B2B Ordering Portal Features
More than just an integration - a complete B2B ordering portal for your customers
Automatic Disposition Recording
When an order reaches your configured shipping step, Orderwerks creates the disposition in FastBound automatically. No copying serial numbers between systems. No forgotten entries.
Serial Number Management
Import serial numbers from FastBound acquisitions directly into your Orderwerks inventory. Assign them to catalog items individually or in bulk. Track serials through orders and fulfillment.
Inventory Reconciliation
Run a reconciliation report anytime to compare what FastBound says you have against what Orderwerks shows. Identify mismatches, missing serials, and status discrepancies before they become audit problems.
Sync Dashboard
Monitor synchronization health from a single screen. See what has been synced, what is pending, and whether any errors need attention. Trigger manual syncs whenever you need them.
Disposition Hold for Review
Optionally hold dispositions in a pending state before they commit to your bound book. Review the details, verify the customer and item information, then approve. Or set it to auto-commit for faster processing.
Error Tracking and Resolution
Every sync or API issue is logged with details about what went wrong. Retry individual errors or dismiss them. Nothing falls through the cracks silently.

How It Works
Connect Your FastBound Account
Enter your FastBound API key and account number. Test the connection. You can connect multiple accounts if you operate multiple FFL locations.
Configure and Sync
Set your disposition workflow step, choose your disposition types, and run your first sync. Serial numbers and contacts flow from FastBound into Orderwerks.
Orders Drive Compliance
When dealers place orders and those orders ship, dispositions are recorded in FastBound automatically. Your bound book stays current without extra work.
Detailed Features
Disposition Automation
Configure which order workflow step triggers a disposition in FastBound. Standard sales, NFA Form 3, Form 4, Form 5, returns, and dealer samples are all supported. The system routes each item to the correct disposition type automatically.
Acquisition Sync
Pull manufactured, purchased, or imported acquisitions from FastBound into Orderwerks. Filter by acquisition type so you only import what is relevant. Serial numbers arrive as pending items ready for catalog assignment.
Contact Synchronization
Sync FFL holders, buyers, and organizations from FastBound so your customer records stay aligned across both systems. Contacts synced from FastBound are available for use in dispositions and order processing.
Serial Validation
Define a serial number format pattern to validate incoming serials during import. Reject serials that do not match your expected format before they enter the system.
Webhook Integration
Receive real-time notifications from FastBound when acquisitions, dispositions, contacts, or inventory changes occur. Reduces reliance on manual sync and keeps data current within seconds.
Reconciliation Reporting
Generate a side-by-side comparison of FastBound and Orderwerks serial inventory. The report categorizes every serial as matched, FastBound-only, Orderwerks-only, or status mismatch - so you know exactly where discrepancies exist.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does Orderwerks replace FastBound?
No. Orderwerks handles B2B ordering and order management. FastBound handles your electronic bound book and ATF compliance. The integration connects them so data flows automatically instead of being entered twice.
Can I connect more than one FastBound account?
Yes. If you operate multiple FFL locations or maintain separate bound books, you can connect each FastBound account independently. Each account has its own sync settings and configuration.
What happens when an order ships?
When an order reaches your configured workflow step (e.g., Shipped), Orderwerks automatically creates a disposition in FastBound with the correct type, category, and item details. If you have Disposition Hold enabled, you can review before it commits.
Does the integration handle NFA items?
Yes. Orderwerks detects NFA-regulated items and routes them using your configured NFA disposition type - typically Form 3 for dealer-to-dealer or Form 4 for civilian transfers.
How do I know if my inventory matches between systems?
Run a reconciliation report from Reports > FastBound Reconciliation Report. It compares every serial in both systems and categorizes discrepancies so you can resolve them quickly.
Is there an additional cost for the FastBound integration?
No. The FastBound integration is included with your Orderwerks subscription. There are no per-sync, per-serial, or per-disposition fees.
