Teams building with Stacksync

Plan the connection your business needs

Explore a 6sense and Epicor ERP integration with a Stacksync engineer. Stacksync support for 6sense and Epicor ERP is not established by the connector documentation reviewed for this page. Start with one record and the update your business needs to identify an implementation path.

01 / Business process

Start with one meaningful update

Identify the record that changes in 6sense or Epicor ERP, where it needs to appear, and which team depends on it.

02 / Data access

Establish the available connection

Bring the objects, account editions, and required directions. An engineer can review the connector path, permissions, and field access.

03 / Success criteria

Define a result you can verify

Agree on record matching, acceptable delay, expected volume, and how your team will resolve failed updates.

Technical referenceAvailable documentation, candidate record relationships, and questions for your technical review.

Prepare your technical review

Use the worksheets and reference checks to capture record identity, ownership, and the result your business expects.

Implementation reference

Record identity and field ownership

Use these data-model references to describe the records your connection needs. They are planning examples; connector availability and supported operations must be established before implementation.

Customer identityAccounts Customers

Before linking 6sense Accounts to Epicor ERP Customers, check whether the customer is an individual or a company. Match the correct record type in each system.

Record identity

Determine whether each customer represents an individual, a company, or a business-unit relationship before matching it to a contact or organization. Retain the source customer ID and destination ID; names and email alone are insufficient.

Field ownership

Separate the customer relationship from contact details, billing authority, and consent. Choose an owner for each field after identifying whether the customer is a person or company.

Fields to include

  • Source customer ID
  • Person/company classification
  • Legal entity or business unit
  • Destination identity reference

Architecture decision

Choose how to connect your systems

Choose a method around one example record and the update your business needs. Use Accounts / Customers to review record matching and confirm Stacksync support for the required operations. Compare ongoing sync, a custom workflow, and a scheduled export against that requirement.

Stacksync managed sync

Best fit
Review compatibility with a Stacksync engineer using an example of the records and updates you need.
Operating responsibility
Fits ongoing record synchronization when the required operations are supported. Add workflow steps for approvals or business actions that go beyond copying fields.
Before you choose
Check record matching: Determine whether each customer represents an individual, a company, or a business-unit relationship before matching it to a contact or organization. Retain the source customer ID and destination ID; names and email alone are insufficient. Verify field coverage, deletion handling, and how changes are detected.

Native vendor integration

Best fit
A vendor-built integration may fit if it supports your 6sense and Epicor ERP record types.
Operating responsibility
Can reduce setup for a supported workflow. You may need another method for records or business steps it does not cover.
Before you choose
First check whether either vendor offers this integration. If available, verify Accounts / Customers, update direction, account tier, and related-record handling.

Custom API or workflow

Best fit
Consider when 6sense and Epicor ERP need a transformation, approval, or action outside a direct record sync.
Operating responsibility
Provides control over business steps; the team owns credentials, version changes, error queues, and reconciliation.
Before you choose
Verify endpoint permissions, pagination, quotas, duplicate detection, and failure recovery. Separate reading history from actions that send messages, grant access, or post transactions.

File or scheduled snapshot

Best fit
Consider for a one-time 6sense / Epicor ERP migration or a reporting need with an explicit freshness window.
Operating responsibility
Can simplify a bounded transfer; later changes and deletion history require another extraction or a separately designed incremental process.
Before you choose
Record the extraction cutoff, source IDs, encoding, date/number formats, and reconciliation totals.

Workflow reference

From a business event to the right update

Open a workflow to see its trigger, record relationships, and expected result.

Customer sync test

Starting event: A change to the selected Accounts or Customers record needs a defined result in the other system.

  1. Start with 6sense Accounts and Epicor ERP Customers. Use the record-matching and field-ownership rules from your mapping worksheet.
  2. Resolve person or company type, legal entity, business role, and any billing account before transactions.
  3. Test a normal update and one failed or repeated update in the supported direction. Keep both record IDs with the test results.

Expected result: Test an individual buyer, a company buyer, and one company with multiple billing relationships. Do not merge these into a single generic contact.

If it fails: Hold ambiguous customer matches for review and resolve customer type before retrying dependent records.

Customer sync test

Starting event: A change to the selected People / Contacts or Customers record needs a defined result in the other system.

  1. Start with 6sense People / Contacts and Epicor ERP Customers. Use the record-matching and field-ownership rules from your mapping worksheet.
  2. Resolve person or company type, legal entity, business role, and any billing account before transactions.
  3. Test a normal update and one failed or repeated update in the supported direction. Keep both record IDs with the test results.

Expected result: Test an individual buyer, a company buyer, and one company with multiple billing relationships. Do not merge these into a single generic contact.

If it fails: Hold ambiguous customer matches for review and resolve customer type before retrying dependent records.

Reconcile Epicor ERP business records with 6sense

Starting event: A finance-owned record in Epicor ERP needs operational visibility through Accounts or People / Contacts.

  1. Select Customers or Suppliers with the correct legal entity, period, and currency.
  2. Define a reporting relationship in 6sense; do not equate customer records, ledger accounts, and posted transactions.
  3. Decide whether the process only reports a financial state or requests an approved accounting action, and maintain a separate transaction ID for each action.

Expected result: Totals reconcile within the same entity/currency/window; a repeated handoff creates no duplicate financial transaction.

If it fails: Verify posting and settlement state before retrying. Use the approved adjustment path for already-posted transactions.

Production readiness

Test the behavior your business depends on

Keep both record IDs with the expected and actual result. Reconcile the same filters and time window in each system.

Accounts / Customers

Test case

Test an individual buyer, a company buyer, and one company with multiple billing relationships. Do not merge these into a single generic contact.

Expected result

The expected customer relationship is preserved with no duplicate action or unintended write.

People / Contacts / Customers

Test case

Test an individual buyer, a company buyer, and one company with multiple billing relationships. Do not merge these into a single generic contact.

Expected result

The expected customer relationship is preserved with no duplicate action or unintended write.

Direction and permissions

Test case

Bring an example source record and the intended destination operation to the compatibility review. Confirm the supported route before granting write access.

Expected result

Only an approved, supported direction and permitted fields are written.

Freshness and reconciliation

Test case

Measure source and destination times for the selected records under normal load and a burst. Reconcile IDs and values using the same filters and cutoff.

Expected result

The process meets its agreed freshness target and reconciliation has no unexplained differences.

Failure recovery

Find the cause. Restore the data flow.

Start with the failed record and the destination error, then inspect the source value, field requirements, and access.

Rejected or repeated customer change

Investigate

Inspect 6sense Accounts and Epicor ERP Customers, their IDs, and the destination error.

Next action

Hold ambiguous customer matches for review and resolve customer type before retrying dependent records.

Rejected or repeated customer change

Investigate

Inspect 6sense People / Contacts and Epicor ERP Customers, their IDs, and the destination error.

Next action

Hold ambiguous customer matches for review and resolve customer type before retrying dependent records.

A record type or update is unavailable

Investigate

Check the 6sense and Epicor ERP connector guides, account permissions, and any operations marked On Request.

Next action

Ask the integration team to confirm a supported way to handle that record. Verify whether it needs connector configuration or a separate workflow step.

Source and destination disagree after a retry

Investigate

Compare current source values, destination validation, identity mappings, and any side effects already completed.

Next action

Stacksync issue retry reads the current source state. Decide the intended state before retrying or reverting; reconcile downstream effects separately.

Read the Stacksync issues dashboard guide for retry and revert behavior.

  • Review write-back, deletion handling, update timing, and account limits with the integration team.
  • Review write-back, deletion handling, update timing, and account limits with the integration team.

Prepare 6sense and Epicor ERP access

Set up both accounts before testing the mapping. Use test records where available, and identify the account administrator who can approve access and help resolve setup errors.

6sense setup checklist

  • Identify the 6sense account, edition, environment, and business objects the integration must access.
  • Confirm a Stacksync connector or implementation path for 6sense, including read/write support, authentication, and initial-load limits.

Epicor ERP setup checklist

  • Identify the Epicor ERP account, edition, environment, and business objects the integration must access.
  • Confirm a Stacksync connector or implementation path for Epicor ERP, including read/write support, authentication, and initial-load limits.

Prepare to go live

Record the fields each system can update, the first-load cutoff, both record IDs, the expected update delay, and who handles errors. Complete the tests before production before expanding to more records.

Use the 6sense and Epicor ERP planning worksheet to capture these decisions. Record the access owner in the worksheet and enter credentials only in the connection setup.
