Resolved against Epicor
The customer, every part and every unit confirmed against live data, including parts the buyer calls by their own name.
- Customers, by name and ID
- Parts, including the customer's own numbers
- Units the part actually carries
Every customer purchase order posted as an Epicor sales order
Customer purchase orders arrive as PDFs, scans, photographs, spreadsheets, Word files or plain email text. Fluent reads them, resolves the buyer, the parts and the units against live Epicor data, reports any order already carrying that purchase order number, and drafts the sales order in Epicor Kinetic Order Entry.
How it works
Turn the customer's purchase order into a sales order
The buyer, the parts and the units resolved against live Epicor data, and a duplicate purchase order caught before drafting.
Checked before it drafts
Fluent reports any order already carrying that purchase order number, which is the most common way an order gets keyed twice.
- Existing orders on that PO number
- The customer's own currency and terms
- Prices and totals against the document
Ready to review
Whatever could not be settled is written onto the draft by name, so a reviewer sees the open questions and nothing else.
- Unresolved parts and units named per line
- Missing header values listed
- Nothing posts until a person processes it
The difference
No templates, no field mapping, no model training
Legacy document capture is configured per layout: a template for each vendor, a coordinate for each field, a model retrained when the paperwork changes. Fluent is configured in written instructions, and rewriting them changes what it does.
Legacy OCRAgentic automation
Templates
A template for every vendor, layout and document type
Reads each document the way a person does, whatever the layout
Field mapping
Fields found by position, so a moved column breaks extraction
No coordinates. It consults live Epicor data before it writes
Model training
Models retrained on samples whenever a design changes
Corrections become instructions, so it improves without retraining
Exceptions
Exceptions fall out to a queue for manual keying
Reasons through variations and exceptions instead of failing
Changing behavior
Behavior changes through a configuration project
Behavior is set in written instructions you control
Governance
Autonomy you can hand to an auditor
Every agent operates inside boundaries you define. Every action it takes is recorded, explainable, and reversible before it posts.
Approval thresholds
Low-risk orders post automatically; high-value or unusual ones wait for a person.
Audit logs
Every field the agent read, every decision it made, on the record.
Data retention
Your documents and data stay under retention policies you control.
Epicor validation
Transactions are validated by Epicor’s own business logic before they post.
Human review
Exceptions escalate to your team with the agent’s reasoning attached.
Permissions
Agents only touch the business objects and companies you allow.
