Why teams connect Orderful and Recurly

Connect the financial records in Recurly with the work happening in Orderful, so both stay current without exports or copy-paste.

Recurly holds the financial truth: who the customers are, what they were billed, what they paid. Orderful is where part of the day-to-day work happens, and that work often involves the same customers and transactions. Without a live connection, the two drift apart, and people end up answering questions from stale copies.

Stacksync keeps Line Items, Coupons and Redemptions, Billing Info, Measured Units and Usage in Recurly and Trading partners, Relationships, Validation guidelines, Acknowledgments in Orderful in sync, bi-directionally and in real time. Whatever records Orderful keeps and whatever events it produces, the overlap with Recurly is mapped field by field, and a change on either side shows up on the other within seconds.

There is no middleware to build, no API rate limits to babysit, and no nightly job that leaves the morning running on yesterday's data.

Common use cases

  • 01 Post usage records to Measured Units on metered Subscriptions from a metering database before each bill run.
  • 02 Sync Accounts and Subscriptions bi-directionally with Postgres so product and provisioning systems read live entitlement state and write plan or seat changes back to Recurly.
  • 03 Reconcile 810 invoices against ERP billing records automatically as documents arrive.
  • 04 Sync inbound purchase orders from Orderful into an ERP or Postgres so fulfillment starts without manual EDI handling.

Common sync patterns

Where Orderful handles customer conversations: billing context in view

Front-line teams see invoice and payment status from Recurly next to the customer they are helping, without logging into the finance system.

Where Orderful collects payments or triggers charges: events land in Recurly

Payment and charge activity flows into Recurly as it happens, so the books reflect reality without manual reconciliation.

Where Orderful tracks people or companies: one identity

A customer's details updated in either system update the other, so finance and the rest of the business stop maintaining two versions of the same customer.

What you can sync between Orderful and Recurly

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.

Orderful objects Recurly objects How this pairing syncs
Transactions EDI documents such as 850 purchase orders, 810 invoices, and 856 ship notices, represented as JSON Transactions Individual payment attempts — captures, refunds, and voids; typically read into a warehouse for reconciliation and dunning analysis. Same entity on both sides — records pair one-to-one and field-level changes reconcile in both directions.
Relationships Active partner connections per transaction type that govern what can be sent and received Plans The product and pricing catalog (plan codes, intervals, add-ons); usually mastered in Recurly and read out, or mirrored from a product database. Relationships is specific to Orderful and Plans to Recurly — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Validation guidelines Partner-specific rules transactions are checked against before delivery Invoices Charge and credit billing documents; read-heavy for revenue reporting, and creatable through Purchases for one-off charges. Validation guidelines is specific to Orderful and Invoices to Recurly — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Acknowledgments 997 functional acknowledgments confirming receipt of transmitted documents Line Items One-time charges and credits on an account outside a subscription; synced for accurate revenue and adjustment reporting. Acknowledgments is specific to Orderful and Line Items to Recurly — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Webhook events Push notifications for inbound documents and transaction status changes Coupons and Redemptions Discount definitions and their application to accounts and subscriptions; read for discount and promotion analysis. Webhook events is specific to Orderful and Coupons and Redemptions to Recurly — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Trading partners The retailers, carriers, and suppliers a company exchanges documents with Billing Info Tokenized payment method (card/ACH) on an account; written when onboarding customers and read for payment-health signals (never stores raw card numbers). Trading partners is specific to Orderful and Billing Info to Recurly — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Orderful and Recurly

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.

Orderful Recurly Sub-second propagation

DetectionOrderful notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhooks push inbound transactions and status events.

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

Recurly Orderful Sub-second propagation

DetectionRecurly notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhooks (JSON or XML, one format per endpoint) for account, subscription, payment, and invoice events, plus incremental polling of list endpoints.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Orderful: Subject to the platform's API rate limits.
  • Recurly: Production sites default to 1,000 requests/min with only GET requests counting toward the limit; sandbox sites 400/min with all requests counting; the limit is a sliding 5-minute window, X-RateLimit headers report the quota, and breaches return HTTP 429.
