Why teams connect Bill and Servicemax

Connect the financial records in Bill with the work happening in Servicemax, so both stay current without exports or copy-paste.

Bill holds the financial truth: who the customers are, what they were billed, what they paid. Servicemax is where part of the day-to-day work happens, and that work often involves the same customers and transactions. Without a live connection, the two drift apart, and people end up answering questions from stale copies.

Stacksync keeps Payments, Chart of Accounts, Bank Accounts, Vendor Credits and Credit Memos in Bill and Stock History, Accounts, Contacts, Cases in Servicemax in sync, bi-directionally and in real time. Whatever records Servicemax keeps and whatever events it produces, the overlap with Bill is mapped field by field, and a change on either side shows up on the other within seconds.

There is no middleware to build, no API rate limits to babysit, and no nightly job that leaves the morning running on yesterday's data.

Common use cases

  • 01 Write Vendors created during ERP onboarding into BILL so new payees are ready to pay without manual re-entry.
  • 02 Read Payments and payment status into a reconciliation database once bills are marked paid in BILL.
  • 03 Mirror Accounts and Contacts between ServiceMax and the CRM system of record so customer and site data stays consistent.
  • 04 Sync Work Orders (SVMXC__Service_Order__c) and Work Details bi-directionally with Postgres so ops and analytics teams read and write field-service data in plain SQL.

Common sync patterns

Where Servicemax handles customer conversations: billing context in view

Front-line teams see invoice and payment status from Bill next to the customer they are helping, without logging into the finance system.

Where Servicemax collects payments or triggers charges: events land in Bill

Payment and charge activity flows into Bill as it happens, so the books reflect reality without manual reconciliation.

Where Servicemax tracks people or companies: one identity

A customer's details updated in either system update the other, so finance and the rest of the business stop maintaining two versions of the same customer.

How changes propagate between Bill and Servicemax

Each direction of the sync is driven by what the source system can signal and what the destination accepts — detection, delivery, and expected latency below.

Bill Servicemax Sub-second propagation

DetectionBill notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhook event subscriptions (POST /v3/subscriptions) for bills, vendors, payments, invoices, and bank accounts, with polling on.

DeliveryEach detected change is written to Servicemax through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Servicemax Bill Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in Servicemax are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. Salesforce mechanisms — Apex triggers or polling on SystemModstamp/LastModifiedDate, with Change Data Capture / Platform Events available per object.

DeliveryEach detected change is written to Bill through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Rate-limit considerations

  • Bill: 20,000 requests per developer key per hour; login (POST /v3/login) capped at 200/hour; maximum 3 concurrent requests per developer key per organization. Spend & Expense API is a separate token at 60 calls/token/minute.
  • Servicemax: Governed by the Salesforce org-wide daily API request allocation, shared across all integrations and scaled by edition and license count.
