Make the accepted scope visible
Keep the selected quantity break, part and drawing reference connected to the order so sales and operations can discuss the same commitment.
Metal fabrication and machining
Salesforce and Acumatica two-way sync for metal fabricators
Connect accepted fabrication quotes to ERP orders and return the job-readiness information sales needs. Stacksync fits teams that repeatedly copy customer, quote-revision and order-status details between Salesforce and Acumatica. Scope the first connection around a reviewed quote-to-order handoff, with explicit ownership for engineering, credit and production decisions.
Estimators and account managers keep asking whether the quote they sold is the same revision the shop is preparing to run.

When this fits
Built for this operating problem
Operations leaders, production planners and IT teams at US metal fabricators and machine shops with 100–1,000 employees.
Return readiness with its blockers
Show the accepted order state and unresolved conditions without treating a closed-won opportunity as production release.
Keep changes accountable
Route revised scope to its owner and preserve the accepted version. Exact ERP create and update operations are validated during scoping.
The process, end to end
Follow the work across systems
a fabricator serves repeat OEM customers but still checks each new PO against quantity breaks and drawing revisions manually. The buyer should ask to see one approved quote, one changed drawing and the operational status returned to sales before expanding the connection.
Scope your implementation
Bring these details to the demo
- A representative quote with multiple quantity breaks and an accepted customer PO.
- The approved customer, part and drawing references used by order management.
- Owners for requested dates, engineering approval and production release.
Review current platform pricing alongside the records, volume, and actions in your process. Use your own operating baseline to evaluate the economics.

Implementation guides for your team
- Metal fabrication: connect Salesforce quotes to Acumatica job-ready orders
A fabricator's Salesforce win should reach Acumatica as one order line carrying the chosen quantity break and drawing revision, with job readiness reported back separately.
- Machine shops: connect NetSuite and Postgres outside-processing status
Machine shops that track coating and plating batches in Postgres can keep NetSuite order context attached to each sent, returned and inspected quantity.
- Metal fabrication: link Dynamics order demand and material certificates in SQL Server
A material-evidence view tells planners which received heat each certificate covers and which order demand uses it, so a file on record never stands in for a quality decision.

Common evaluation questions
Who is this for?
Metal fabricators and machine shops with repeat order volume, Salesforce-based sales and an Acumatica order process that still needs manual reconciliation.
What happens when the customer PO picks a different quantity break than the one sales closed?
The order should not inherit whichever number appeared last. Two-way sync keeps the quantity the customer’s PO selected, the quote revision it came from and the price basis attached to the Acumatica handoff, and records the gap for estimating rather than choosing a value. Nobody prorates the quoted price on the shop’s behalf. Sales sees the open condition in Salesforce with its owner, and the order stays unreleased until estimating confirms the pricing and schedule effects.
How should value be assessed?
Compare handoff preparation time, status-checking effort and scope corrections after acceptance. Use the shop’s own baseline rather than assuming a standard savings percentage.
Which Stacksync product should a fabricator start with for the quote-to-order handoff?
Start with two-way sync between Salesforce and Acumatica so the accepted quote option, drawing revision and order line share one identity and readiness flows back to sales. Add workflows when a customer sends a new drawing against a released job and engineering, planning and the commercial owner need a routed decision. Genies come next, to assemble RFQ emails and drawings into an estimating packet before a quote exists. EDI is last, for customer PO lines and releases that must keep their drawing revision before they reach Acumatica.
