Why teams connect Active Directory and Unleashed Software

Keep the employee, group, and account records that Unleashed Software and Active Directory share aligned in real time, so a person added, moved, or offboarded in one system shows up correctly in the other within seconds.

An ERP and an identity system describe the same workforce from two angles. Unleashed Software 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 Unleashed Software and their account still being active in Active Directory is a real security exposure.

Stacksync syncs Suppliers, Warehouses, Stock Adjustments, Bills of Materials in Unleashed Software with Directory roles, Service principals & applications, Organizational units, Organizational contacts 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.

Common use cases

  • 01 Keep Products and pricing aligned between Unleashed and accounting or PIM systems.
  • 02 Mirror Purchase Orders and supplier data to a data warehouse for procurement reporting.
  • 03 Two-way sync Users and Groups between Microsoft Entra ID and an HRIS or Postgres so joiners, movers, and leavers provision and deprovision automatically.
  • 04 Read Users, Groups, and directoryRole assignments into a warehouse for periodic access reviews and SOC 2 audit evidence.

Common sync patterns

One roster on a shared key

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.

Create accounts from new records

A person added in one system gets a matching account or record in the other automatically, so a new hire can be granted access without anyone re-keying their details.

Disable access at offboarding

When a person is marked terminated or inactive in one system, the matching account is disabled in the other within seconds, closing the gap that leaves ex-employees with live access.

What you can sync between Active Directory and Unleashed Software

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 Unleashed Software objects How this pairing syncs
Devices Registered and joined device objects; typically read into a database for inventory and compliance reporting. Purchase Orders Inbound supply orders synced for procurement visibility. Devices is specific to Active Directory and Purchase Orders to Unleashed Software — 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. Customers Buyer records with pricing tiers and delivery addresses. Directory roles is specific to Active Directory and Customers to Unleashed Software — 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. Suppliers Vendor records referenced on purchase orders. Service principals & applications is specific to Active Directory and Suppliers to Unleashed Software — 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. Warehouses Stock locations that scope inventory quantities and order fulfillment. Organizational units is specific to Active Directory and Warehouses to Unleashed Software — 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. Stock Adjustments Manual quantity or value corrections synced for audit and reporting. Organizational contacts is specific to Active Directory and Stock Adjustments to Unleashed Software — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Users User accounts in Entra ID and on-prem AD DS; synced two-way to create, update attributes, and enable or disable accounts. Bills of Materials Production definitions used by assemblies; relevant for manufacturers syncing production data. Users is specific to Active Directory and Bills of Materials to Unleashed Software — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Active Directory and Unleashed Software

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.

Active Directory Unleashed Software Sub-second propagation

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 Unleashed Software through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Unleashed Software Active Directory Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Unleashed Software for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling with modified-date filters on list endpoints.

DeliveryEach detected change is written to Active Directory through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Rate-limit considerations

  • Active Directory: Graph throttles by resource-unit cost per app per tenant in 10-second windows (about 3,500–8,000 units by tenant size); directory delta tokens expire after ~7 days.
  • Unleashed Software: Subject to the platform's API rate limits; paginate list endpoints and batch where possible.

How the Active Directory and Unleashed Software connectors work

Active Directory

Integration surface
Microsoft Graph REST API (Entra ID / cloud) and LDAP/LDAPS (on-premises AD DS)
Authentication
OAuth 2.0 via the Microsoft identity platform — an app registration with application or delegated permissions (e.g. User.ReadWrite.All, Group.ReadWrite.All) and admin consent; on-prem AD DS uses a bound service account over LDAPS.
Change detection
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.
