Why teams connect Brightpearl and Smartrecruiters

Sync the workers, org structure, and cost centers that Brightpearl and Smartrecruiters share in real time, so the people Smartrecruiters manages stay current in the system that runs finance and operations.

Smartrecruiters is the system of record for people: who was hired, which department and location they sit in, who they report to, and how they are paid. Brightpearl runs finance and operations, and much of what it does depends on that same information, from booking labor cost to approving an expense report to staffing a project. Where the two are bridged by re-keying or an overnight file, each side spends the day out of step, with new hires missing from the systems they need and leavers still active where they should not be.

Stacksync syncs Goods-out notes, Invoices and payments, Custom fields, Products in Brightpearl with Jobs, Job Postings, Interviews, Offers in Smartrecruiters field by field, in real time, and in both directions. You decide which system owns which fields, so the people side stays authoritative for worker data while Brightpearl keeps its own accounting and operational detail, and every change made in one is reflected in the other within seconds instead of at the next batch run.

Common use cases

  • 01 Sync Brightpearl sales orders and fulfillment status with a CRM so sales and support see order state without switching tools.
  • 02 Mirror inventory levels from Brightpearl into a database that feeds availability to storefronts and marketplaces.
  • 03 Two-way sync Candidates and Applications with Postgres so recruiting-ops apps read and update hiring status, tags, and custom fields in SQL while recruiters keep working in SmartRecruiters.
  • 04 Write enriched or sourced Candidates from external sourcing tools into SmartRecruiters and keep contact fields refreshed as data changes.
