Why teams connect MotherDuck and QAD ERP

Put QAD ERP's records in MotherDuck as live tables for reporting and analysis, without extract jobs, and write results back where QAD ERP can use them.

ERP data is some of the most asked-for data in the warehouse and some of the hardest to get: the record types are many, the APIs are strict, and extract jobs are brittle. Whether QAD ERP carries financials, operations, workforce data, or all three, the analysis belongs in MotherDuck next to everything else the company measures.

Stacksync syncs Suppliers, Sales orders, Purchase orders, Work orders from QAD ERP into tables in MotherDuck continuously, managing API limits and schema drift along the way. The connection is bi-directional, so values computed in MotherDuck can be written back to fields in QAD ERP where that is useful.

Common use cases

  • Share curated, synced datasets with other teams through read-only database shares
  • Land CRM and operational database records in MotherDuck so a small team gets warehouse-style analytics without cluster management
  • Replicate inventory and work-order data into a warehouse for supply chain analytics across plants.
  • Push EDI orders from trading partners into QAD as sales orders.

Write-back where QAD ERP exposes writable fields

Classifications or reference values computed in MotherDuck sync back onto the corresponding records in QAD ERP.

Where QAD ERP holds the books: finance reporting from live data

Financial records land in MotherDuck as they change, so period-end reporting queries current numbers rather than last night's extract.

Where QAD ERP is the HR system of record: workforce analytics

Worker and organization data syncs into MotherDuck for headcount, cost, and planning analysis alongside other company data.
