Why teams connect Azure Active Directory and Extensiv (3PL Central)

Keep the employee, group, and account records that Extensiv (3PL Central) 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. Extensiv (3PL Central) 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 Extensiv (3PL Central) and their account still being active in Azure Active Directory is a real security exposure.

Stacksync syncs Receivers, Shipments, Warehouses, Inventory adjustments in Extensiv (3PL Central) with Devices, Users, Groups, Group memberships 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 Consolidate order and shipment data across 3PL clients into a reporting database for billing and SLA tracking.
  • 02 Sync commerce or ERP orders into 3PL Central for fulfillment, and sync shipment confirmations with tracking numbers back.
  • 03 Replicate Groups and their Members into a Postgres warehouse for access reviews and entitlement reporting.
  • 04 Mirror Applications and Service principals into a database or CMDB to track app ownership and credential expiry.

Common sync patterns

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.

Keep profile attributes current

A name, email, title, manager, or department corrected in either system updates the other, so directory entries and employee records don't drift apart.

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.

What you can sync between Azure Active Directory and Extensiv (3PL Central)

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 Extensiv (3PL Central) objects How this pairing syncs
Applications App registrations under /applications; usually read into a database or CMDB for app ownership and credential-expiry tracking. Warehouses Facility records that partition inventory and order routing. Applications is specific to Azure Active Directory and Warehouses to Extensiv (3PL Central) — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Service principals /servicePrincipals (enterprise apps) plus appRoleAssignments; read for app inventory and access-posture reporting. Inventory adjustments Manual stock corrections that reconciliation syncs need to capture. Service principals is specific to Azure Active Directory and Inventory adjustments to Extensiv (3PL Central) — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Directory roles /directoryRoles and roleManagement assignments; read for privileged-access reviews, with role-assignment writes where the granted scopes permit. Customers The 3PL's clients; nearly every other record is scoped to one, so syncs carry customer context on each call. Directory roles is specific to Azure Active Directory and Customers to Extensiv (3PL Central) — 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. Items SKU masters kept aligned between the merchant's systems and the warehouse. Devices is specific to Azure Active Directory and Items to Extensiv (3PL Central) — 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. Inventory On-hand and available quantities by warehouse, mirrored out to drive channel availability. Users is specific to Azure Active Directory and Inventory to Extensiv (3PL Central) — 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. Orders Outbound fulfillment orders pushed in from commerce or ERP systems. Groups is specific to Azure Active Directory and Orders to Extensiv (3PL Central) — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Azure Active Directory and Extensiv (3PL Central)

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 Extensiv (3PL Central) 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 Extensiv (3PL Central) through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Extensiv (3PL Central) Azure Active Directory Sub-second propagation

DetectionExtensiv (3PL Central) notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhook events for order, receipt, item, and inventory changes, with polling on modified-date filters 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.
  • Extensiv (3PL Central): Subject to the platform's API rate limits; batch endpoints reduce call volume for order and inventory syncs.
