Why teams connect Akeneo and Infor CloudSuite

Keep the storefront in step with the back office: Akeneo and Infor CloudSuite share products, inventory, and orders in real time, in both directions.

Akeneo runs the storefront and takes the orders; Infor CloudSuite owns the item master, the stock on hand, and the finance behind every transaction. The two overlap wherever the same products, customers, and sales matter to both — and when re-keying or an overnight batch is what connects them, the store oversells items it can't ship, quotes prices finance never set, or leaves buyers waiting on status that already changed.

Stacksync syncs Products, Product models, Categories, Attributes in Akeneo with Suppliers / vendors, Sales orders, Purchase orders, Invoices in Infor CloudSuite field by field, in real time, and in both directions. You decide which system owns which fields — stock and pricing from Infor CloudSuite, order and customer detail from Akeneo — and Stacksync keeps every copy consistent and resolves conflicts by rules you set.

Common use cases

  • 01 Two-way sync Products and product models with an operational Postgres database or ERP so SKUs, prices, and localized descriptions stay aligned across systems.
  • 02 Push enriched Products and their Assets into an ecommerce storefront or commerce database when product.created and product.updated webhooks fire.
  • 03 Sync items, customers, and orders between CloudSuite and a CRM so sales quotes against live pricing and inventory.
  • 04 Flow ecommerce orders into CloudSuite and return order status and shipment data to the storefront.

Common sync patterns

Where Infor CloudSuite is the inventory system of record: stock stays accurate

Available quantities from Infor CloudSuite publish to Akeneo, so the store shows what can actually ship and stops overselling.

New orders reach the back office

An order captured in Akeneo creates the matching record in Infor CloudSuite with customer, line items, and totals, so fulfillment and invoicing start without re-entry.

One product catalog

Where both systems keep item records, SKUs, descriptions, and attributes stay aligned so the store and the back office describe the same product.

What you can sync between Akeneo and Infor CloudSuite

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.

Akeneo objects Infor CloudSuite objects How this pairing syncs
Categories The category tree used to classify products; read out for storefront navigation or written in from an ERP to seed catalog structure. Sales orders Demand-side documents synced in from commerce channels and out for fulfillment visibility. Categories is specific to Akeneo and Sales orders to Infor CloudSuite — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Attributes Attribute definitions plus attribute options and groups; describe the shape of product data, usually mastered in Akeneo and read downstream. Purchase orders Supply-side documents shared with procurement and supplier portals. Attributes is specific to Akeneo and Purchase orders to Infor CloudSuite — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Families and family variants Templates defining which attributes a product carries and how variants axis out; synced to keep catalog structure consistent across systems. Invoices Billing documents synced to finance and reporting systems. Families and family variants is specific to Akeneo and Invoices to Infor CloudSuite — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Reference entities and records Structured lookups like brands, manufacturers, or ingredients with their own records (Enterprise Edition); synced two-way or read into a warehouse for reporting. Inventory balances On-hand quantities exposed so external channels quote against real stock. Reference entities and records is specific to Akeneo and Inventory balances to Infor CloudSuite — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Assets Asset-family media (images, documents) managed in Akeneo's DAM; linked to products and synced to storefronts and commerce systems. GL journal entries Financial postings replicated for consolidated reporting. Assets is specific to Akeneo and GL journal entries to Infor CloudSuite — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Channels and locales Target-market settings that scope attribute values; read to resolve which localized or channel-specific value to map on each side of a sync. Items Product and material masters synced to commerce, CRM, and planning tools. Channels and locales is specific to Akeneo and Items to Infor CloudSuite — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Akeneo and Infor CloudSuite

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.

Akeneo Infor CloudSuite Sub-second propagation

DetectionAkeneo notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Events API webhooks (product.created, product.updated, product.deleted, plus product-model equivalents.

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

Infor CloudSuite Akeneo Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Infor CloudSuite for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Event-style BOD publications through Infor ION where configured.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Akeneo: REST protection triggers above roughly 100 requests/second per PIM instance (HTTP 429 with Retry-After); the Events API caps at 4000 requests/hour with a 500ms webhook ack timeout.
  • Infor CloudSuite: Subject to the ION API gateway's rate limiting policies for the tenant.

How the Akeneo and Infor CloudSuite connectors work

Akeneo

Integration surface
REST API (plus a GraphQL API) and an Events API for webhooks
Authentication
OAuth2 password grant: client_id/secret plus an API user's username/password exchanged at /api/oauth/v1/token for a bearer access_token and refresh_token; Apps use the OAuth2 authorization-code flow
Change detection
Events API webhooks (product.created, product.updated, product.deleted, plus product-model equivalents; product.updated.delta carries old and new values); falls back to polling the 'updated' datetime search filter where the Events API is unavailable
