Why teams connect IBM AS/400 and Infor CloudSuite

Give your engineers Infor CloudSuite's data in IBM AS/400: 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 Invoices, Inventory balances, GL journal entries, Items from Infor CloudSuite into IBM AS/400 and keeps both sides consistent in real time. Whatever Infor CloudSuite is the system of record for, whether financials, operations, people, or procurement, those records become rows your code can query, and changes written in IBM AS/400 sync back into Infor CloudSuite with its validations respected.

Common use cases

  • Use journal-based change capture to replicate IBM i data into a cloud warehouse for reporting.
  • Keep customer and item files aligned with an ecommerce platform or modern ERP during phased modernization.
  • Align the ERP customer master with billing and support systems so finance and CX share one account record.
  • Sync items, customers, and orders between CloudSuite and a CRM so sales quotes against live pricing and inventory.

Where Infor CloudSuite is the HR system of record: people data for internal systems

Worker and org records stay current in IBM AS/400 for provisioning, access, and reporting systems that read from the database.

Controlled write-back

Choose exactly which tables and fields may flow from IBM AS/400 back into Infor CloudSuite, keeping the ERP authoritative.

Read ERP records with a query

Records from Infor CloudSuite live in IBM AS/400 as ordinary tables or collections, joinable with the rest of your data.

What you can sync between IBM AS/400 and Infor CloudSuite

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.

IBM AS/400 objects Infor CloudSuite objects
Members Sub-partitions of files in legacy applications, flattened or selected during syncs. Customers Account masters matched against CRM records in two-way syncs.
Rows / records The unit of read and write, accessed via SQL or record-level access. Suppliers / vendors Procurement counterparties synced with sourcing and AP tools.
Journals and journal receivers The change log that enables log-based CDC on journaled files. Sales orders Demand-side documents synced in from commerce channels and out for fulfillment visibility.
Data queues Program-to-program messaging objects sometimes used to hand events off to integrations. Purchase orders Supply-side documents shared with procurement and supplier portals.
Libraries The schema-equivalent containers that scope which files a sync reads. Invoices Billing documents synced to finance and reporting systems.
Physical files (tables) The Db2 for i tables mapped directly to sync targets. Inventory balances On-hand quantities exposed so external channels quote against real stock.
