Why teams connect DEAR Inventory and Magento

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

Magento 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 Invoices, Shipments, Carts / quotes, Products in Magento 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 Magento — and Stacksync keeps every copy consistent and resolves conflicts by rules you set.

Common use cases

  • 01 Keep MSI inventory source-item quantities aligned between a WMS/ERP and Magento so storefront stock matches the warehouse.
  • 02 Read new Orders to trigger provisioning, accounting, or 3PL fulfillment in an operational database as they are placed.
  • 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 product catalog

Where both systems keep item records, SKUs, descriptions, and attributes stay aligned so the store and the back office describe the same product.

Fulfillment and shipment status close the loop

As orders are picked, shipped, or invoiced in DEAR Inventory, tracking and status flow back to Magento so buyers see accurate updates.

One customer master

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

What you can sync between DEAR Inventory and Magento

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.

DEAR Inventory objects Magento objects How this pairing syncs
Products SKU records with pricing, suppliers, and bill-of-material links; the master data most syncs start from. Products Catalog items keyed by SKU; carry created_at/updated_at for incremental polling and are written two-way from a PIM or ERP into the storefront. Same entity on both sides — records pair one-to-one and field-level changes reconcile in both directions.
Customers Buyer records aligned with CRM and accounting counterparts. Customers Customer accounts and address book; synced two-way with a CRM so order history and contact records stay consistent. Same entity on both sides — records pair one-to-one and field-level changes reconcile in both directions. Custom fields on either side are included in the mapping.
Locations Warehouses and bins that scope stock levels and fulfillment. Inventory source items (MSI) Per-source stock quantities under Multi-Source Inventory; written from a WMS/ERP so storefront stock matches the warehouse. Locations is specific to DEAR Inventory and Inventory source items (MSI) to Magento — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Stock levels Per-location availability derived from inventory transactions; read-heavy in storefront syncs. Invoices Invoice documents tied to orders; read out for finance and revenue recognition, or created via the sales API when billing downstream. Stock levels is specific to DEAR Inventory and Invoices to Magento — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Sale orders Customer orders through their pick/pack/ship lifecycle; synced with storefronts and CRMs. Shipments Shipment and tracking records against orders; created or read to drive fulfillment status between Magento and a 3PL/WMS. Sale orders is specific to DEAR Inventory and Shipments to Magento — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Purchase orders Supplier orders and receiving records synced with accounting and planning tools. Carts / quotes Active and guest carts (quotes) with items and totals; read for abandoned-cart analysis (not available on the Cloud Service subset). Purchase orders is specific to DEAR Inventory and Carts / quotes to Magento — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between DEAR Inventory and Magento

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.

DEAR Inventory Magento Sub-second propagation

DetectionDEAR Inventory notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Polling with modified-since filters.

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

Magento DEAR Inventory Sub-second propagation

DetectionMagento notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Polling with searchCriteria filters on updated_at (catalog, sales, and customer entities carry created_at/updated_at).

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • DEAR Inventory: Subject to the platform's per-account API rate limits.
  • Magento: No fixed request-per-minute cap on PaaS/on-prem; responses page via searchCriteria pageSize/currentPage under a default maximum page size of 300 (Web API Input Limits), with /async/bulk endpoints for large writes.
