Why teams connect Namely and QAD ERP

Sync the workers, org structure, and cost centers that QAD ERP and Namely share in real time, so the people Namely manages stay current in the system that runs finance and operations.

Namely is the system of record for people: who was hired, which department and location they sit in, who they report to, and how they are paid. QAD ERP runs finance and operations, and much of what it does depends on that same information, from booking labor cost to approving an expense report to staffing a project. Where the two are bridged by re-keying or an overnight file, each side spends the day out of step, with new hires missing from the systems they need and leavers still active where they should not be.

Stacksync syncs Suppliers, Sales orders, Purchase orders, Work orders in QAD ERP with Teams, Reports, Profile Fields, Events in Namely field by field, in real time, and in both directions. You decide which system owns which fields, so the people side stays authoritative for worker data while QAD ERP keeps its own accounting and operational detail, and every change made in one is reflected in the other within seconds instead of at the next batch run.

Common use cases

  • 01 Consolidate data from multiple QAD instances, per plant or region, into one reporting database.
  • 02 Sync items, customers, and orders between QAD and a CRM so sales teams work outside ERP screens.
  • 03 Provision or deprovision accounts in an IdP or directory when a Profile's user_status or start_date changes, and write the resulting user ID and email back onto the Profile.
  • 04 Map Job Titles and Job Tiers into a warehouse dimension table so leveling and seniority stay consistent across HR, finance, and BI reporting.

Common sync patterns

New hires ready to transact in QAD ERP

A new person set up in Namely becomes an employee record in QAD ERP in time to submit expenses, enter time, or approve a purchase, without waiting on manual setup.

One org structure

Departments, cost centers, and locations that both systems reference stay in agreement, so labor cost, approvals, and reporting in QAD ERP roll up to the same structure Namely maintains.

Reporting lines drive approvals

Manager and reporting-hierarchy changes in Namely keep expense and purchase approval chains in QAD ERP pointed at the right people.

What you can sync between Namely 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.

Namely objects QAD ERP objects How this pairing syncs
Events Home-feed items such as announcements, birthdays, anniversaries, and new arrivals; typically read-only into comms tools. Sales orders Demand records written in from EDI or e-commerce and read out for status Events is specific to Namely and Sales orders to QAD ERP — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Profiles The core employee record (personal, job, contact, and compensation fields); synced two-way via GET/POST/PUT with updated_at driving incremental polling. Purchase orders Procurement documents mirrored to planning and finance systems Profiles is specific to Namely and Purchase orders to QAD ERP — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Job Titles Job title definitions; read and written so titles stay aligned with an HRIS, directory, or reporting dimension. Work orders Production records replicated for scheduling and shop-floor analytics Job Titles is specific to Namely and Work orders to QAD ERP — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Job Tiers Leveling hierarchy grouping zero-to-many Job Titles; read to map seniority into warehouse dimension tables. Inventory balances Stock levels by site and location, synced for multi-plant visibility Job Tiers is specific to Namely and Inventory balances to QAD ERP — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Groups Departments and locations that organize Profiles; synced to keep org structure aligned with a warehouse or IdP. General ledger transactions Financial postings exported for consolidated reporting Groups is specific to Namely and General ledger transactions to QAD ERP — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Teams Teams and team categories a Profile belongs to; read and written for org-chart and provisioning workflows. Items Item master records shared with CRM, e-commerce, and planning systems Teams is specific to Namely and Items to QAD ERP — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Namely 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.

DetectionStacksync polls Namely for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. No webhooks.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Namely: Namely's public docs do not publish a fixed request quota; the REST API returns standard HTTP status codes, so integrations should throttle and back off on 429/5xx responses.
  • QAD ERP: Subject to instance capacity and the platform's API limits.

How the Namely and QAD ERP connectors work

Namely

REST API (JSON over HTTPS)
Authentication
OAuth 2.0 authorization-code grant, or a personal access token sent as a Bearer token; all calls run over HTTPS against https://{subdomain}.namely.com/api/v1
Change detection
No webhooks; integrations poll GET endpoints and compare the updated_at / created_at timestamps on Profiles and related objects to detect changes
