Why teams connect Bill and Fishbowl Manufacturing

Keep Bill and Fishbowl Manufacturing agreeing on customers, invoices, and balances, whether they split the finance workload or one is replacing the other.

A dedicated finance tool and an ERP end up side by side for practical reasons: a subsidiary runs lighter software than headquarters, billing runs in a specialist system while the enterprise system holds the wider view, or the company is mid-migration and both are live. Whatever the split, the two systems describe overlapping customers and transactions, and that overlap drifts without a live connection.

Stacksync syncs Payments, Chart of Accounts, Bank Accounts, Vendor Credits and Credit Memos in Bill with Inventory, Sales orders, Purchase orders, Manufacture orders in Fishbowl Manufacturing in real time and in both directions. You decide which system wins on which field, and every change made in one is reflected in the other within seconds instead of at the next batch run.

Common use cases

  • 01 Write Vendors created during ERP onboarding into BILL so new payees are ready to pay without manual re-entry.
  • 02 Read Payments and payment status into a reconciliation database once bills are marked paid in BILL.
  • 03 Sync e-commerce orders into Fishbowl as sales orders and return fulfillment status and tracking numbers.
  • 04 Mirror on-hand inventory by location into sales channels to prevent overselling.
