Why teams connect Close and QAD ERP

Close the gap between front office and back office: Close and QAD ERP share customers and status in real time, in both directions.

Close holds the customer relationship; QAD ERP runs the operations and records behind the business. The two overlap wherever the same organizations and transactions matter to both, and when that overlap is bridged by re-keying or overnight batch, each side spends the day working from stale data.

Stacksync syncs Opportunities, Activities, Tasks, Custom Activities in Close with Suppliers, Sales orders, Purchase orders, Work orders in QAD ERP field by field, in real time, and in both directions. You decide which system owns which fields; Stacksync keeps every copy consistent and resolves conflicts by rules you set.

Common use cases

  • Two-way sync between Close and a billing or ERP system so closed-won opportunities create customers and invoices automatically.
  • Keep Close contacts aligned with a marketing automation platform so outreach lists stay current.
  • Sync items, customers, and orders between QAD and a CRM so sales teams work outside ERP screens.
  • Replicate inventory and work-order data into a warehouse for supply chain analytics across plants.

Where QAD ERP is the finance system of record: money status on the account

Invoice and payment state from QAD ERP shows on the account in Close, so reps see balances before promising the next order.

One customer master

Where both systems keep customer or organization records, corrections in either propagate to the other, ending dual maintenance.

Where QAD ERP manages people and org data: keep Close aligned

Owners, territories, and org structure informed by QAD ERP stay current in Close.
