With rising prices and material shortages impacting the cost of roofing jobs, efficient and accurate estimating and ordering has become more important than ever.
To help you navigate these complexities and save time so you can focus on growth, AccuLynx has partnered with QXO to develop an integration that streamlines the estimation and material ordering processes—as well as enables you to estimate material costs more accurately.
How AccuLynx’s integration with QXO works
QXO is the largest publicly traded distributor of roofing materials and complementary building products in the United States and Canada. This new integration combines QXO’s comprehensive offerings of roofing materials and complementary building products with the powerful business management tools in AccuLynx, giving customers an easier way to estimate costs and order materials for roofing jobs.
Once you’ve enabled the integration for your AccuLynx account, you can do the following without ever having to leave AccuLynx:
- See QXO’s catalog of available materials, complete with your company’s account pricing (both updated in real time) as you build an estimate and/or order
- Place orders directly to your preferred QXO branch with the option to attach associated documents to your order
- Track the status of your orders from the related AccuLynx job file with automatic, real-time status updates, including proof of delivery photos
How to use the QXO integration
Build estimates faster
With AccuLynx, all it takes is a few clicks to build an estimate with materials from QXO—no need to log into another portal to access pricing or see what materials are in stock. You can set up a digital estimate template with frequently used materials and it will automatically reflect your QXO account pricing.
Streamline your material ordering process
With the QXO integration, there’s no need to call in orders to your local branch or place them through another portal. From AccuLynx, you can simply convert your estimate to a material order or build your order from an existing template and submit it to your QXO branch in just a few clicks. This convenient process cuts out extra steps.
Simplify order tracking
Whether you’re at the office or in the field, it’s easy to keep track of your orders with the QXO integration. You can see the status of your order, including proof of delivery photos, directly in your AccuLynx job file. Order status is updated in real time so everyone on your team is kept in the loop.
