For Med-Surg, Lab & Specialty Distributors

Your ERP doesn't know what the GPO contract actually pays.

You bill the GPO member price and charge the manufacturer back for the difference, on single-digit margins, with the reconciliation spread across exports.

A data warehouse built specifically for med-surg, lab products, and specialty medical distributors. Connect Prophet 21, GHX, Model N, and your WMS. Live in about 48 hours.

Connect what you already run

Every ERP, EDI, WMS, and contract system a distributor runs.

Synopsis joins them into one queryable warehouse in about 48 hours, keyed to the same customer, contract, SKU and lot. If a system is not listed, an export or an API is usually enough.

Synopsis is a data warehouse for medical and lab product distributors that goes live on your own systems in about 48 hours. Epicor Prophet 21, NetSuite, GHX, TrueCommerce, Model N, Vistex, Körber, and Power BI land in one warehouse keyed to the same customer, contract, SKU, and lot. Questions like which chargebacks are open past 30 days and which orders billed off-contract become single queries. Updated August 2026.

Popular pairings

The integrations distributors search for, answered in one warehouse.

Every system lands keyed to the same customer, contract, SKU and lot, so each pairing below is one query instead of an integration project.

Prophet 21 + GHX

Synopsis integrates Epicor Prophet 21 with GHX, reading invoice lines against the GPO contract price, with the EDI 844 chargeback request and the EDI 849 response tied back to the order they came from.

Prophet 21 + Salesforce

Synopsis connects Prophet 21 to Salesforce, putting what the rep quoted against what the contract actually paid, by account and SKU, so quoted margin and realized margin stop being two different numbers.

NetSuite + GHX

Synopsis syncs NetSuite with GHX, landing EDI 845 contract price updates next to invoices, so off-contract billing surfaces the week it happens instead of at quarter end.

Model N + Prophet 21

Synopsis joins Model N chargeback status to the Prophet 21 invoice it came from, so an open dispute reads with both prices on one screen.

Prophet 21 + Power BI

Synopsis connects Prophet 21 to Power BI, refreshing contract margin from the warehouse instead of a nightly export on one analyst's desktop.

GHX + QuickBooks

Synopsis connects GHX to QuickBooks, reconciling chargeback credits expected against credits actually received in the GL instead of a month-end surprise.

Prophet 21 + ShipStation

Synopsis joins Prophet 21 lot and ship dates to ShipStation parcels and customers, so a recall answers from one query instead of a document hunt.

Vistex + NetSuite

Synopsis integrates Vistex accruals with NetSuite settlements, so rebate and chargeback reserves stop drifting from what manufacturers actually pay.

Körber + Prophet 21

Synopsis joins Körber warehouse lots to Prophet 21 sales velocity by SKU, so short-dated product moves before it becomes a write-off.

Salesforce + Power BI

Synopsis connects Salesforce pipeline and account activity to invoiced revenue in Power BI, so customer growth reads net of returns, freight and disputes.

Also joined for distributors: NetSuite + Salesforce, Prophet 21 + QuickBooks, Prophet 21 + Sage Intacct, Dynamics 365 + GHX, Infor CloudSuite + TrueCommerce, SAP Business One + SPS Commerce, Prophet 21 + HubSpot, NetSuite + ShipStation, Prophet 21 + UPS WorldShip, Fishbowl + QuickBooks, Blue Yonder + NetSuite, Model N + NetSuite, Vistex + Prophet 21, GHX + Sage Intacct, Cleo + Dynamics 365, TrueCommerce + QuickBooks, project44 + NetSuite, Tableau + Prophet 21, and most pairings of the systems above.

Use cases

What distributors ask, and what an answer is worth.

Twelve questions distributors answer by hand today, each one query once the systems share a key.

Which chargebacks are open past 30 days, and for how much?

Synopsis joins GHX EDI 844 and 849 history, Prophet 21 invoices, and the contract price files, aged by manufacturer and GPO contract.

≈ $320K per year · illustrative

Which orders billed off-contract this week?

Synopsis reads Prophet 21 invoice lines against the latest EDI 845 price updates, flagged before the credit memo cycle starts.

≈ $60K per year · illustrative

Which lots expire inside 90 days, and who buys those SKUs?

Synopsis joins Körber or Fishbowl lot data to Prophet 21 sales velocity, so short-dated stock sells before the write-off.

≈ $45K per year · illustrative

Can we answer a recall today?

Synopsis joins WMS lot records, Prophet 21 orders, and ShipStation shipments: every customer, every lot, every ship date, in hours.

≈ $30K per year · illustrative

Are our rebate accruals right?

Synopsis reads Vistex or Model N accruals against settlements in NetSuite or Sage Intacct, so the reserve tracks what manufacturers actually pay.

≈ $50K per year · illustrative

Which accounts slipped their GPO tier?

Synopsis joins GPO membership rosters from GHX to invoice volume, catching tier drift before the audit does.

≈ $40K per year · illustrative

Which drop-ships never recovered freight?

Synopsis reads UPS WorldShip and FedEx billing files against the freight lines actually invoiced in the ERP.

≈ $25K per year · illustrative

Which disputed invoices are stretching DSO?

Synopsis joins AR aging in QuickBooks or Sage Intacct to the dispute log, so collections works the right accounts first.

≈ $35K per year · illustrative

What margin does each rep actually produce?

Synopsis reads Salesforce activity and quotes against realized contract margin in Prophet 21, net of chargebacks.

≈ $75K per year · illustrative

Which customers are unprofitable after freight and returns?

Synopsis joins invoices, freight spend, returns, and CRM effort on one customer key, so pricing conversations start from facts.

≈ $90K per year · illustrative

Which price files lag the contract effective date?

Synopsis reads contract effective dates against the EDI 845 apply date and the first invoice at the new price.

≈ $55K per year · illustrative

Which manufacturers dispute the most, and win?

Synopsis reads EDI 849 outcomes scored by manufacturer, so the next contract negotiation starts with the scorecard.

≈ $20K per year · illustrative

ROI figures are illustrative estimates for a distributor doing about $80M in annual revenue on low-single-digit operating margins, and they are a menu, not a sum. Your own numbers replace them in the first week on your data.

Questions

Answers before you ask.

Do we need a data team to use Synopsis?

No. It's built for independent, mid-market distributors where the contracts admin or the controller is the de facto report-builder, with no data-engineering staff. Your team asks in plain English.

Can it reconcile GPO chargebacks?

Your contract price files, invoices, and manufacturer chargeback statements land in the same warehouse, so open disputes read by manufacturer and contract with the invoice price and the GPO price on the same screen. Synopsis brings the records together for analysis; it doesn't replace your systems of record.

How fast can we answer a recall?

Lot and expiration data joins to every shipment, so a recall reads as every customer, every lot, every ship date, in hours instead of a document hunt. The same join backs your UDI record-keeping.

Does Synopsis integrate Prophet 21 with GHX?

Yes. Prophet 21 invoice lines and the GHX EDI 844 and 849 chargeback traffic land in one warehouse keyed to contract and customer, so billed price against contract price is one query. The same holds for NetSuite, TrueCommerce, Model N, Vistex and the other systems listed above.

We run a system that isn't listed here. Can you connect it?

Usually, yes. The AI builds the connector from an export or an API, and distributors typically have a new system flowing in days. If it can produce a file, it is a candidate.

How long until we can start asking questions?

Your first connected systems are answering questions in about 48 hours, and a full rollout lands in days, not a multi-quarter data project.

Does Synopsis replace the software we already use?

No. Your systems of record — ERP, CRM, accounting, and the rest — stay exactly where they are. Synopsis sits on top and joins them into one place you can query, so you report across everything instead of exporting from each tool.

Where does our data live, and is it secure?

Your data stays in your own warehouse — we don't keep a copy. Access is governed per user and every query is audit-logged. Synopsis is SOC 2 Type II, and you can review our live security posture in the Trust Center.

How is this different from a BI tool or a stack of dashboards?

BI tools chart data that something else already had to clean and join. Synopsis does that upstream work — connecting your systems, resolving entities, and enforcing your metric definitions — then answers in plain English, builds the dashboards, and traces every number back to its source.
