Why teams connect DEAR Inventory and TiDB

Give your engineers DEAR Inventory's data in TiDB: 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 Products, Stock levels, Sale orders, Purchase orders from DEAR Inventory into TiDB 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 TiDB sync back into DEAR Inventory with its validations respected.

Common use cases

  • Serve mixed transactional and analytical workloads on synced data using TiFlash columnar replicas
  • Two-way sync between TiDB tables and SaaS tools so operational edits made in either system converge
  • 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 TiDB, 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
