Why teams connect ConnectWise and IBM AS/400

Mirror ConnectWise's data into IBM AS/400 so your own code can read and write it like any other table, with changes flowing both ways in seconds.

Engineers integrate with tools like ConnectWise through APIs, which means auth, pagination, rate limits, webhooks, and retry logic, all maintained forever and all different for every tool. Meanwhile the data would be trivial to use if it simply lived in IBM AS/400.

Stacksync mirrors Configurations, Members, Activities, Companies from ConnectWise into Data queues, Libraries, Physical files (tables), Logical files (views) in IBM AS/400 and keeps both sides in sync in real time. Your services query the database directly, and inserts or updates your code makes flow back into ConnectWise, so the tool and the database never disagree.

Common use cases

  • Push closed-won opportunities from the CRM into ConnectWise to kick off agreements and onboarding projects.
  • Reconcile ConnectWise invoices and agreements against the accounting system to catch billing gaps.
  • Expose AS/400 order, inventory, and item master data to modern SaaS tools without rewriting green-screen applications.
  • Use journal-based change capture to replicate IBM i data into a cloud warehouse for reporting.

React to changes as they happen

Updates in ConnectWise arrive as row changes in IBM AS/400, so triggers, jobs, and services can respond in near real time.

One integration pattern for the whole stack

Every synced tool looks the same from the database, so each new integration is configuration, not a new codebase.

Read ConnectWise with a query

Records from ConnectWise are ordinary rows in IBM AS/400; join them, index them, and use them in application logic without touching the vendor API.

What you can sync between ConnectWise and IBM AS/400

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.

ConnectWise objects IBM AS/400 objects
Agreements Recurring contracts and managed-service agreements used for billing reconciliation. Logical files (views) Indexed or filtered views over physical files, usable as read sources.
Projects Project and phase records synced for delivery tracking outside the PSA. Members Sub-partitions of files in legacy applications, flattened or selected during syncs.
Time Entries Logged technician time, often exported for payroll and invoicing checks. Rows / records The unit of read and write, accessed via SQL or record-level access.
Invoices Billing records reconciled against accounting systems. Journals and journal receivers The change log that enables log-based CDC on journaled files.
Configurations Managed devices and assets tied to companies, useful for asset inventory syncs. Data queues Program-to-program messaging objects sometimes used to hand events off to integrations.
Members Internal users and technicians referenced by tickets and time entries. Libraries The schema-equivalent containers that scope which files a sync reads.
