Why teams connect Egnyte and Plex ERP

Move the documents and data that Plex ERP produces into Egnyte as files, and let files stored in Egnyte update the records they belong to in Plex ERP, continuously and without exports or manual filing.

Plex ERP runs the business on structured records: Purchase orders, Customers, Suppliers, Shipments. Egnyte holds files and the metadata that describes them: Links, Metadata, Events and Audit reports, Files. The two do not share a customer table or an order ledger. What they share is documents. Nearly every record Plex ERP touches produces a file that belongs in storage, whether an invoice, a purchase order, a statement, or a shipping doc, and many files that land in Egnyte, from signed contracts to vendor bills to receipts, describe a transaction Plex ERP needs to record. Left unconnected, that link is maintained by hand: someone exports a PDF and drags it into a folder, or downloads a file and keys its details into a record.

Stacksync keeps Purchase orders, Customers, Suppliers, Shipments in Plex ERP and Links, Metadata, Events and Audit reports, Files in Egnyte in sync, bi-directionally and in real time. A document and its details, the customer, the type, the date, an amount, an order or invoice number, are mapped field by field, so a file arrives in Egnyte already labeled and filed, and metadata captured against a stored file can create or update the matching record in Plex ERP. Changes on either side show up within seconds, with conflict resolution in place of nightly exports and manual filing.

The result is that a transaction and the document that backs it stay together. Finance, operations, and audit teams find the file behind a record without digging through folders, and the record in Plex ERP and the file in Egnyte never describe two different versions of the same document.

Common use cases

  • 01 Mirror purchase orders and receipts to accounting or planning tools.
  • 02 Feed quality and scrap data to dashboards supervisors check without logging into Plex.
  • 03 Two-way sync of Files and Folders between Egnyte and an operational database or another content store, keeping the folder hierarchy aligned.
  • 04 Write custom Metadata such as classification tags and project fields onto Files and Folders from a governance or DMS system, and read it back for reporting.

Common sync patterns

Metadata that files itself

Record fields from Plex ERP, like customer, date, amount, type, and reference number, become the metadata and tags on the stored file in Egnyte, so storage stays organized without anyone tagging by hand.

Where Egnyte captures inbound files: details reach the record

A contract, vendor bill, or receipt added to Egnyte with its details can create or update the matching record in Plex ERP, so a document captured outside the finance system still reaches the books.

An archive that stays current

As records change in Plex ERP, the corresponding files and metadata in Egnyte are kept in step, so a stored document reflects the latest version rather than a stale one-time export.

What you can sync between Egnyte and Plex ERP

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.

Egnyte objects Plex ERP objects How this pairing syncs
Links Shared file and folder links created, listed, and revoked via the Links API; useful for governing and auditing external sharing. Suppliers Vendor records aligned with procurement and AP tools Links is specific to Egnyte and Suppliers to Plex ERP — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Metadata Custom metadata keys and project fields on files/folders via the Metadata API; written for classification and read back for reporting. Shipments Outbound logistics records synced to trading partners and tracking systems Metadata is specific to Egnyte and Shipments to Plex ERP — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Events and Audit reports File, login, permission, and sharing activity read via the Events API and Audit Reporting API; consumed read-only for compliance. Quality records Checksheet and inspection data pulled into plant dashboards Events and Audit reports is specific to Egnyte and Quality records to Plex ERP — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Files File content managed via the fs-content endpoint (upload/download, chunked for large files); synced two-way with other stores. Parts Item master records shared with CRM, e-commerce, and planning tools Files is specific to Egnyte and Parts to Plex ERP — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Folders Folder hierarchy managed via the fs endpoint (create, move, rename, delete); the tree structure is mirrored during sync. Inventory On-hand balances and locations replicated for visibility outside the plant system Folders is specific to Egnyte and Inventory to Plex ERP — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Users Accounts managed via the Users API; provisioned, updated, and deactivated in sync with an HRIS or identity provider. Production jobs Shop-floor work records combining ERP and MES data for output reporting Users is specific to Egnyte and Production jobs to Plex ERP — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Egnyte and Plex ERP

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.

Egnyte Plex ERP Sub-second propagation

DetectionEgnyte notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Events API polled with an incremental cursor (Egnyte recommends an interval of 5 minutes or more), or Webhooks push notifications for fs, metadata,.

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

Plex ERP Egnyte Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Plex ERP for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Egnyte: Auto-generated keys default to 2 requests/second and 1,000 requests/day, enforced per access token; monitor X-Accesstoken-Qps-Current/Allotted and X-Accesstoken-Quota-Current headers; higher limits on request.
  • Plex ERP: Subject to the platform's API rate limits.
