Why teams connect Infor M3 and Zendesk

Bridge the tools people work in and the system the business runs on: real-time, two-way sync between Zendesk and Infor M3.

The ERP holds the records the business is run on, and it is rarely where day-to-day work happens. Zendesk is closer to the work, and the two often need the same facts about the same people, organizations, and transactions. Bridging them by hand, or by nightly file transfer, leaves each side out of date for hours at a time.

Stacksync syncs Tickets Comments, Users, Organizations, Attachments in Zendesk with Suppliers, Customer Orders, Purchase Orders, Manufacturing Orders in Infor M3 bi-directionally and in real time, with field-level mapping and rules for which system wins on conflict. Changes made where the work happens reach the system of record within seconds, and the reverse.

Common use cases

  • Mirror high-priority or escalated tickets into engineering trackers through the synced database.
  • Consolidate several Zendesk instances into one reporting database after a merger or brand split.
  • Sync M3 item master and inventory balances to commerce or CPQ systems so quotes price against live stock
  • Push orders captured in a CRM into M3 as customer orders without manual re-entry

Where Zendesk faces customers and Infor M3 carries account records

Order, invoice, or account status from Infor M3 appears alongside the customer in Zendesk, so front-line teams answer from live data.

Where Infor M3 is the HR or people system of record

Worker and organization data from Infor M3 stays current in Zendesk, so the tools people use daily reflect the org as it actually is.

Master data corrections travel

A customer, supplier, or contact detail corrected in either system updates the other, ending duplicate maintenance.
