Why teams connect Citus and Infor M3

Give your engineers Infor M3's data in Citus: read it with normal queries, write back through the sync, and skip the ERP API entirely.

ERP data sits behind interfaces built for the ERP's own modules, not for your internal systems. Teams that need those records, for reporting services, internal tools, or automations, end up writing integration code against a strict API and maintaining it through every upgrade.

Stacksync mirrors Warehouses, Price Lists, Items, Customers from Infor M3 into Citus and keeps both sides consistent in real time. Whatever Infor M3 is the system of record for, whether financials, operations, people, or procurement, those records become rows your code can query, and changes written in Citus sync back into Infor M3 with its validations respected.

Common use cases

  • Use a Citus cluster as the scalable operational store behind a customer-facing app while syncing summaries back to internal tools.
  • Consolidate per-tenant rows from distributed tables into per-customer reporting databases.
  • Push orders captured in a CRM into M3 as customer orders without manual re-entry
  • Mirror M3 customers and invoices into a CRM or warehouse so sales and finance share one AR view

Controlled write-back

Choose exactly which tables and fields may flow from Citus back into Infor M3, keeping the ERP authoritative.

Read ERP records with a query

Records from Infor M3 live in Citus as ordinary tables or collections, joinable with the rest of your data.

Internal tools and automations without API code

Scripts and services read and write the synced tables; Stacksync handles the Infor M3 interface, limits, and retries.

What you can sync between Citus and Infor M3

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.

Citus objects Infor M3 objects
Distributed tables Tables sharded across worker nodes by a distribution column; the main sync target for large datasets. Inventory Balances On-hand quantities by warehouse drive available-to-promise in downstream channels.
Reference tables Small lookup tables replicated to every node, synced like ordinary Postgres tables. Invoices Billing documents flow to finance and CRM tools for AR visibility.
Local tables Coordinator-only tables that behave exactly like standard PostgreSQL tables. Warehouses Warehouse and facility records scope inventory and order data during mapping.
Schemas Standard Postgres namespaces used to scope what a sync user can read and write. Price Lists Pricing data keeps quoting tools consistent with the prices M3 will actually invoice.
Views Curated projections over distributed data, often used as read-only sync sources. Items Item master records provide the SKU, unit, and attribute data other systems price and sell against.
Sequences Key generators that matter when external writes must not collide with application inserts. Customers Customer master records sync with CRM account records to keep one shared customer file.
