Why teams connect DEAR Inventory and Recurly

Keep Recurly and DEAR Inventory 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 Line Items, Coupons and Redemptions, Billing Info, Measured Units and Usage in Recurly with Sale orders, Purchase orders, Customers, Suppliers in DEAR Inventory 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 Post usage records to Measured Units on metered Subscriptions from a metering database before each bill run.
  • 02 Sync Accounts and Subscriptions bi-directionally with Postgres so product and provisioning systems read live entitlement state and write plan or seat changes back to Recurly.
  • 03 Keep supplier and purchase order data aligned with the accounting system for accrual accuracy.
  • 04 Sync stock levels and product data to e-commerce storefronts and a CRM so sales quotes reflect real availability.

Common sync patterns

Migration without a hard cutover

When one system is replacing the other, run both in parallel with records matching until the switch is complete.

One customer and vendor master

Where both systems keep records of the same organizations, corrections made in either propagate to the other.

Subsidiary to headquarters

Where Recurly serves a business unit and DEAR Inventory is the group system, transactions and customer records roll up continuously, so consolidation starts from live data.

How changes propagate between DEAR Inventory and Recurly

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 Recurly Sub-second propagation

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

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

Recurly DEAR Inventory Sub-second propagation

  • DEAR Inventory: Subject to the platform's per-account API rate limits.
  • Recurly: Production sites default to 1,000 requests/min with only GET requests counting toward the limit; sandbox sites 400/min with all requests counting; the limit is a sliding 5-minute window, X-RateLimit headers report the quota, and breaches return HTTP 429.
