# Cin7 Core Integration

> Connect once, confirm the recommendation, and let Owlery handle the details.

Owlery connects Cin7 Core, formerly DEAR Inventory, to your freight operation. We synchronize sales, advanced purchases, stock transfers, products, and facilities, then configure the date write-back workflows that fit your process.

<Info>
  Cin7 Core and Cin7 Omni are separate products with different APIs and Owlery connectors. This guide covers the production Cin7 Core connector.

Most teams start with read-only synchronization. Date write-back can be introduced after your team validates the inbound records.

## Getting started

<Steps>
  <Step title="Connect">
    Your administrator provides a Cin7 Core API account ID and application key. Owlery validates access before synchronization begins.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Share sample transactions">
    Share representative sale, advanced-purchase, or stock-transfer numbers. Owlery learns your locations, units, fulfillment patterns, and exceptions from the records themselves.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Confirm the recommendation">
    Owlery presents the recommended order scope, mappings, filters, splitting behavior, and optional write-back. Your team confirms it matches how you operate.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Go live">
    Owlery validates normal and exception scenarios, starts synchronization, and monitors the first records and any enabled write-back. We maintain the configuration as your Cin7 Core workflow changes.
  </Step>
