Why teams connect IBM AS/400 and Infor CRM

Treat Infor CRM like part of your database: its records live in IBM AS/400 as real tables, and writes in either place sync to the other in seconds.

Product and engineering teams constantly need CRM data, and the CRM API is a poor way to get it: rate limits, pagination, custom objects, and integration code that breaks when an admin renames a field. What they actually want is the data in IBM AS/400, where it can be queried and joined like everything else.

Stacksync mirrors Tickets, Activities, Campaigns, Custom entities from Infor CRM into Journals and journal receivers, Data queues, Libraries, Physical files (tables) in IBM AS/400 with real-time, bi-directional sync. Read CRM records with plain queries; write updates from your application and they appear in Infor CRM with validation intact. Go-to-market teams keep working in the CRM, engineers keep working in the database, and neither has to think about the other.

Common use cases

  • Support a migration to another CRM by running both systems in sync during the transition.
  • Run a two-way sync between Infor CRM accounts and contacts and a Postgres database so internal tools read CRM data with SQL.
  • Feed shipment and invoice data from the AS/400 into logistics and finance tools in near real time.
  • Expose AS/400 order, inventory, and item master data to modern SaaS tools without rewriting green-screen applications.

Query the CRM like a database

Accounts, contacts, and custom objects from Infor CRM become tables in IBM AS/400 you can join with application data directly.

Product events onto CRM records

Signup, usage, or lifecycle changes written to IBM AS/400 sync onto the matching records in Infor CRM, giving go-to-market teams live product context.

Internal tools without API code

Back-office apps read and write the synced tables; Stacksync handles the Infor CRM API, limits, and retries.

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

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 CRM objects
Physical files (tables) The Db2 for i tables mapped directly to sync targets. Opportunities Pipeline records synced out for forecasting and reporting.
Logical files (views) Indexed or filtered views over physical files, usable as read sources. Tickets Service records synced with helpdesk and field service systems.
Members Sub-partitions of files in legacy applications, flattened or selected during syncs. Activities Calls, meetings, and tasks synced for engagement reporting.
Rows / records The unit of read and write, accessed via SQL or record-level access. Campaigns Marketing containers linked to leads and opportunities.
Journals and journal receivers The change log that enables log-based CDC on journaled files. Custom entities Deployment-specific objects added through the customizable entity model.
Data queues Program-to-program messaging objects sometimes used to hand events off to integrations. Accounts Company records matched against ERP customer masters in syncs.
