Why teams connect Azure Active Directory and Brightpearl

Keep the employee, group, and account records that Brightpearl and Azure 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. Brightpearl holds the authoritative record of who works at the company, and often their department, title, manager, and cost center. Azure 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 Brightpearl and their account still being active in Azure Active Directory is a real security exposure.

Stacksync syncs Products, Sales orders, Purchase orders, Contacts in Brightpearl with Group memberships, Applications, Service principals, Directory roles in Azure 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 the product catalog aligned between Brightpearl and e-commerce channels, including price list changes.
  • 02 Land order and margin data in a warehouse for retail performance reporting.
  • 03 Reconcile Entra ID Users and assignedLicenses with an ITSM or finance database to audit license allocation and reclaim unused seats.
  • 04 Provision and deprovision Entra ID Users and Group memberships from an HR system of record so account enablement follows employment status.

Common sync patterns

Align group and department membership

When someone changes team or department, their group or organizational-unit membership updates to match, keeping access tied to their current role.

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.

What you can sync between Azure Active Directory and Brightpearl

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.

Azure Active Directory objects Brightpearl objects How this pairing syncs
Directory roles /directoryRoles and roleManagement assignments; read for privileged-access reviews, with role-assignment writes where the granted scopes permit. Invoices and payments Financial documents synced to accounting platforms for reconciliation. Directory roles is specific to Azure Active Directory and Invoices and payments to Brightpearl — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Devices /devices registered or joined to the tenant; typically read-only into asset and security databases. Custom fields Per-object custom attributes included in field mappings. Devices is specific to Azure Active Directory and Custom fields to Brightpearl — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Users /users in Microsoft Graph; synced two-way — profile attributes, accountEnabled, and assignedLicenses are read out while provisioning writes (create, update, disable, delete) are pushed back. Products SKU records with variants and price lists, synced with e-commerce and ERP catalogs. Users is specific to Azure Active Directory and Products to Brightpearl — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Groups /groups covering security and Microsoft 365 groups; created, updated, and deleted through Graph, and read into warehouses for entitlement reporting. Sales orders Orders from all channels; the central object for fulfillment and revenue syncs. Groups is specific to Azure Active Directory and Sales orders to Brightpearl — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Group memberships Member and owner relationships on /groups/{id}/members; added and removed via the $ref endpoint and tracked for changes with delta query on $select=members. Purchase orders Supplier orders synced with procurement or accounting systems. Group memberships is specific to Azure Active Directory and Purchase orders to Brightpearl — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Applications App registrations under /applications; usually read into a database or CMDB for app ownership and credential-expiry tracking. Contacts Customers and suppliers in one contact model, matched to CRM records by email or reference. Applications is specific to Azure Active Directory and Contacts to Brightpearl — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Azure Active Directory and Brightpearl

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.

Azure Active Directory Brightpearl Sub-second propagation

DetectionAzure Active Directory notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Microsoft Graph delta query (deltaLink tokens returning only changed users and groups, with @removed deletions) paired with change-notification.

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

Brightpearl Azure Active Directory Sub-second propagation

DetectionBrightpearl notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhooks for object created/updated events, with resource search polling as a fallback.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Azure Active Directory: Resource-unit throttling: roughly 8,000 ResourceUnits per 10 seconds per app for reads on tenants over 500 users, writes near 3,000 requests per 2.5 minutes; 429 responses include a Retry-After header.
  • Brightpearl: Requests are throttled per account under Brightpearl's API usage policies; bulk operations should use batch endpoints.
