Why teams connect Infor M3 and TiDB

Give your engineers Infor M3'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 Warehouses, Price Lists, Items, Customers from Infor M3 into TiDB and keeps both sides consistent in real time. Whatever Infor M3 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 Infor M3 with its validations respected.

Common use cases

  • Stream row-level changes to a warehouse or Kafka via CDC for near-real-time analytics
  • Serve mixed transactional and analytical workloads on synced data using TiFlash columnar replicas
  • Mirror M3 customers and invoices into a CRM or warehouse so sales and finance share one AR view
  • Feed manufacturing order status to a customer portal for order tracking in fashion, food, or equipment supply chains

Controlled write-back

Choose exactly which tables and fields may flow from TiDB back into Infor M3, keeping the ERP authoritative.

Read ERP records with a query

Records from Infor M3 live in TiDB as ordinary tables or collections, joinable with the rest of your data.

Internal tools and automations without API code

Scripts and services read and write the synced tables; Stacksync handles the Infor M3 interface, limits, and retries.

What you can sync between Infor M3 and TiDB

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.

Infor M3 objects TiDB objects
Suppliers Supplier records align procurement tools with the vendors M3 purchases from. Views Logical views for shaping reads before syncing outward.
Customer Orders Orders created in commerce or CRM systems land in M3 for fulfillment and invoicing. Columns MySQL-compatible types mapped to fields in the paired system.
Purchase Orders PO headers and lines sync outward so buyers and receiving teams see the same demand. Indexes Secondary indexes that keep incremental sync queries efficient.
Manufacturing Orders Production order status feeds portals and CRMs so promised dates reflect the shop floor. Sequences Server-side ID generation relevant when external systems write rows.
Inventory Balances On-hand quantities by warehouse drive available-to-promise in downstream channels. Databases MySQL-style schemas addressed by any MySQL-compatible client.
Invoices Billing documents flow to finance and CRM tools for AR visibility. Tables Row data stored in TiKV; the primary unit for reads, writes, and CDC.
