Why teams connect Brightpearl and Citus

Give your engineers Brightpearl's data in Citus: 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 Goods-out notes, Invoices and payments, Custom fields, Products from Brightpearl into Citus and keeps both sides consistent in real time. Whatever Brightpearl is the system of record for, whether financials, operations, people, or procurement, those records become rows your code can query, and changes written in Citus sync back into Brightpearl with its validations respected.

Common use cases

  • Consolidate per-tenant rows from distributed tables into per-customer reporting databases.
  • Sync high-volume event or tenant data from a Citus cluster into a warehouse for cross-tenant analytics.
  • Push invoices and payments into an accounting platform for reconciliation.
  • Keep the product catalog aligned between Brightpearl and e-commerce channels, including price list changes.

Internal tools and automations without API code

Scripts and services read and write the synced tables; Stacksync handles the Brightpearl interface, limits, and retries.

React to ERP changes

Updates in Brightpearl arrive as row changes in Citus, so jobs and triggers can respond as the business record changes.

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

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

What you can sync between Brightpearl and Citus

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.

Brightpearl objects Citus objects
Goods-out notes Fulfillment documents that carry picking and shipping status back to order sources. Distributed tables Tables sharded across worker nodes by a distribution column; the main sync target for large datasets.
Invoices and payments Financial documents synced to accounting platforms for reconciliation. Reference tables Small lookup tables replicated to every node, synced like ordinary Postgres tables.
Custom fields Per-object custom attributes included in field mappings. Local tables Coordinator-only tables that behave exactly like standard PostgreSQL tables.
Products SKU records with variants and price lists, synced with e-commerce and ERP catalogs. Schemas Standard Postgres namespaces used to scope what a sync user can read and write.
Sales orders Orders from all channels; the central object for fulfillment and revenue syncs. Views Curated projections over distributed data, often used as read-only sync sources.
Purchase orders Supplier orders synced with procurement or accounting systems. Sequences Key generators that matter when external writes must not collide with application inserts.

How the Brightpearl and Citus connectors work

Brightpearl

Integration surface
REST API, organized into services (order, product, contact, warehouse, accounting)
Authentication
OAuth 2.0 (authorization code grant) for current apps; legacy private and public apps authenticate with app reference and account token headers
Change detection
Webhooks for object created/updated events, with resource search polling as a fallback
Capabilities
read · write · webhooks
Rate limits
Requests are throttled per account under Brightpearl's API usage policies; bulk operations should use batch endpoints

Citus

Integration surface
PostgreSQL wire protocol; any standard Postgres driver connects to the coordinator node
Authentication
Database credentials (standard PostgreSQL authentication; managed deployments add cloud IAM options)
Change detection
PostgreSQL logical decoding / CDC, with caveats: changes to distributed tables occur on worker shards, so CDC setup differs from single-node Postgres
