Quality Data Connected to the ERP — Both Directions

Quality doesn't exist in a vacuum. The lot you inspect was received against a purchase order from a supplier in your ERP. The complaint you investigate is from a customer with an order history. The work order you audit produced a batch that needs traceability to raw materials. Synesis QMS ERP Connect ties the eQMS directly into your ERP system so quality records reference live business data — and quality decisions feed back into ERP transactions.

ERP Connect supports SAP Business One, SAP S/4HANA, Syspro, and Microsoft Dynamics 365 out of the box, with a generic adapter pattern for other systems. It maps and syncs the entities that matter to quality: customers and contacts, suppliers and vendors, purchase orders and line items, goods receipts (GRNs), delivery notes, work orders, production batches and lots, and customer returns. Each ERP entity gets its own dedicated page in the QMS where you can see, search, filter, export, and AI-enrich the data.

Deploy where your ERP lives. Run Synesis QMS on-premise alongside an on-premise SAP install, on Microsoft Azure next to your cloud ERP, on Amazon Web Services, or on the hosted solution of your choice. ERP Connect works the same way regardless of where the QMS or the ERP run.

ERP Connect Coverage

Customers & Contacts

From Your ERP Master

Customer master data synced live from your ERP — addresses, contacts, payment terms, segmentation. Quality records reference live customer data, not stale copies.

Suppliers & Vendors

Two-Way Sync

Vendor master synced both ways. Approve a supplier in QMS and the approval flows back to the ERP. Block a supplier in ERP and they're blocked in QMS.

Purchase Orders & Lines

Receiving Inspection Source

PO data drives receiving inspection. Match incoming material to PO lines, capture lot and serial numbers, link inspection results to the originating PO.

Goods Receipts (GRNs)

Acceptance & Quality Hold

Goods receipts from ERP feed into QMS for inspection. Failed inspection puts the receipt on quality hold, and the hold flows back to ERP to prevent payment or use.

Delivery Notes

Final Inspection Trigger

Outbound deliveries from ERP trigger final inspection workflows in QMS. Pre-shipment verification becomes a checkpoint, not an afterthought.

Work Orders

In-Process Quality

Work orders sync from ERP to drive in-process inspection schedules. Quality records (NCR, deviation) link directly to the work order and the affected operation.

Batches & Lots

Forward and Backward Traceability

Production batches sync from ERP. Forward trace from raw material lot to finished product shipped to customer. Backward trace from a complaint to the originating raw material.

Customer Returns

RMA & Credit

Customer returns from ERP create RMA records in QMS for inspection and disposition. Disposition feeds back to ERP to drive credit notes and replacement orders.

Why ERP Connect Matters

No Manual Re-Keying

Stop typing the same customer, supplier, or PO number twice. Quality records reference ERP data live. One source of truth.

Bidirectional Quality Holds

A failed inspection in QMS puts the receipt on hold in the ERP. A blocked supplier in ERP can't be selected on a QMS record. Quality decisions are operational decisions.

Forward & Backward Traceability

From a customer complaint, trace back through the delivery, work order, batch, raw material lot, and supplier in seconds. Audit-ready in every regulated industry.
