Two-way sync
Changes in Active Directory or Fishbowl Manufacturing instantly reflect in both systems. No stale data, no manual imports.
Keep Active Directory and Fishbowl Manufacturing in sync without custom scripts. Cut weeks of integration work, eliminate silent data drift, and give your team a single, reliable source of truth.
An ERP and an identity system describe the same workforce from two angles. Fishbowl Manufacturing holds the authoritative record of who works at the company, and often their department, title, manager, and cost center. Active Directory controls the accounts, groups, and access those same people use every day. When the two aren't connected, every hire, transfer, and departure has to be keyed twice, and the window between someone leaving in Fishbowl Manufacturing and their account still being active in Active Directory is a real security exposure.
Stacksync syncs Customers, Vendors, Locations, Parts in Fishbowl Manufacturing with Groups, Group memberships, Devices, Directory roles in Active Directory in real time, with field-level mapping and conflict resolution in place of CSV exports and nightly jobs. A new hire, a department change, or a termination propagates within seconds, and where you want changes to flow both ways — the ERP's org data into the directory, account status back into the ERP — the same mapping handles it.
That matters most at offboarding and audit time. When the directory reflects the ERP's current headcount and org structure, disabling access no longer depends on someone remembering to update a second system, and access reviews start from a roster both sides already agree on.
A name, email, title, manager, or department corrected in either system updates the other, so directory entries and employee records don't drift apart.
When someone changes team or department, their group or organizational-unit membership updates to match, keeping access tied to their current role.
People are matched across both systems on an identifier you choose, such as work email or employee ID, so there is a single accurate list of who is active.
Representative objects on each side — any object or custom field can map to any target. Schemas are auto-detected; types are converted between the two systems.
| Active Directory objects | Fishbowl Manufacturing objects | How this pairing syncs | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Group memberships Member and owner links between users and groups; membership add/remove changes are surfaced by delta query. | Sales orders Created from commerce or CRM systems; fulfillment status syncs back. | Group memberships is specific to Active Directory and Sales orders to Fishbowl Manufacturing — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. | |
| Devices Registered and joined device objects; typically read into a database for inventory and compliance reporting. | Purchase orders Pushed from procurement tools; receipts sync back on arrival. | Devices is specific to Active Directory and Purchase orders to Fishbowl Manufacturing — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. | |
| Directory roles Admin role assignments (directoryRole); read for access reviews and least-privilege governance. | Manufacture orders Production work whose status feeds planning dashboards. | Directory roles is specific to Active Directory and Manufacture orders to Fishbowl Manufacturing — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. | |
| Service principals & applications App registrations and enterprise apps; read-mostly for entitlement and license inventory. | Bills of materials Component structures read for costing and material planning. | Service principals & applications is specific to Active Directory and Bills of materials to Fishbowl Manufacturing — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. | |
| Organizational units On-prem AD DS containers (LDAP organizationalUnit) used to scope which users and groups a sync includes. | Customers Buyer records kept aligned with a CRM. | Organizational units is specific to Active Directory and Customers to Fishbowl Manufacturing — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. | |
| Organizational contacts Directory contact objects (orgContact); synced for shared address-book and CRM person records. | Vendors Supplier records synced with purchasing systems. | Organizational contacts is specific to Active Directory and Vendors to Fishbowl Manufacturing — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. |
Each direction of the sync is driven by what the source system can signal and what the destination accepts — detection, delivery, and expected latency below.
DetectionActive Directory notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Microsoft Graph delta query (change tracking) for Users and Groups, plus change-notification subscriptions (webhooks) for near-real-time triggers.
DeliveryEach detected change is written to Fishbowl Manufacturing through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.
DetectionStacksync polls Fishbowl Manufacturing for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling on last-modified fields.

Yes. Stacksync provides a managed, real-time two-way integration between Active Directory and Fishbowl Manufacturing: authenticate both systems, choose the objects to sync (such as Active Directory's Group memberships and Devices), map fields visually, and changes propagate both ways in milliseconds — no code required.
Yes — Stacksync ships production-grade connectors for both Active Directory and Fishbowl Manufacturing. The connectors handle authentication, schema detection, rate limits, and retries; you configure the sync, and Stacksync operates it.
Change detection on Active Directory: Microsoft Graph delta query (change tracking) for Users and Groups, plus change-notification subscriptions (webhooks) for near-real-time triggers; on-prem AD DS uses the DirSync control and uSNChanged polling. On Fishbowl Manufacturing: Polling on last-modified fields; Fishbowl does not provide webhooks. Each detected change propagates to the other side in milliseconds, with field-level conflict resolution and an inspectable event log.
On the Fishbowl Manufacturing side: Customers, Vendors, Locations, Parts, plus custom fields where Fishbowl Manufacturing exposes them. On the Active Directory side: Groups, Group memberships, Devices, Directory roles. Stacksync auto-detects both schemas and converts types between the two systems.
Yes. Each object mapping can be bidirectional or restricted to a single direction (both systems accept writes). Read-only mirrors, one-way pushes, and full two-way sync can be mixed in the same integration.
Common patterns for Active Directory and Fishbowl Manufacturing: Keep profile attributes current; Align group and department membership; One roster on a shared key. A name, email, title, manager, or department corrected in either system updates the other, so directory entries and employee records don't drift apart.
