Why teams connect Infor WMS and Microsoft Power Bi

Put Infor WMS's records into Microsoft Power Bi as live data for reporting and dashboards, without nightly exports, and send the segments and metrics Microsoft Power Bi computes back where Infor WMS can use them.

Microsoft Power Bi is a read-only source: Stacksync reads its data in real time and delivers it into Infor WMS, so Infor WMS always reflects the current state of Microsoft Power Bi — without exports, scripts, or schedulers.

ERP data is some of the most requested data for analysis and some of the hardest to pull: the record types are many, the APIs are strict, and export jobs break on every upgrade. Whether Infor WMS carries financials, operations, workforce data, or all three, those numbers belong in Microsoft Power Bi, next to the product, behavioral, and web data the team already measures.

Common use cases

  • 01 Load dataset Refresh History into an operational database to alert on-call teams when scheduled refreshes fail or run long.
  • 02 Sync admin Activity Events into a warehouse for tenant-wide security, access, and usage reporting.
  • 03 Push sales orders from an ERP into the WMS for wave planning and picking, then return status updates
  • 04 Send shipment confirmations and tracking numbers back to the order system when the WMS ships

Common sync patterns

Where Infor WMS runs operations: inventory and fulfillment metrics

Operational records from Infor WMS become measurable in Microsoft Power Bi, joinable with the rest of what the company tracks for supply and fulfillment reporting.

Where Infor WMS is the HR system of record: workforce and cost analysis

Worker and organization data from Infor WMS syncs into Microsoft Power Bi for headcount, cost, and utilization reporting alongside other company data.

Write-back where Infor WMS exposes writable fields: segments and scores return

Segments, scores, or metrics computed in Microsoft Power Bi sync onto the matching records in Infor WMS, so operations act on what the analysis found.

What you can sync between Infor WMS and Microsoft Power Bi

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.

Infor WMS objects Microsoft Power Bi objects How this pairing syncs
Appointments Dock appointment data coordinates carriers and yard operations with external schedules. Users and Access Workspace users and roles read via GET /groups/{id}/users or the admin scanner APIs; read for access reviews and identity reconciliation against an IdP. Appointments is specific to Infor WMS and Users and Access to Microsoft Power Bi — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Items Item definitions keep the WMS aligned with the ERP or OMS item master. Datasets (Semantic Models) Tabular models behind reports; their rows are read with DAX via POST datasets/{id}/executeQueries, and datasource and refresh metadata via REST list endpoints. Items is specific to Infor WMS and Datasets (Semantic Models) to Microsoft Power Bi — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Inventory On-hand quantities by location feed available-to-promise in order-taking systems. Reports Report definitions and metadata read via GET /reports and per-workspace GET /groups/{id}/reports; enumerated to mirror the content inventory into a catalog. Inventory is specific to Infor WMS and Reports to Microsoft Power Bi — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Receipts / ASNs Advance shipment notices and receipt confirmations sync with procurement systems. Dashboards and Tiles Dashboards and their pinned tiles read via GET /dashboards and /dashboards/{id}/tiles; inventoried to map dashboard content back to its source datasets. Receipts / ASNs is specific to Infor WMS and Dashboards and Tiles to Microsoft Power Bi — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Shipment Orders Outbound orders arrive from the ERP or OMS for allocation and picking. Dataflows Power Query ETL definitions read via GET /groups/{id}/dataflows; used to document lineage from upstream sources into datasets. Shipment Orders is specific to Infor WMS and Dataflows to Microsoft Power Bi — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Waves Wave assignments group orders for fulfillment and can be reported outward. Datasources and Gateways The connections behind datasets and dataflows and the on-premises gateways serving them, read via REST for lineage and dependency mapping. Waves is specific to Infor WMS and Datasources and Gateways to Microsoft Power Bi — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Infor WMS and Microsoft Power Bi

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.

Infor WMS Microsoft Power Bi Sub-second propagation

DetectionInfor WMS notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. ION event publishing or scheduled polling of API endpoints.

DeliveryMicrosoft Power Bi does not accept inbound record writes, so this direction carries requests rather than records: Microsoft Power Bi's output flows back as field updates on the originating Infor WMS records.

Microsoft Power Bi Infor WMS Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Microsoft Power Bi for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Pull-based: no webhooks or change-data-capture.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Infor WMS: Subject to Infor ION API gateway throttling policies.
  • Microsoft Power Bi: Endpoints throttle per user and per app and return HTTP 429 with a Retry-After header. Execute Queries allows up to 120 requests per minute per user and caps a query at 100,000 rows (or 1,000,000 values) and 15 MB; admin scanner metadata APIs are limited to about 500 requests per hour with 16 concurrent.
