Why teams connect QAD ERP and SAP Business ByDesign

Two ERPs, one set of facts: Stacksync keeps QAD ERP and SAP Business ByDesign consistent in real time, whether they split the business or one is replacing the other.

Companies run two ERPs for structural reasons: a two-tier setup with subsidiaries on lighter systems, an acquisition that brought its own stack, a split by function or region, or a migration that will take quarters. In all of these, some of the same organizations, people, and transactions exist in both systems, and keeping them aligned by hand is a standing tax on the back office.

Stacksync syncs Sales orders, Purchase orders, Work orders, Inventory balances in QAD ERP with Sales Orders, Customer Invoices, Materials / Products, Purchase Orders in SAP Business ByDesign bi-directionally and in real time, with field-level mapping across the two data models and conflict rules you define. A record changed in either system is reflected in the other within seconds, not at the next interface run.

Common use cases

  • Push EDI orders from trading partners into QAD as sales orders.
  • Keep supplier and purchase-order records aligned with procurement or AP automation tools.
  • Align the ByDesign material master with external product catalogs and inventory systems.
  • Sync project and time data with external professional-services tools for billing.

Split by function

Where one system is the people or finance suite and the other runs operations, the records both sides depend on, such as organizations, cost centers, and reference data, stay in agreement.

Two-tier roll-up

Where subsidiaries run one system and headquarters runs the other, shared records and transactions flow up continuously, so consolidation starts from live data.

Migration in parallel

When one system is replacing the other, run both fully live during the transition and cut over without a data freeze.
