RECY Systems API

RECY Systems—now operating as AMCS Platform for Metal after AMCS acquired it in 2019—is a vertical ERP built for the metal-recycling and scrap industry, covering inventory and stock control, material grading, commodity trading and brokerage, weighbridge integration, logistics, purchase and sales orders, contract and price management, and cash/cashless payments through AMCS Financials. An unofficial API lets you programmatically pull stock, grading, trades, weigh tickets, orders, and payment data—and push updates like new grading records, purchase orders, and settlements—back into a system that otherwise keeps the yard's operating data trapped behind an enterprise, partner-gated platform.

What is RECY Systems?

RECY Systems is a specialized ERP for the metal-recycling and scrap industry. Acquired by AMCS in 2019, it now operates as the AMCS Platform for Metal and powers ferrous and non-ferrous metal recyclers—plus operators handling paper, wood, plastics, and textiles—from inbound material receipt through grading, trading, logistics, and settlement. Recyclers use RECY to run inventory and stock control, grade incoming material, trade and broker commodities, integrate weighbridges and platform scales, manage inbound and outbound freight, process purchase and sales orders, administer contracts and pricing, and reconcile cash and cashless payments through the AMCS Financials accounting module.

Core product areas include:

  • Inventory and stock control for ferrous, non-ferrous, and mixed-material yards
  • Material grading, including a mobile grading app for yardmasters to grade material during unloading with contamination monitoring
  • Commodity trading and brokerage used by large recycling trading companies
  • Weighbridge and truck/platform scale integration for reliable data flow with no duplicate entry
  • Transport and logistics with intelligent dispatching and freight cost control across inbound and outbound flows
  • Purchase and sales orders with self-billing, plus contract management for volume, metal content, fixed/unfixed pricing, and recovery percentages
  • Pricing management for frequent market-driven adjustments, cash and cashless purchasing, and AMCS Financials for AR/AP, automated accounting entries, and country-specific VAT compliance

Common data entities:

  • Stock items, material grades, inventory lots, locations
  • Grading records, contamination assessments, yard tickets
  • Purchase orders, sales orders, contracts, brokerage trades
  • Weighbridge tickets, gross/tare/net weights, scale readings
  • Suppliers, customers, transport orders, freight records
  • Cash/cashless payments, self-billing invoices, settlements, accounting entries

The RECY Systems Integration Challenge

Recyclers run their entire yard on RECY daily, but the operating data—stock, grades, trades, weights, logistics, and payments—stays trapped inside an enterprise platform with no public self-serve API:

  • No public developer portal: RECY/AMCS Platform for Metal is sold as an enterprise system, with access gated behind partnership and implementation agreements rather than a self-serve API key
  • Vertical, yard-specific data model: grades, recovery percentages, weighbridge tickets, and metal-content contracts don't map to any generic ERP schema
  • Mobile-captured grading: material grading happens in a mobile app at the point of unloading, so that data lives behind app sessions rather than an open endpoint
  • Scale and weighbridge coupling: weights flow directly from truck and platform scales into RECY, and any integration must respect that hardware-driven data path
  • Country-specific financials: self-billing, VAT compliance, and AMCS Financials accounting rules vary by jurisdiction and must be preserved on every transaction
  • Volatile pricing: frequent market-driven price changes mean trades, contracts, and settlements carry effective-dated pricing that integrations have to handle precisely

How Supergood Creates RECY Systems APIs

Supergood reverse-engineers RECY Systems' authenticated browser and application flows to deliver a resilient API layer over your AMCS Platform for Metal deployment—without waiting on a partner-gated integration program.

  • Handles username/password and MFA securely within a managed session
  • Maintains session continuity with automated refresh and change detection
  • Normalizes responses across stock, grading, trading, weighbridge, orders, and payment objects so you integrate once and rely on consistent entities
  • Preserves yard-specific fields—grades, recovery percentages, weights, and contract pricing—rather than forcing a generic ERP schema

Frequently asked questions

RECY Systems—now AMCS Platform for Metal—is an enterprise ERP without a public self-serve developer portal; integration access is typically gated behind partnership and implementation agreements. Supergood works against your existing authenticated sessions to give you a reliable API surface without that gate.

Yes. AMCS acquired RECY Systems in 2019, and the product now operates as the AMCS Platform for Metal. Supergood works against the same deployment regardless of which brand name your environment uses.

Yes. Material grading captured in the mobile grading app at the point of unloading is exposed through the same normalized API surface, alongside stock, weighbridge, and order data.

Weighbridge tickets and gross/tare/net weights that flow from truck and platform scales into RECY are surfaced as normalized records, so you can consume weights downstream without duplicate data entry.

Yes. Cash and cashless payments, self-billing invoices, settlements, and automated accounting entries—including country-specific VAT handling—are available through the API for reconciliation into AR/AP and your general ledger.
