Resolved against Epicor
The buyer and every line confirmed against live data, including parts the customer orders under their own numbering.
- Customers, by name and ID
- Parts, including the customer's own numbers
- Units and part revisions
Requests for quote arrive as PDFs, scans, photographs, spreadsheets, Word files or plain email text, from a customer, a rep or your own inbox. Fluent reads them, resolves the customer, the parts, the units and the part revisions against live Epicor data, and drafts the quote in Kinetic for a person to review and process.
How it works
The customer, the parts, the units and the revisions resolved against Epicor, and configurable parts priced by Epicor itself.
The buyer and every line confirmed against live data, including parts the customer orders under their own numbering.
Where a line carries a configuration, Fluent works the Epicor product configurator and reads the configured price back onto the line.
A part or a unit that resolves to nothing is held on the draft with the reason, because no match beats a speculative match.
The difference
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.
A template for every vendor, layout and document type
Reads each document the way a person does, whatever the layout
Fields found by position, so a moved column breaks extraction
No coordinates. It consults live Epicor data before it writes
Models retrained on samples whenever a design changes
Corrections become instructions, so it improves without retraining
Exceptions fall out to a queue for manual keying
Reasons through variations and exceptions instead of failing
Behavior changes through a configuration project
Behavior is set in written instructions you control
Governance
Every agent operates inside boundaries you define. Every action it takes is recorded, explainable, and reversible before it posts.
Low-risk orders post automatically; high-value or unusual ones wait for a person.
Every field the agent read, every decision it made, on the record.
Your documents and data stay under retention policies you control.
Transactions are validated by Epicor’s own business logic before they post.
Exceptions escalate to your team with the agent’s reasoning attached.
Agents only touch the business objects and companies you allow.
