Why teams connect QAD ERP and TimescaleDB

Give your engineers QAD ERP's data in TimescaleDB: 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 General ledger transactions, Items, Customers, Suppliers from QAD ERP into TimescaleDB and keeps both sides consistent in real time. Whatever QAD ERP is the system of record for, whether financials, operations, people, or procurement, those records become rows your code can query, and changes written in TimescaleDB sync back into QAD ERP with its validations respected.

Common use cases

  • Sync product or IoT telemetry stored in TimescaleDB into a CRM so account teams see usage metrics next to the customer record.
  • Replicate subscription and billing events from operational Postgres tables into Timescale hypertables for time-series analysis.
  • Sync items, customers, and orders between QAD and a CRM so sales teams work outside ERP screens.
  • Replicate inventory and work-order data into a warehouse for supply chain analytics across plants.

React to ERP changes

Updates in QAD ERP arrive as row changes in TimescaleDB, so jobs and triggers can respond as the business record changes.

Where QAD ERP is the HR system of record: people data for internal systems

Worker and org records stay current in TimescaleDB for provisioning, access, and reporting systems that read from the database.

Controlled write-back

Choose exactly which tables and fields may flow from TimescaleDB back into QAD ERP, keeping the ERP authoritative.

What you can sync between QAD ERP and TimescaleDB

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.

QAD ERP objects TimescaleDB objects
General ledger transactions Financial postings exported for consolidated reporting Regular PostgreSQL Tables Relational reference data such as devices, tenants, or accounts synced alongside the series data.
Items Item master records shared with CRM, e-commerce, and planning systems Views Standard SQL views used to shape or filter data for consumers.
Customers Account records kept consistent with the sales team's CRM Schemas Postgres namespaces used to separate synced datasets by team or environment.
Suppliers Vendor master data aligned with procurement and AP automation tools Hypertables Time-partitioned tables that hold the main time-series data; the primary read and write target in syncs.
Sales orders Demand records written in from EDI or e-commerce and read out for status Chunks Time-bounded partitions of a hypertable; syncs read and write through the parent hypertable and never address chunks directly.
Purchase orders Procurement documents mirrored to planning and finance systems Continuous Aggregates Incrementally maintained rollups that serve as pre-aggregated read sources for downstream systems.

How the QAD ERP and TimescaleDB connectors work

QAD ERP

Integration surface
REST APIs plus the QXtend XML integration framework
Authentication
instance credentials; specifics depend on the deployment and version
Change detection
polling on the API surface; document-based event exchange available through QXtend in supported configurations
Capabilities
read · write
Rate limits
subject to instance capacity and the platform's API limits

TimescaleDB

Integration surface
SQL wire protocol (PostgreSQL)
Authentication
Database credentials
Change detection
Log-based capture via PostgreSQL logical decoding where the deployment allows it — hypertable changes surface on the underlying chunk tables and must be remapped to the parent — or timestamp-based polling on time columns; regular Postgres tables replicate through standard logical replication
Capabilities
read · write · CDC
Rate limits
No API rate limits; throughput is bounded by database resources and connection limits.
