Using AroFlo's featured integrated supplier catalogues, you can:

  • Browse and select items from online product catalogues directly within AroFlo.
  • Import items directly on to a quote, purchase order, request for quote, or invoice. 
  • Use the most accurate material costs as pricing is live from the supplier. 

As soon as you commit at the supplier online checkout, the items go directly into AroFlo.
