Why teams connect Plex ERP and Quip

Bridge the tools people work in and the system the business runs on: real-time, two-way sync between Quip and Plex ERP.

The ERP holds the records the business is run on, and it is rarely where day-to-day work happens. Quip is closer to the work, and the two often need the same facts about the same people, organizations, and transactions. Bridging them by hand, or by nightly file transfer, leaves each side out of date for hours at a time.

Stacksync syncs Folders, Messages, Users, Blobs in Quip with Shipments, Quality records, Parts, Inventory in Plex ERP bi-directionally and in real time, with field-level mapping and rules for which system wins on conflict. Changes made where the work happens reach the system of record within seconds, and the reverse.

Common use cases

  • 01 Sync Folders and their membership with an identity or HR source so team spaces track org structure.
  • 02 Post a new_message into a linked Quip thread when a record changes in a CRM or ticketing system, notifying the account team where they plan.
  • 03 Keep customers, parts, and pricing aligned between Plex and the CRM the sales team uses.
  • 04 Push sales orders captured in e-commerce or EDI systems into Plex for scheduling and fulfillment.

Common sync patterns

Where Quip faces customers and Plex ERP carries account records

Order, invoice, or account status from Plex ERP appears alongside the customer in Quip, so front-line teams answer from live data.

Where Plex ERP is the HR or people system of record

Worker and organization data from Plex ERP stays current in Quip, so the tools people use daily reflect the org as it actually is.

Master data corrections travel

A customer, supplier, or contact detail corrected in either system updates the other, ending duplicate maintenance.

What you can sync between Plex ERP and Quip

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.

Plex ERP objects Quip objects How this pairing syncs
Inventory On-hand balances and locations replicated for visibility outside the plant system Blobs Images and file attachments stored per thread; downloaded with get_blob and uploaded with put_blob against a specific thread ID. Inventory is specific to Plex ERP and Blobs to Quip — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Production jobs Shop-floor work records combining ERP and MES data for output reporting Documents Editable rich-text threads addressed by ID; created and updated over REST via HTML or Markdown sections, with an updated_usec timestamp used to detect edits. Production jobs is specific to Plex ERP and Documents to Quip — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Sales orders Demand records written in from e-commerce or EDI channels and read out for fulfillment status Spreadsheets Live-spreadsheet threads; rows and cells are read and written through add_to_spreadsheet and update_spreadsheet_row helpers on the same thread endpoints. Sales orders is specific to Plex ERP and Spreadsheets to Quip — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Purchase orders Procurement records mirrored to accounting and planning systems Folders Private, Shared, and Group containers that organize threads; membership is added or removed via the folders endpoints for access control. Purchase orders is specific to Plex ERP and Folders to Quip — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Customers Account records kept consistent with the sales team's CRM Messages Comments and chat posts on a thread; the most recent are read with get_messages and new ones written with new_message. Customers is specific to Plex ERP and Messages to Quip — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Suppliers Vendor records aligned with procurement and AP tools Users Member records read individually or via contacts; get_authenticated_user identifies the token owner. Used read-only for directory-style syncs. Suppliers is specific to Plex ERP and Users to Quip — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Plex ERP and Quip

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.

Plex ERP Quip Interval-based propagation

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

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

Quip Plex ERP Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Quip for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling on thread updated_usec timestamps — get_recent_threads paginates by max_updated_usec.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Plex ERP: Subject to the platform's API rate limits.
  • Quip: Automation API allows roughly 50 requests per minute per access token; exceeding it returns HTTP 503, and responses carry X-RateLimit headers.
