Why teams connect DEAR Inventory and QAD ERP
Two ERPs, one set of facts: Stacksync keeps DEAR Inventory and QAD ERP consistent in real time, whether they split the business or one is replacing the other.
Companies run two ERPs for structural reasons: a two-tier setup with subsidiaries on lighter systems, an acquisition that brought its own stack, a split by function or region, or a migration that will take quarters. In all of these, some of the same organizations, people, and transactions exist in both systems, and keeping them aligned by hand is a standing tax on the back office.
Stacksync syncs Products, Stock levels, Sale orders, Purchase orders in DEAR Inventory with Suppliers, Sales orders, Purchase orders, Work orders in QAD ERP bi-directionally and in real time, with field-level mapping across the two data models and conflict rules you define. A record changed in either system is reflected in the other within seconds, not at the next interface run.
Common use cases
- 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.
- Keep supplier and purchase-order records aligned with procurement or AP automation tools.
- Consolidate data from multiple QAD instances, per plant or region, into one reporting database.
Migration in parallel
When one system is replacing the other, run both fully live during the transition and cut over without a data freeze.
Shared master data
Where both systems keep records of the same customers, suppliers, or organizations, a correction in either updates the other.
Split by function
Where one system is the people or finance suite and the other runs operations, the records both sides depend on, such as organizations, cost centers, and reference data, stay in agreement.
What you can sync between DEAR Inventory and QAD ERP
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.
