Why teams connect Demandbase and Infor M3

Feed the real customer, order, and revenue records from Infor M3 into Demandbase so campaigns run on who actually bought what, and let contact and consent changes flow back in real time.

Marketing runs on lists of people, but the list rarely knows which of those people are paying customers, what they ordered, or what they are worth. Infor M3 holds exactly that: Manufacturing Orders, Inventory Balances, Invoices, Warehouses that record who the customer is, what they bought, and what they owe. When the two are joined only by a periodic export, campaigns go out against stale audiences, existing customers get prospecting emails, high-value accounts look the same as cold leads, and a canceled order still counts toward a segment.

Stacksync syncs Manufacturing Orders, Inventory Balances, Invoices, Warehouses in Infor M3 with Accounts, Opportunities, People (Persons), Activities in Demandbase in real time, and where both sides accept writes, in both directions. Customer, order, and invoice data maps field by field onto the contacts, audiences, or accounts Demandbase works with, so segmentation and personalization run on current purchase history instead of a month-old snapshot. Contact details and consent changes that originate in Demandbase flow back onto the record in Infor M3.

The strongest bridge between the two is identity and purchase history, who the customer is and what they have bought, so that is where most of the value sits. Because the sync is field-level, each system keeps the attributes the other has no use for; only the shared records are held in agreement.

Common use cases

  • 01 Keep supplier and purchase order data aligned between M3 and procurement tools
  • 02 Consolidate M3 transactional data into an analytics database for cross-plant reporting
  • 03 Push warehouse-computed account scores, custom fields, and audiences into Demandbase via the Data Import API so ABM campaigns and sales plays target the segments the warehouse defines.
  • 04 Enrich CRM Company and Contact records with Demandbase firmographics, technographics, and verified business emails through the B2B Company and Contact Details endpoints.

Common sync patterns

One customer identity across both systems

A person or company's contact details corrected in either system update the other, so marketing and the back office stop maintaining separate versions of the same record.

Lifecycle triggers from back-office events

A first order, a renewal, or a lapsed account recorded in Infor M3 appears in Demandbase within seconds, ready to start or stop a lifecycle campaign.

Where Demandbase captures new people: signups become customer records

Registrations, form fills, or new subscribers in Demandbase create or update the corresponding record in Infor M3, so the back office sees them without anyone re-keying.
