Integrations · Amazon Business
Amazon Business inside OmniPATH.
Connect through OAuth in two clicks. Orders sync into the same approval flow as your traditional suppliers. Invoices land de-duplicated, attributed to the right site and ready for posting, with no separate inbox to chase.
How it fits
Same approval flow. Every supplier.
Whether the order came from FS Foodservice or Amazon Business, it lands in the same purchasing pipeline: same approvers, same coding, same posting rules.
Three steps to live
Connect once. Forget about it.
OAuth handles authentication, defaults pin the sync targets and the sync history confirms it’s working.
Step 1
Connect through OAuth
From the integrations page, click the Amazon Business tile. You’re sent to Amazon to grant OmniPATH read access to your order and invoice history. Two clicks: log in, approve.
Separate connections for Amazon Business UK, US and EU
Step 2
Set sync defaults
Pick the default site and supplier record that incoming orders should be attributed to. You can override per order from the Configuration page, but for most operators one default each is enough.
Site, supplier and sync frequency
Step 3
Watch it sync
Sync runs automatically every four hours, or click Sync Now to pull on demand. The sync history shows start time, trigger, outcome and order and invoice counts, with errors shown inline if anything bounces.
01 · Auto de-duplication
One invoice in. One invoice out.
Amazon emails the invoice. The Amazon API delivers the same invoice. Someone uploads a saved PDF copy. Three sources, one document.
OmniPATH detects duplicates by Amazon order ID, invoice number and file hash, collapsing all three sources into a single record before approval. No duplicate payments and no manual reconciliation.
- Order ID match across email, API and upload
- Hash check on identical PDFs from different sources
- Original copies kept as audit attachments
- Shown as one record in the approval queue
Amazon Business authorisation
IllustrativeOmniPATH asks for read access only:
- Read order history
- Read invoice attachments
- Read account organisation
02 · Sync history audit
Every sync, logged.
The sync history table is the audit trail for the integration. Every pull, automatic or manual, is timestamped, attributed and shows what came back. If a sync fails, you see why and where it stopped.
For finance and IT, this is the table to point auditors at when they ask how Amazon Business spend gets into the books.
- Start time and trigger (auto, manual or webhook)
- Outcome, with an inline error message on failures
- Order and invoice count per sync
- Filter by date range, trigger or outcome

What the books looked like before the gate.
Day zero is sealed from the accounting system before OmniPATH changes anything. This is what one year of ledger data looked like going in.
of profiled spend belonged to suppliers keyed under more than one name: one retailer four ways, a food supplier twice, another with a typo.
supplier contacts in the accounting system carried no spend in the sealed year. Every dormant record is a door left open.
of a year's ledger spend was a total on a bill. The largest supplier, nearly a third of profiled spend, had no lines at all.
of spend seen is VAT at stake on rate mismatches. The customer has already actioned 4.0%; 4.6% is still open.
of the year's bills carried a date still in the future when the baseline was sealed. Each one pulls spend into the wrong period.
of profiled spend went to supermarkets, outside any agreed price or catalogue.
From the sealed day-zero epoch of one live single-site hospitality operator (sealed 10 Sep 2026, covering the previous 12 months) and the findings read on 23 Oct 2026. Supplier groupings are our reading of the sealed spend records. How we measured this
Questions
The integration details.
Which Amazon Business regions are supported?
The UK, US and EU Amazon Business marketplaces. Each region needs its own OAuth connection, but the resulting orders all flow into the same OmniPATH workspace. Multi-region operators can run several connections in parallel.
Do I ever need to download invoices manually?
No. The integration pulls invoice PDFs directly from the Amazon Business API and attaches them to the matching order. They land in OmniPATH already linked to the right purchase record, ready for the standard 2-way match against the order summary.
How are multi-site orders attributed?
The default site is set per integration on the Configuration page. If your team uses Amazon Business Groups (one per site), the integration can map each Group to a site automatically. For one-off cases, such as a manager buying on the wrong account, the attribution can be reassigned in the approval queue before posting.
What happens when I disconnect?
You’re asked to confirm before the OAuth token is revoked. Once disconnected, no further syncs run, but existing synced orders, invoices and audit history stay in OmniPATH. You can reconnect at any time; historical syncs aren’t replayed.
Does this work with Amazon Business Prime?
Yes. Prime status is detected automatically and shown on the order record. Free shipping savings flow through to OmniPATH spend analysis as a separate savings line on the supplier overview, so the value of the Prime subscription is visible.
Can sync run more often than every four hours?
Four hours is the default for the automatic pull. Manual sync is unlimited: click Sync Now whenever you like. Webhook-driven sync, where Amazon notifies OmniPATH the moment an order is placed, is on the roadmap and will replace polling once Amazon’s webhook scopes are generally available.
