The main problem I see with Koha's API for this, is the fact that our current workflow Basket > Orderlines > close basket > receive is sometimes too complicated for vendors. Meaning they don't expect to understand that much how Koha does things internally.
I faced this when I wrote the GOBI plugin, which had a pretty similar spec. We could add the option to auto-create a basket (that's part of the original orders spec) and we definitely should have a route to add records. It really depends on how much we can make the external system adapt to Koha. Otherwise, you should take the plugin route, unfortunately.
