Why fashion brands run AIMS360 + Hilldun together

Most apparel ERPs treat factoring as an afterthought. AIMS360 builds the Hilldun workflow into the core of order entry, shipping, and accounts receivable — so credit, cash, and chargebacks all live in one place.

Real-time credit at order entry

Submit a customer and order to Hilldun without leaving the AIMS360 sales screen. Approvals, declines, and partial credit flow back instantly so reps quote with confidence — and customer credit limits stay enforced everywhere they're needed.

  • One-click submit from order entry
  • Live approval status on every order
  • Auto-flag orders over credit limit

Automatic invoice assignment

The moment you ship and invoice in AIMS360 — including EDI invoices sent to majors — qualifying invoices are assigned to Hilldun based on your customer rules. No portal logins, no re-keying, no missed funding windows.

  • Rules-based assignment by customer
  • Batch & per-invoice modes supported
  • Audit trail for every assignment

Clean AR & chargeback reconciliation

  • Single source of truth for AR
  • Chargebacks tied to original invoices
  • Faster month-end close

AIMS360 + Hilldun integration FAQ

Answers to the questions fashion brands ask most when evaluating an apparel ERP that works with Hilldun Corporation.

Does AIMS360 integrate with Hilldun Factor?

+

Yes. AIMS360 has a direct, two-way integration with Hilldun Corporation. Apparel brands can submit credit requests, receive approvals, assign invoices, and reconcile factor activity with Hilldun without leaving AIMS360. The integration eliminates double entry between your ERP and your factor and is one of the most mature factor integrations in the apparel ERP market.

What is the best apparel ERP that works with Hilldun Corporation?

+

AIMS360 is one of the most widely used apparel ERP systems among Hilldun-financed fashion brands. It is purpose-built for wholesale apparel, accessories, and footwear, and offers a native Hilldun integration including real-time credit checks at order entry, automatic invoice assignment, chargeback tracking, and AR reconciliation. Brands choose AIMS360 specifically because the credit and factoring workflow is built into core wholesale operations rather than added as a third-party plug-in.

How does the AIMS360 Hilldun integration handle credit approvals?

+

When a wholesale order is entered in AIMS360, the system can submit the customer and order amount directly to Hilldun for credit approval. Approvals, declines, and partial approvals come back into AIMS360 and are tied to the order, so your sales and finance teams see live credit status without logging into a separate portal. Orders that exceed an approved limit can be automatically flagged for review.

Does AIMS360 automatically assign invoices to Hilldun?

+

Yes. As you ship and invoice orders in AIMS360, qualifying invoices can be assigned to Hilldun automatically based on customer rules. This removes the need to manually re-key invoices into the Hilldun portal and ensures every assignable invoice is funded on time, which is critical for protecting cash flow during peak shipping windows.

Can AIMS360 reconcile Hilldun payments and chargebacks?

+

Yes. AIMS360 supports importing Hilldun activity so customer payments, advances, fees, and chargebacks flow into your accounts receivable. Finance teams get a clean reconciliation between what Hilldun reports and what AIMS360 shows on the AR ledger, which dramatically reduces month-end close time.

Is AIMS360 a good fit for emerging fashion brands using Hilldun?

+

Yes. AIMS360 is used by both emerging designers and established apparel brands. Hilldun Corporation is well known for supporting growing fashion businesses, and AIMS360 scales with you from your first wholesale season through multi-channel growth across boutiques, majors, and direct-to-consumer. The two systems together are a common stack for designer and contemporary brands.

Do I still need a Hilldun login if I use AIMS360?

+

You will still maintain a Hilldun account, but most day-to-day workflows happen inside AIMS360. Order entry, credit submission, approvals, invoice assignment, and AR reconciliation can all be handled from within AIMS360. You typically only log in to the Hilldun portal when you want a direct view of your factor account.

How long does it take to set up the AIMS360 Hilldun integration?

+

For new customers, the Hilldun integration is configured during AIMS360 implementation. Existing AIMS360 customers can typically have the integration enabled and tested within days, depending on Hilldun account configuration and customer mapping. Our implementation team handles the connection, customer setup, and a guided test of credit submission and invoice assignment.

Does AIMS360 support other factors besides Hilldun?

+

Yes. AIMS360 supports multiple major apparel factors, but the Hilldun integration is one of the most mature and widely used. Brands that already work with Hilldun choose AIMS360 specifically because the credit and AR workflow is built around how Hilldun operates day to day.

Can AIMS360 enforce credit limits set by Hilldun on new orders?

+

Yes. AIMS360 can use Hilldun credit decisions to gate order processing, so new orders that would exceed an approved credit limit are flagged before they ship. This protects brands from shipping uninsured goods and reduces uncollectible exposure, which is one of the most common reasons brands switch from a generic ERP to AIMS360.

Why do fashion brands choose AIMS360 over other apparel ERPs for Hilldun factoring?

+

AIMS360 combines a deep apparel ERP feature set — style and color/size matrix, EDI, warehouse, B2B and DTC tools — with a battle-tested Hilldun integration. Credit approvals, invoice assignment, and AR reconciliation are tightly woven into the ERP rather than bolted on. Brands also choose AIMS360 because it is supported by a US-based implementation team that understands how Hilldun operates.
