Why teams connect DEAR Inventory and MySQL

Give your engineers DEAR Inventory's data in MySQL: 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 Customers, Suppliers, Stock adjustments and transfers, Assemblies / Production from DEAR Inventory into MySQL 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 MySQL sync back into DEAR Inventory with its validations respected.

Common use cases

  • Keep e-commerce orders in MySQL flowing into finance and fulfillment systems without export scripts
  • Feed a warehouse from MySQL continuously using binlog-based capture instead of nightly dumps
  • 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.

React to ERP changes

Updates in DEAR Inventory arrive as row changes in MySQL, 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

Worker and org records stay current in MySQL for provisioning, access, and reporting systems that read from the database.

Controlled write-back

Choose exactly which tables and fields may flow from MySQL back into DEAR Inventory, keeping the ERP authoritative.

What you can sync between DEAR Inventory and MySQL

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.

DEAR Inventory objects MySQL objects
Assemblies / Production Bill-of-material and production records for light manufacturing workflows. Triggers An alternative change-capture mechanism when binlog access is unavailable.
Locations Warehouses and bins that scope stock levels and fulfillment. Databases (Schemas) Top-level namespaces that scope a sync's reads and writes.
Products SKU records with pricing, suppliers, and bill-of-material links; the master data most syncs start from. Tables The primary sync target; rows map to records in connected systems.
Stock levels Per-location availability derived from inventory transactions; read-heavy in storefront syncs. Views Read-side projections used as outbound sync sources.
Sale orders Customer orders through their pick/pack/ship lifecycle; synced with storefronts and CRMs. Columns Field-level mapping targets with engine-typed values.
Purchase orders Supplier orders and receiving records synced with accounting and planning tools. Primary and Unique Keys Match keys for idempotent upserts and conflict handling.
