Why teams connect Bigcommerce and DEAR Inventory

Keep the storefront in step with the back office: Bigcommerce and DEAR Inventory share products, inventory, and orders in real time, in both directions.

Bigcommerce runs the storefront and takes the orders; DEAR Inventory 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 Shipments, Products, Variants and SKUs, Orders in Bigcommerce with Assemblies / Production, Locations, Products, Stock levels in DEAR Inventory field by field, in real time, and in both directions. You decide which system owns which fields — stock and pricing from DEAR Inventory, order and customer detail from Bigcommerce — and Stacksync keeps every copy consistent and resolves conflicts by rules you set.

Common use cases

  • 01 Push Price Lists from an ERP into BigCommerce to drive customer-group and B2B pricing without manual catalog edits.
  • 02 Two-way sync of Products and Variants between BigCommerce and a PIM or ERP so catalog content, SKUs, and pricing stay aligned across systems.
  • 03 Push sale orders from a storefront or CRM into DEAR for fulfillment without manual re-entry.
  • 04 Land orders, costs, and inventory movements in a warehouse for margin and stock-turn reporting.

Common sync patterns

One customer master

Where both systems keep customer records, a correction in either propagates to the other, ending dual maintenance.

Where DEAR Inventory is the inventory system of record: stock stays accurate

Available quantities from DEAR Inventory publish to Bigcommerce, so the store shows what can actually ship and stops overselling.

New orders reach the back office

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Bigcommerce: OAuth quota refreshes every 30 seconds and varies by plan (about 20,000 requests/hour on Standard and Plus, 60,000 on Pro, higher on Enterprise); the X-Rate-Limit-Requests-Left header reports remaining calls.
  • DEAR Inventory: Subject to the platform's per-account API rate limits.
