Why teams connect Infor M3 and QAD ERP

Two ERPs, one set of facts: Stacksync keeps Infor M3 and QAD ERP consistent in real time, whether they split the business or one is replacing the other.

Companies run two ERPs for structural reasons: a two-tier setup with subsidiaries on lighter systems, an acquisition that brought its own stack, a split by function or region, or a migration that will take quarters. In all of these, some of the same organizations, people, and transactions exist in both systems, and keeping them aligned by hand is a standing tax on the back office.

Stacksync syncs Price Lists, Items, Customers, Suppliers in Infor M3 with Purchase orders, Work orders, Inventory balances, General ledger transactions in QAD ERP bi-directionally and in real time, with field-level mapping across the two data models and conflict rules you define. A record changed in either system is reflected in the other within seconds, not at the next interface run.

Common use cases

  • Push orders captured in a CRM into M3 as customer orders without manual re-entry
  • Mirror M3 customers and invoices into a CRM or warehouse so sales and finance share one AR view
  • Consolidate data from multiple QAD instances, per plant or region, into one reporting database.
  • Sync items, customers, and orders between QAD and a CRM so sales teams work outside ERP screens.

Shared master data

Where both systems keep records of the same customers, suppliers, or organizations, a correction in either updates the other.

Split by function

Where one system is the people or finance suite and the other runs operations, the records both sides depend on, such as organizations, cost centers, and reference data, stay in agreement.

Two-tier roll-up

Where subsidiaries run one system and headquarters runs the other, shared records and transactions flow up continuously, so consolidation starts from live data.
