Connecting AerialReports CRM to ABC Supply

Follow this checklist to link your ABC Supply (myABCSupply) account so product search, branch lookup, and catalog sync work from your job card.

Live today One-time setup, admin only ~5 minutes

Who does this: a platform admin does this once for your whole company — not once per crew member. ABC Supply credentials are entered in Admin Console and apply to every user on your account.

Connect ABC Supply

Get your ABC Supply API credentials

Go to apidocs.abcsupply.com and sign in as an ABC Supply partner/customer. Under Manage Apps, create (or open) your application to get a Client ID and Client Secret.

  • Sandbox apps use sandbox credentials — keep your app in Sandbox mode until ABC promotes it to Production.
  • The Client Secret is shown once — copy it somewhere safe before leaving the page.

Open Admin Console → API Keys

In AerialReports CRM, go to Admin Console → API Keys & Config. Find the ABC Supply section.

Enter your Client ID and Client Secret

Paste the values from step 1 into ABC Supply Client ID and ABC Supply Client Secret, then set ABC Supply sandbox to match your app's environment — 1 for sandbox (default), 0 only once ABC has promoted your app to production.

Save

Click Save. The connection takes effect within about 30 seconds — no redeploy or restart needed.

Test the platform connection

Go to Settings → Supplier Feeds and click Test Connection on the ABC Supply card. A successful test confirms your token was issued and ABC Supply accepted it. This platform-level connection covers product search and branch lookup for your whole company.

Who does this: any admin/manager on your account, once — this is your contractor login to ABC Supply, not a platform-wide setting.

Connect your ABC Supply account (contract pricing & ordering)

Go to Settings → Supplier Feeds

Find the ABC Supply card and click Connect.

Log in with your real ABC Supply (myABCSupply) credentials

This redirects to ABC Supply's own login page — a real OAuth sign-in, not a static key. Approve access when prompted.

You're connected

You land back in the CRM with a green Connected status showing your Ship-To account. From here, item search returns your branch's real carried items, pricing is a live quote against your actual contract rate, and Submit to ABC Supply places a real order against your account.

Set your default Ship-To and branch (optional)

On the same card, click Ship-to / branch settings to pick which of your Ship-Tos and branch orders should default to. You can override this per order.

Sync the catalog (optional)

Click Sync Catalog to pull your branch's carried, priced items into Company Library so they're available when building estimates — a background sweep also keeps this current automatically.
