Why teams connect DEAR Inventory and IBM Db2

Give your engineers DEAR Inventory's data in IBM Db2: read it with normal queries, write back through the sync, and skip the ERP API entirely.

ERP data sits behind interfaces built for the ERP's own modules, not for your internal systems. Teams that need those records, for reporting services, internal tools, or automations, end up writing integration code against a strict API and maintaining it through every upgrade.

Stacksync mirrors Purchase orders, Customers, Suppliers, Stock adjustments and transfers from DEAR Inventory into IBM Db2 and keeps both sides consistent in real time. Whatever DEAR Inventory is the system of record for, whether financials, operations, people, or procurement, those records become rows your code can query, and changes written in IBM Db2 sync back into DEAR Inventory with its validations respected.

Common use cases

  • Feed changes captured from Db2 logs into downstream event pipelines.
  • Expose Db2 records that back core business systems to a CRM so sales and support see order or account state.
  • Push sale orders from a storefront or CRM into DEAR for fulfillment without manual re-entry.
  • Land orders, costs, and inventory movements in a warehouse for margin and stock-turn reporting.

React to ERP changes

Updates in DEAR Inventory arrive as row changes in IBM Db2, so jobs and triggers can respond as the business record changes.

Where DEAR Inventory is the HR system of record: people data for internal systems
