Why teams connect Citus and NetSuite

Give your engineers NetSuite'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 Nexus, Tax Type, Sales Tax Item, Billing Schedule Customer Subsidiary Relationship from NetSuite into Citus and keeps both sides consistent in real time. Whatever NetSuite 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 NetSuite with its validations respected.

Common use cases

  • 01 Write CRM or billing records into reference tables so distributed queries can join operational context locally on every node.
  • 02 Use a Citus cluster as the scalable operational store behind a customer-facing app while syncing summaries back to internal tools.
  • 03 Mirror journal entries and transaction lines into a warehouse for financial reporting without CSV exports.
  • 04 Sync customers, sales orders, and invoices to an operational Postgres database so teams query ERP data without writing SuiteScript.

Common sync patterns

Where NetSuite 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.

Controlled write-back

Choose exactly which tables and fields may flow from Citus back into NetSuite, keeping the ERP authoritative.

Read ERP records with a query

Records from NetSuite live in Citus as ordinary tables or collections, joinable with the rest of your data.

What you can sync between Citus and NetSuite

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.

Citus objects NetSuite objects How this pairing syncs
Schemas Standard Postgres namespaces used to scope what a sync user can read and write. Nexus Synced with incremental and full sync per the Stacksync docs. Schemas is specific to Citus and Nexus to NetSuite — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Views Curated projections over distributed data, often used as read-only sync sources. Tax Type Synced with incremental and full sync per the Stacksync docs. Views is specific to Citus and Tax Type to NetSuite — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Sequences Key generators that matter when external writes must not collide with application inserts. Sales Tax Item Synced with incremental and full sync per the Stacksync docs. Sequences is specific to Citus and Sales Tax Item to NetSuite — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Distributed tables Tables sharded across worker nodes by a distribution column; the main sync target for large datasets. Billing Schedule Customer Subsidiary Relationship Synced with incremental and full sync per the Stacksync docs. Distributed tables is specific to Citus and Billing Schedule Customer Subsidiary Relationship to NetSuite — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Reference tables Small lookup tables replicated to every node, synced like ordinary Postgres tables. Account Synced with incremental and full sync per the Stacksync docs. Reference tables is specific to Citus and Account to NetSuite — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Local tables Coordinator-only tables that behave exactly like standard PostgreSQL tables. Accounting Period Synced with incremental and full sync per the Stacksync docs. Local tables is specific to Citus and Accounting Period to NetSuite — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Citus and NetSuite

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.

Citus NetSuite Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in Citus are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. PostgreSQL logical decoding / CDC, with caveats: changes to distributed tables occur on worker shards, so CDC setup differs from single-node Postgres.

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

NetSuite Citus Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls NetSuite for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling on lastModifiedDate via SuiteQL or saved searches.

DeliveryEach detected change is applied to Citus as a row-level write, with types converted between the two schemas.

Rate-limit considerations

  • NetSuite: API concurrency is governed per account; sync tools queue and throttle requests.
