Why teams connect Infor M3 and Workday

Keep Workday and Infor M3 agreeing on customers, invoices, and balances, whether they split the finance workload or one is replacing the other.

A dedicated finance tool and an ERP end up side by side for practical reasons: a subsidiary runs lighter software than headquarters, billing runs in a specialist system while the enterprise system holds the wider view, or the company is mid-migration and both are live. Whatever the split, the two systems describe overlapping customers and transactions, and that overlap drifts without a live connection.

Stacksync syncs Workers, Organizations, Positions, Compensation in Workday with Customer Orders, Purchase Orders, Manufacturing Orders, Inventory Balances in Infor M3 in real time and in both directions. You decide which system wins on which field, and every change made in one is reflected in the other within seconds instead of at the next batch run.

Common use cases

  • Sync worker records from Workday into IT and identity systems so hires, transfers, and terminations provision access automatically.
  • Replicate worker, organization, and compensation data into a secured database for people analytics without giving analysts tenant access.
  • Consolidate M3 transactional data into an analytics database for cross-plant reporting
  • Sync M3 item master and inventory balances to commerce or CPQ systems so quotes price against live stock

Where Workday handles billing: invoices land in Infor M3

Invoices and payment activity from the billing side post through to the enterprise system automatically.

Migration without a hard cutover

When one system is replacing the other, run both in parallel with records matching until the switch is complete.

One customer and vendor master

Where both systems keep records of the same organizations, corrections made in either propagate to the other.

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.
