Why teams connect Fishbowl Manufacturing and Slack

Bridge the tools people work in and the system the business runs on: real-time, two-way sync between Slack and Fishbowl Manufacturing.

The ERP holds the records the business is run on, and it is rarely where day-to-day work happens. Slack is closer to the work, and the two often need the same facts about the same people, organizations, and transactions. Bridging them by hand, or by nightly file transfer, leaves each side out of date for hours at a time.

Stacksync syncs Files, Reactions, Channels, Messages in Slack with Products, Inventory, Sales orders, Purchase orders in Fishbowl Manufacturing bi-directionally and in real time, with field-level mapping and rules for which system wins on conflict. Changes made where the work happens reach the system of record within seconds, and the reverse.

Common use cases

  • Archive channel messages into a warehouse or database for compliance and analytics
  • Create or update records in a database when specific messages or reactions occur in a channel
  • Sync manufacture order status into planning dashboards or a data warehouse.
  • Push purchase orders from procurement tools into Fishbowl and sync receipts back on arrival.
