to start over. We can work with you to integrate your BFC WMS with the system you choose. Let's connect to talk it through.

What we sync

Nine objects. The right direction for each. Every shift.

A WMS integration is not one connection. It is nine ongoing data relationships. Some sync both ways, others flow back to your ERP, and all of them have to work in the right order, at the right time, every day.

Bidirectional · syncs both ways

Items

Product catalog sync. Must arrive before any orders can be processed.

Purchase Orders

Inbound shipments flowing into the warehouse from your ERP.

Sales Orders

Outbound orders routed to the warehouse for picking and fulfillment.

Inventory On Hand

Keeps both systems in agreement on stock levels at all times.

Quantity Sold

Historical sales data powering replenishment logic in the WMS.

Export · BFC WMS to ERP

PO Receipts

What was actually received, sent back to your ERP for reconciliation.

Fulfilled Items

Shipment confirmations back to the ERP. What shipped, and when.

Inventory Adjustments

Cycle counts, exceptions, and mispicks, keeping records clean.

Picked Quantities

Real-time picking data flowing back to the ERP as work happens.

Performance & monitoring

Built for food distribution's real-world pace

Integrations that look good on paper but fail silently in a live warehouse cost you orders, inventory accuracy, and customer trust. We have engineered around that.

Transfer tracking
Our FTP infrastructure surfaces every file transfer, successful or failed. No more silent drops, no more mystery gaps in your data.
Event-driven architecture
Files do not sit on a server waiting to be polled. A storage event triggers processing the moment a file lands, reducing latency and eliminating missed transfers.
Real-time API responses
Native API connectors return structured responses on every call. Errors are caught immediately, not discovered at the end of a shift.
Timing guarantees
Items before orders. Orders before picks. Our integration layer enforces the sequencing that keeps your warehouse running in the right order.
Encrypted at every layer
API calls use key-based authentication over encrypted connections. FTP uses SFTP with per-customer credential management.
What to expect

What integration looks like

Every environment is different, but the path from your ERP to BFC WMS follows the same proven sequence. Here is how a typical integration unfolds, and who owns each step.

1
Instance setup
We provision a fresh BFC WMS test environment on the latest version for your team to build against.

2
Data foundation
We load the essential warehouse data so the environment mirrors your operation.
BFC
3
ERP configuration
You and your ERP partner configure the settings needed on the ERP side.
You + ERP partner
4
Integration development
Connect your ERP via BFC APIs or FTP. We also offer connectors for ERPs like NetSuite, Acumatica, or other third-party options.
You + ERP partner
5
Testing and validation
We validate data flows and purge existing WMS data to run end-to-end testing with fresh ERP data.
BFC + you
6
Go live
You approve cutover and go live, with BFC support through stabilization.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you integrate with our ERP?
Almost always, yes. We have hundreds of facilities running BFC WMS alongside 30+ different ERP systems, from modern cloud platforms to systems built decades ago. Tell us your ERP, your version, and how it is deployed, and we can tell you what the path looks like.

Here are a few ERPs to note:
NetSuite
Acumatica
Microsoft D365
NECS Entree
NCR Retalix
Aspen Canopy
Target Data Systems
AFS
JDE
SAP

Does it matter which version of our ERP we run, or how it is deployed?
Yes, materially. A cloud-hosted ERP typically has accessible APIs and modern connectivity. An on-premises system may sit behind a firewall, require VPN access, or predate modern integration standards. The same product, deployed differently, can call for a completely different approach.
What actually gets synced between the two systems?
Nine objects, in both directions, on an ongoing basis: items, purchase orders, PO receipts, sales orders, fulfilled items, inventory on hand, quantity sold, inventory adjustments, and picked quantities. Each has its own timing requirements and failure modes, which is why sequencing matters.
We are on a legacy ERP from decades ago. Can you still connect?
In most cases, yes. FTP is compatible with virtually every ERP on the market, including older systems that produce flat exports, and it covers the majority of our customer base. If you are on an older direct-database setup, talk to us about migrating to FTP or API.
