Why teams connect DEAR Inventory and MotherDuck

Put DEAR Inventory's records in MotherDuck as live tables for reporting and analysis, without extract jobs, and write results back where DEAR Inventory can use them.

ERP data is some of the most asked-for data in the warehouse and some of the hardest to get: the record types are many, the APIs are strict, and extract jobs are brittle. Whether DEAR Inventory carries financials, operations, workforce data, or all three, the analysis belongs in MotherDuck next to everything else the company measures.

Stacksync syncs Assemblies / Production, Locations, Products, Stock levels from DEAR Inventory into tables in MotherDuck continuously, managing API limits and schema drift along the way. The connection is bi-directional, so values computed in MotherDuck can be written back to fields in DEAR Inventory where that is useful.

Common use cases

  • Sync modeled MotherDuck tables outward to operational tools for activation
  • Share curated, synced datasets with other teams through read-only database shares
  • Keep supplier and purchase order data aligned with the accounting system for accrual accuracy.
  • Sync stock levels and product data to e-commerce storefronts and a CRM so sales quotes reflect real availability.
