otopack

Works with what you already run

Keep your ERP. Otopack does the packaging work it can’t.

Otopack connects to Microsoft Dynamics, CartonCloud and your 3PL partners. Your records stay where they are. Otopack reads from them, does the chasing and checking, and writes the result back. It connects to the tools you already run, including any with an API.

What connects

Three systems. Your records stay where they are.

Business Central and Dynamics 365

Microsoft Dynamics

Dynamics stays your record for customers, prices, orders and invoices. Otopack reads from it and writes the result back.

Otopack reads

  • Customers, contacts and delivery addresses
  • Price lists and payment terms
  • Vendors and purchase prices
  • Sales and purchase order status

Otopack writes back

  • New customers from brand setup
  • Quotes and sales orders
  • Purchase orders with the approved artwork attached
  • Invoices once proof of delivery arrives

Your team stops

  • Re-keying customers from a setup form
  • Copying quotes into sales orders
  • Attaching print files to POs by hand
  • Waiting for someone to confirm a delivery before invoicing

Warehouse management

CartonCloud

CartonCloud stays your record for what is in the warehouse and what has left it.

Otopack reads

  • Stock on hand by brand and SKU
  • Batch numbers and received dates
  • Pick, pack and dispatch confirmations
  • Consignment details

Otopack writes back

  • Outbound orders from brand call-offs

Your team stops

  • Re-keying call-offs from emails
  • Answering “how much stock is left?” by hand
  • Keeping a stockholding spreadsheet

Warehouse and freight partners

Your 3PL partners

When a 3PL holds stock or runs freight for you, Otopack works with them in the format they already accept.

Otopack reads

  • Dispatch confirmations
  • Proof of delivery
  • Stock reports

Otopack writes back

  • Call-offs and delivery bookings
  • Delivery site rules and booking windows

Your team stops

  • Emailing call-offs and chasing confirmations
  • Collecting proof of delivery by hand
  • Matching 3PL stock reports to your own

How it works

From first access to the first live order.

A typical setup. Each step is shaped around how your team works today.

  1. 01

    Map your setup

    We look at how your Dynamics, CartonCloud and 3PL are set up today, and agree which records Otopack reads and writes.

  2. 02

    Read first

    Otopack starts with read access only, so your team sees the results before anything is written back.

  3. 03

    Test on real orders

    Your real quotes, proofs and call-offs run in parallel, and your team checks each one.

  4. 04

    Switch on one role at a time

    Each role goes live when your team is happy with it. Nothing changes for finance or the warehouse.

Questions

What packaging teams ask us.

Do we need to change ERP?

No. Otopack works on top of Microsoft Dynamics Business Central or Dynamics 365 as you have it set up today.

What if we do not use CartonCloud?

Otopack can send call-offs to your 3PL and read stock from their reports instead. We confirm what your warehouse setup supports in the demo.

Which 3PLs do you work with?

The 3PLs you already use. Tell us yours in the demo and we will show how it connects.

Does our IT team need to build anything?

No. Our team sets up and looks after the connections as part of going live.

Where does our data live?

Your records stay in your own systems. Otopack keeps the proof, approval and supplier records it creates.

Is every connection the same?

No. We agree what is read and written for your setup before anything is switched on.

Bring one real order. Watch it run.

Pick a quote, a proof round or a call-off from this week. We will walk it through Otopack on top of your own systems, so you see exactly where the hours go.
