How Do I Use the Beacon Integration?
Once you have enabled the integration, it's time to start using it.
Your Contacts or Jobs must have a valid property address entered for the integration to function properly.
To use the Beacon integration to create an Estimate:
- Navigate to a Contact or Job
- Select the Financials tab
- Click Create Estimate
- Select the Connect Supplier button at the top right of the Estimate page
- Select "Beacon Roofing Supply" from the Supplier dropdown menu, the desired Branch from the Branch dropdown, and the Account from the Account dropdown.
-
- If you have imported any templates, select one from the "Use Template" drop-down menu
- To Add items, start typing in a product name in the Item text field
- Once you have added the desired items, you can move on to building the rest of your Estimate.
To convert your Estimate into a Material Order and submit it to Beacon:
- On the Financials tab under the Job, select the three dots next to the Estimate you want to convert
- Hover over "Convert to"
- Select Material Order
- You will then be taken to the Create Material Order screen
- Make any changes you would like to make by updating the information in the Line Items
- Set the Delivery Address, the Requested Delivery Date and Time, and the Shipping Method
- Click Place Order in the top right corner
- Confirm your Order by clicking "Yes".
Tips:
- A successful order will take you to a preview of the Material Order and in the Activity show you a Status of "Order Received".
- Once the order is placed, you will receive a confirmation email from Beacon with the details. The chosen Material Order delivery date will the display on your Calendar within JobNimbus.
