Example workflow

Customer invoice reporting workflow

Object-specific availability and field permissions determine this mapping. Use the restrictions shown for each record type.

Starting eventA change involving Campfire Invoice or the proposed customer invoice table in SQL Server needs a defined result in the other system.

  1. Start with Campfire Invoice and the proposed customer invoice table in SQL Server. Use the record-matching and field-ownership rules from your mapping worksheet.

  2. Resolve the customer or supplier, account codes, tax, currency, and accounting period before posting.

  3. Test a normal update and one failed or repeated update in the supported direction. Keep both record IDs with the test results.

What to verifyTest a posted invoice, a partial payment, tax rounding, and a closed accounting period. Compare financial totals within the same entity and currency.

Why teams connect Campfire and SQL Server

Put your Campfire and SQL Server data to work

Start with the work your team needs to complete: keep records up to date, make operational data available for reporting, or move data to a new system. Choose one Campfire and SQL Server workflow to test, define what success looks like, and decide who handles failed updates.

  • Feed established SQL Server reporting with live Campfire Invoice data.

  • Integrate Campfire Debit Memo and Credit Memo records into internal apps built on SQL Server Databases.

  • Query Campfire Bank Transaction history with T-SQL using the sync's Primary and Unique Keys for reliable joins.

What records can you sync?

Start with the records your workflow needs. Check each system’s read and write requirements before mapping fields.

Compare integration approaches

Use Campfire Invoice and SQL Server Proposed customer invoice table in SQL Server (choose its name) for the first pilot. Verify its identity and permitted direction, then add dependent records only when the acceptance checks pass.

Stacksync managed sync

Best fit
Two-way sync for supported objects. Choose the records, writable fields, and permissions for your workflow.
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: Retain the invoice ID, issuer/legal entity, and original order reference; invoice numbers alone may overlap. 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 Campfire and SQL Server 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 Invoice / Proposed customer invoice table in SQL Server (choose its name), update direction, account tier, and related-record handling.

Custom API or workflow

Best fit
Consider when Campfire and SQL Server 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 Campfire / SQL Server 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 scenarios and expected results

Customer invoice reporting workflow

Object-specific availability and field permissions determine this mapping. Use the restrictions shown for each record type.

Starting event: A change to the selected Invoice or Proposed customer invoice table in SQL Server (choose its name) record needs a defined result in the other system.

  1. Start with Campfire Invoice and SQL Server Proposed customer invoice table in SQL Server (choose its name). Use the record-matching and field-ownership rules from your mapping worksheet.
  2. Resolve the customer or supplier, account codes, tax, currency, and accounting period before posting.
  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 a posted invoice, a partial payment, tax rounding, and a closed accounting period. Compare financial totals within the same entity and currency.

If it fails: Determine whether a transaction posted before retrying. Follow the approved adjustment process for posted records.

Supplier bill reporting workflow

Object-specific availability and field permissions determine this mapping. Use the restrictions shown for each record type.

Starting event: A change to the selected Bill or Proposed supplier bill table in SQL Server (choose its name) record needs a defined result in the other system.

  1. Start with Campfire Bill and SQL Server Proposed supplier bill table in SQL Server (choose its name). Use the record-matching and field-ownership rules from your mapping worksheet.
  2. Resolve supplier, expense/account codes, entity, currency, and accounting period before bill lines.
  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 a duplicate supplier document number in another entity, a partially paid bill, and a closed period.

If it fails: Verify whether the bill was approved or posted before retrying; use the approved adjustment process for posted bills.

Supplier or vendor reporting workflow

Object-specific availability and field permissions determine this mapping. Use the restrictions shown for each record type.

Starting event: A change to the selected Vendor or Proposed supplier or vendor table in SQL Server (choose its name) record needs a defined result in the other system.

  1. Start with Campfire Vendor and SQL Server Proposed supplier or vendor table in SQL Server (choose its name). Use the record-matching and field-ownership rules from your mapping worksheet.
  2. Resolve business-unit and payment-term references before purchasing 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 a supplier shared across subsidiaries and an inactive supplier referenced by an open bill.

If it fails: Review rejected supplier changes before retrying dependent bills; do not reactivate a supplier merely to make a write pass.

Reconcile Campfire business records with SQL Server

Validate the selected objects and operations even where connector-level direction is documented.

Starting event: A finance-owned record in Campfire needs operational visibility through a selected destination dataset.

  1. Select Bill or Invoice with the correct legal entity, period, and currency.
  2. Define a reporting relationship in SQL Server; 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.

Initial load and acceptance testing

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

Invoice / Proposed customer invoice table in SQL Server (choose its name)

Test case

Test a posted invoice, a partial payment, tax rounding, and a closed accounting period. Compare financial totals within the same entity and currency.

Expected result

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

Bill / Proposed supplier bill table in SQL Server (choose its name)

Test case

Test a duplicate supplier document number in another entity, a partially paid bill, and a closed period.

Expected result

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

Vendor / Proposed supplier or vendor table in SQL Server (choose its name)

Test case

Test a supplier shared across subsidiaries and an inactive supplier referenced by an open bill.

Expected result

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

Journal Entry / Proposed journal or ledger entry table in SQL Server (choose its name)

Test case

Verify balanced debits and credits, dimension requirements, and rejection for a closed period.

Expected result

The expected journal or ledger entry relationship is preserved with no duplicate action or unintended write.

Direction and permissions

Test case

Check that each connected account can read and write the chosen objects. Exercise both directions with a test record before enabling production changes.

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.

Failed updates, retries and recovery

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

Rejected or repeated customer invoice change

Investigate

Inspect Campfire Invoice and SQL Server Proposed customer invoice table in SQL Server (choose its name), their IDs, and the destination error.

Next action

Determine whether a transaction posted before retrying. Follow the approved adjustment process for posted records.

Rejected or repeated supplier bill change

Investigate

Inspect Campfire Bill and SQL Server Proposed supplier bill table in SQL Server (choose its name), their IDs, and the destination error.

Next action

Verify whether the bill was approved or posted before retrying; use the approved adjustment process for posted bills.

Rejected or repeated supplier or vendor change

Investigate

Inspect Campfire Vendor and SQL Server Proposed supplier or vendor table in SQL Server (choose its name), their IDs, and the destination error.

Next action

Review rejected supplier changes before retrying dependent bills; do not reactivate a supplier merely to make a write pass.

A record type or update is unavailable

Investigate

Check the Campfire and SQL Server 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.
