Why teams connect Asana and Infor LN

Bridge the tools people work in and the system the business runs on: real-time, two-way sync between Asana and Infor LN.

The ERP holds the records the business is run on, and it is rarely where day-to-day work happens. Asana is closer to the work, and the two often need the same facts about the same people, organizations, and transactions. Bridging them by hand, or by nightly file transfer, leaves each side out of date for hours at a time.

Stacksync syncs Projects, Sections, Custom fields, Stories in Asana with Business partners, Sales orders, Purchase orders, Production orders in Infor LN bi-directionally and in real time, with field-level mapping and rules for which system wins on conflict. Changes made where the work happens reach the system of record within seconds, and the reverse.

Common use cases

  • 01 Sync Stories and completion changes from Asana into a database so downstream dashboards and tools react to project progress in near real time.
  • 02 Two-way sync of Tasks and their Custom fields between an Asana project and Postgres so ops teams work in SQL while project owners stay in Asana.
  • 03 Keep inventory positions aligned between LN and distribution or aftermarket service systems.
  • 04 Sync item masters, BOMs, and production orders between LN and MES or PLM systems on the shop floor.

Common sync patterns

Master data corrections travel

A customer, supplier, or contact detail corrected in either system updates the other, ending duplicate maintenance.

Where Asana faces customers and Infor LN carries account records

Order, invoice, or account status from Infor LN appears alongside the customer in Asana, so front-line teams answer from live data.

Where Infor LN is the HR or people system of record

Worker and organization data from Infor LN stays current in Asana, so the tools people use daily reflect the org as it actually is.

What you can sync between Asana and Infor LN

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.

Asana objects Infor LN objects How this pairing syncs
Projects Collections of Tasks with a layout (list, board, timeline, calendar); each project maps to a synced table scope and its custom fields define the mapping. Projects Project structures used in engineer-to-order manufacturing scenarios. Same entity on both sides — records pair one-to-one and field-level changes reconcile in both directions. Custom fields on either side are included in the mapping.
Tasks The primary unit of work and main record; created, updated, completed, and deleted via REST and synced two-way. Subtasks are Tasks with a parent reference. Items Manufacturing item masters synced to PLM, MES, and commerce systems. Tasks is specific to Asana and Items to Infor LN — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Sections Ordered groupings of Tasks within a project; synced as a grouping attribute or category field on the row. Bills of material Product structures shared with engineering and planning tools. Sections is specific to Asana and Bills of material to Infor LN — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Custom fields Typed fields (text, number, enum, multi-enum, date, people) defined at project or workspace level; mapped to database columns, with enum values written by option GID. Business partners LN's unified customer/supplier records matched against CRM accounts. Custom fields is specific to Asana and Business partners to Infor LN — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Stories Comments and activity entries on a Task; read out for history and reporting or written back as comments. Sales orders Demand documents synced in from EDI and commerce channels. Stories is specific to Asana and Sales orders to Infor LN — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Users Members of a workspace or organization referenced by assignee and follower fields; read to resolve GIDs to names and emails. Purchase orders Supply documents shared with supplier and procurement systems. Users is specific to Asana and Purchase orders to Infor LN — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Asana and Infor LN

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.

Asana Infor LN Sub-second propagation

DetectionAsana notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Resource-scoped webhooks (established with an X-Hook-Secret handshake) POST events on create, change, and delete.

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

Infor LN Asana Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Infor LN 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 Asana through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Rate-limit considerations

  • Asana: Per token: 1,500 requests/minute on paid plans, 150/minute on free; the Search API is capped at 60/minute; concurrency caps at 50 GET and 15 write requests. Exceeding a limit returns HTTP 429 with a Retry-After header, and a separate cost-based limiter applies to complex graph traversals.
  • Infor LN: Subject to the ION API gateway's tenant rate limits in cloud deployments.
