Why teams connect Egnyte and QAD ERP

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

QAD ERP runs the business on structured records: Items, Customers, Suppliers, Sales orders. 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 QAD 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 QAD 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 Items, Customers, Suppliers, Sales orders in QAD 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 QAD 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 QAD ERP and the file in Egnyte never describe two different versions of the same document.

Common use cases

  • 01 Replicate inventory and work-order data into a warehouse for supply chain analytics across plants.
  • 02 Push EDI orders from trading partners into QAD as sales orders.
  • 03 Mirror folder Permissions from a directory or access-management system so entitlements stay consistent across teams.
  • 04 Stream Egnyte audit Events (file, login, permission, and Link changes) into a warehouse or SIEM for compliance and governance reporting.

Common sync patterns

Audit-ready retention

Every transaction's supporting file lives in Egnyte beside its metadata, giving finance and audit teams a complete, searchable trail tied back to the record in QAD ERP.

Documents filed with their context

Files that QAD ERP produces land in Egnyte labeled with the customer, document type, and reference number they belong to, so the right copy is one search away instead of buried in a folder.

Metadata that files itself

Record fields from QAD 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.

What you can sync between Egnyte and QAD 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 QAD 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. Inventory balances Stock levels by site and location, synced for multi-plant visibility Links is specific to Egnyte and Inventory balances to QAD 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. General ledger transactions Financial postings exported for consolidated reporting Metadata is specific to Egnyte and General ledger transactions to QAD 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. Items Item master records shared with CRM, e-commerce, and planning systems Events and Audit reports is specific to Egnyte and Items to QAD 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. Customers Account records kept consistent with the sales team's CRM Files is specific to Egnyte and Customers to QAD 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. Suppliers Vendor master data aligned with procurement and AP automation tools Folders is specific to Egnyte and Suppliers to QAD 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. Sales orders Demand records written in from EDI or e-commerce and read out for status Users is specific to Egnyte and Sales orders to QAD ERP — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Egnyte and QAD 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 QAD 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 QAD ERP through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

QAD ERP Egnyte Interval-based propagation

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

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.
  • QAD ERP: Subject to instance capacity and the platform's API limits.
