Direct supplier connectivity
Capable suppliers connect directly. Everyone else clicks a button.
Most supplier tools force every supplier through one door. APIXX offers several — API, MCP, direct accounting connectors and email — and works alongside the EDI connections you already have.
API
Suppliers with a development team or an integration platform
A documented REST API with webhooks for every order event. Suppliers pull orders and push confirmations, ship notices and invoices from their own systems.
MCP
Suppliers using AI assistants and agents
A Model Context Protocol server lets a supplier's AI assistant read open orders and submit acknowledgments, date changes and ship notices with the same permissions and audit trail as a person.
Accounting connectors
Suppliers who run one of the systems below
Orders land in the supplier's accounting or ERP system as sales orders; their invoices flow back to you as drafts. No portal login required for day-to-day work.
Email, one-click and portal
Everyone else
Suppliers with no systems still respond in seconds — a button in the email, a short dialog, a plain reply or the portal. Every path writes to the same record.
Your EDI provider
Suppliers already trading electronically
Suppliers already on EDI keep trading through your existing EDI provider and network — nothing changes for them. Showing their order status alongside every other supplier is coming to the Scale plan.
Accounting & ERP connectors
Connectors for the systems your suppliers already run
When a supplier runs one of these, your purchase orders arrive as sales orders in their system and their invoices come back to you as drafts — no rekeying on either side.

One set of rules, whichever way a supplier connects
- Same record, every path — an API call, an MCP action, an accounting-connector sync and an email click all update the same purchase order.
- Same permissions — a supplier's system or agent can only see and act on that supplier's orders, keyed to your tenant.
- Same audit trail — who or what responded, through which channel, at what time, with the payload retained.
- Drafts only — supplier-originated invoices and changes land as drafts for your approval before anything posts to your ERP.
