Why teams connect IBM AS/400 and Snapfulfil

Give your engineers Snapfulfil'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 Sales orders, Purchase orders / ASNs, Items (SKUs), Inventory balances from Snapfulfil into IBM AS/400 and keeps both sides consistent in real time. Whatever Snapfulfil 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 Snapfulfil 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.
  • Mirror fulfillment activity into a database for operational reporting outside the WMS
  • Push sales orders from an ERP or e-commerce platform into Snapfulfil for fulfillment without file drops

Internal tools and automations without API code

Scripts and services read and write the synced tables; Stacksync handles the Snapfulfil interface, limits, and retries.

React to ERP changes

Updates in Snapfulfil arrive as row changes in IBM AS/400, so jobs and triggers can respond as the business record changes.

Where Snapfulfil 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.

What you can sync between IBM AS/400 and Snapfulfil

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 Snapfulfil objects
Members Sub-partitions of files in legacy applications, flattened or selected during syncs. Purchase orders / ASNs Inbound expectations that drive receiving and putaway.
Rows / records The unit of read and write, accessed via SQL or record-level access. Items (SKUs) The item master, usually sourced from the ERP or storefront.
Journals and journal receivers The change log that enables log-based CDC on journaled files. Inventory balances On-hand and allocated stock, read back to keep the ERP and selling channels accurate.
Data queues Program-to-program messaging objects sometimes used to hand events off to integrations. Shipments Dispatch confirmations with carrier and tracking details returned to the order source.
Libraries The schema-equivalent containers that scope which files a sync reads. Warehouse locations Bin and zone structure referenced by stock and movement records.
Physical files (tables) The Db2 for i tables mapped directly to sync targets. Returns Inbound customer returns processed back into stock or quarantine.
