Questions
Does FloraPass work with Business Central?
Next to it, not inside it. Your system can send shipments through FloraPass's REST API, or you import them from a CSV file; FloraPass issues the passports and gives back the labels and the delivery note. Invoicing stays in your ERP.
Does FloraPass do invoicing?
No. FloraPass handles availability, dispatch and compliance. Invoicing stays with your system or your accountant.
How do I try FloraPass?
Sign up and every feature is free for 30 days, without a card. Then it's €79 a month, or the account turns read-only and keeps every record.
