Why teams connect Box and Rootstock ERP

Move the documents and data that Rootstock ERP produces into Box as files, and let files stored in Box update the records they belong to in Rootstock ERP, continuously and without exports or manual filing.

Rootstock ERP runs the business on structured records: Salesforce Accounts and Contacts, Sales Orders, Work Orders, Purchase Orders. Box holds files and the metadata that describes them: Metadata, Collaborations, Users, Groups. The two do not share a customer table or an order ledger. What they share is documents. Nearly every record Rootstock ERP touches produces a file that belongs in storage, whether an invoice, a purchase order, a statement, or a shipping doc, and many files that land in Box, from signed contracts to vendor bills to receipts, describe a transaction Rootstock ERP needs to record. Left unconnected, that link is maintained by hand: someone exports a PDF and drags it into a folder, or downloads a file and keys its details into a record.

Stacksync keeps Salesforce Accounts and Contacts, Sales Orders, Work Orders, Purchase Orders in Rootstock ERP and Metadata, Collaborations, Users, Groups in Box in sync, bi-directionally and in real time. A document and its details, the customer, the type, the date, an amount, an order or invoice number, are mapped field by field, so a file arrives in Box already labeled and filed, and metadata captured against a stored file can create or update the matching record in Rootstock ERP. Changes on either side show up within seconds, with conflict resolution in place of nightly exports and manual filing.

The result is that a transaction and the document that backs it stay together. Finance, operations, and audit teams find the file behind a record without digging through folders, and the record in Rootstock ERP and the file in Box never describe two different versions of the same document.

Common use cases

  • 01 Push confirmed sales orders to a 3PL or WMS and write shipment confirmations back to Rootstock.
  • 02 Replicate work order and inventory data to a Postgres database or warehouse for shop-floor and planning analytics.
  • 03 Push generated documents from an ERP or contract system into Box Folders with the right Collaborations applied for the deal team.
  • 04 Stream enterprise Events (admin events) into a warehouse for audit, DLP, and access-review reporting.

Common sync patterns

An archive that stays current

As records change in Rootstock ERP, the corresponding files and metadata in Box are kept in step, so a stored document reflects the latest version rather than a stale one-time export.

Audit-ready retention

Every transaction's supporting file lives in Box beside its metadata, giving finance and audit teams a complete, searchable trail tied back to the record in Rootstock ERP.

Documents filed with their context

Files that Rootstock ERP produces land in Box labeled with the customer, document type, and reference number they belong to, so the right copy is one search away instead of buried in a folder.

What you can sync between Box and Rootstock ERP

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.

Box objects Rootstock ERP objects How this pairing syncs
Metadata Structured key-value instances attached to files and folders via metadata templates; synced two-way with database columns for classification and search. Inventory Balances On-hand quantities by site and location, synced to storefronts and WMS. Metadata is specific to Box and Inventory Balances to Rootstock ERP — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Collaborations Access grants linking a user or group to a file or folder with a role such as viewer, editor, or co-owner; written to manage sharing programmatically. Receipts and Shipments Inbound and outbound transactions synced to logistics and 3PL systems. Collaborations is specific to Box and Receipts and Shipments to Rootstock ERP — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Users Managed and app users in the enterprise; provisioned, updated, and deprovisioned to keep Box access aligned with an HR or identity source. Salesforce Accounts and Contacts Shared CRM masters in the same org, so customer data needs no separate ERP sync. Users is specific to Box and Salesforce Accounts and Contacts to Rootstock ERP — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Groups Named user collections used for bulk collaboration; membership synced from a directory or IdP. Sales Orders Order headers and lines synced to fulfillment, invoicing, and reporting systems. Groups is specific to Box and Sales Orders to Rootstock ERP — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

Tasks is specific to Box and Work Orders to Rootstock ERP — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Events Enterprise admin event stream, an audit log of uploads, deletes, logins, and shares across the account; read-only, consumed for reporting or change feeds.

Events is specific to Box and Purchase Orders to Rootstock ERP — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Box and Rootstock ERP

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.

Box Rootstock ERP Sub-second propagation

DetectionBox notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. V2 webhooks fire on triggers such as FILE.UPLOADED, FILE.TRASHED, and METADATA_INSTANCE.UPDATED.

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

Rootstock ERP Box Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in Rootstock ERP are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. Salesforce Change Data Capture on Rootstock custom objects where enabled (entity selection limits apply).

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Box: Per user: 1,000 API calls per minute and 240 file uploads per minute; exceeding limits returns HTTP 429 with a Retry-After header. Box Business plans also carry a licensed monthly API-call allotment per enterprise.
  • Rootstock ERP: Consumes the Salesforce org's daily API request allocation, shared with other integrations.
