Why teams connect Asana and QAD ERP
Bridge the tools people work in and the system the business runs on: real-time, two-way sync between Asana and QAD ERP.
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 Bridging them by hand, or by nightly file transfer, leaves each side out of date for hours at a time.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 Users, Portfolios, Tags, Teams / Workspaces in Asana with Items, Customers, Suppliers, Sales orders in QAD ERP 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 Push support tickets or intake requests from an operational database into Asana Tasks, then read completion and status Custom fields back when work finishes.
- 02 Sync Stories and completion changes from Asana into a database so downstream dashboards and tools react to project progress in near real time.
- 03 Consolidate data from multiple QAD instances, per plant or region, into one reporting database.
- 04 Sync items, customers, and orders between QAD and a CRM so sales teams work outside ERP screens.
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 QAD ERP carries account records
Order, invoice, or account status from QAD ERP appears alongside the customer in Asana, so front-line teams answer from live data.
Where QAD ERP is the HR or people system of record
Worker and organization data from QAD ERP stays current in Asana, so the tools people use daily reflect the org as it actually is.
What you can sync between Asana and QAD ERP
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 | QAD ERP 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. | Inventory balances Stock levels by site and location, synced for multi-plant visibility | Projects is specific to Asana and Inventory balances to QAD ERP — 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. | General ledger transactions Financial postings exported for consolidated reporting | Sections is specific to Asana and General ledger transactions to QAD ERP — 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. | Items Item master records shared with CRM, e-commerce, and planning systems | Custom fields is specific to Asana and Items to QAD ERP — 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. | Customers Account records kept consistent with the sales team's CRM | Stories is specific to Asana and Customers to QAD ERP — 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. | Suppliers Vendor master data aligned with procurement and AP automation tools | Users is specific to Asana and Suppliers to QAD ERP — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. | |
| Portfolios Collections of Projects for program-level rollup; read for cross-project status and progress reporting (Business and Enterprise). | Sales orders Demand records written in from EDI or e-commerce and read out for status | Portfolios is specific to Asana and Sales orders to QAD ERP — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. |
How changes propagate between Asana and QAD ERP
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 QAD ERP 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 QAD ERP through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.
QAD ERP Asana Interval-based propagation
DetectionStacksync polls QAD ERP for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling on the API surface.
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.
- QAD ERP: Subject to instance capacity and the platform's API limits.

FAQ
Asana and QAD ERP integration FAQ
-
Yes. Stacksync provides a managed, real-time two-way integration between Asana and QAD ERP: authenticate both systems, choose the objects to sync (such as Asana's Projects and Sections), map fields visually, and changes propagate both ways in milliseconds — no code required.
-
Yes — Stacksync ships production-grade connectors for both Asana and QAD ERP. The connectors handle authentication, schema detection, rate limits, and retries; you configure the sync, and Stacksync operates it.
-
Change detection on Asana: Resource-scoped webhooks (established with an X-Hook-Secret handshake) POST events on create, change, and delete; the sync-token Events API returns incremental changes on a task or project when webhooks are not used. On QAD ERP: Polling on the API surface; document-based event exchange available through QXtend in supported configurations. Each detected change propagates to the other side in milliseconds, with field-level conflict resolution and an inspectable event log.
-
On the Asana side: Users, Portfolios, Tags, Teams / Workspaces, plus custom fields where Asana exposes them. On the QAD ERP side: Items, Customers, Suppliers, Sales orders. 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 Asana and QAD ERP: Master data corrections travel; Where Asana faces customers and QAD ERP carries account records; Where QAD ERP is the HR or people system of record.
