Why teams connect DEAR Inventory and Zuora
Keep Zuora 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 Rate Plan and Rate Plan Charge, Product and Product Rate Plan (Product Catalog), Invoice, Payment in Zuora with Customers, Suppliers, Stock adjustments and transfers, Assemblies / Production 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 Stream metered Usage records from a warehouse or metering pipeline into Zuora so consumption-based charges are rated on the correct Rate Plan.
- 02 Two-way sync of Accounts and Subscriptions with an operational Postgres database so product and finance teams read billing state in SQL while changes flow back into Zuora.
- 03 Land orders, costs, and inventory movements in a warehouse for margin and stock-turn reporting.
- 04 Keep supplier and purchase order data aligned with the accounting system for accrual accuracy.
Common sync patterns
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 Zuora serves a business unit and DEAR Inventory is the group system, transactions and customer records roll up continuously, so consolidation starts from live data.
Where Zuora handles billing: invoices land in DEAR Inventory
Invoices and payment activity from the billing side post through to the enterprise system automatically.

FAQ
DEAR Inventory and Zuora integration FAQ
-
Yes. Stacksync provides a managed, real-time two-way integration between DEAR Inventory and Zuora: authenticate both systems, choose the objects to sync (such as DEAR Inventory's Assemblies / Production and Locations), map fields visually, and changes propagate both ways in milliseconds — no code required.
-
Yes. Each object mapping can be bidirectional or restricted to a single direction (both systems accept writes). Read-only mirrors, one-way pushes, and full two-way sync can be mixed in the same integration.

Zuora: Incremental data relies on the indexed UpdatedDate column; AQuA stateful mode tracks a session high-water mark so subsequent calls return only created, updated, or deleted records. DEAR Inventory: DEAR Systems was acquired by Cin7 and the product now operates as Cin7 Core; the API and data model carried over from DEAR. Stacksync's field mapping accounts for these differences between DEAR Inventory and Zuora without custom code.
