Why teams connect Coupa and Reltio

Work with Coupa's financial data straight from Reltio: read it with ordinary queries, write to it from your own code, and let Stacksync keep both sides consistent.

Engineers need finance data more often than finance systems make it easy to get: for internal tools, reporting services, or logic that reacts to invoices and payments. Working through the vendor API means rate limits, pagination, and glue code that has to be maintained forever.

Stacksync mirrors Purchase Orders, Invoices, Suppliers, Users from Coupa into Interactions, Matches (Potential Matches), Activity Log, Data Change Requests (DCR) in Reltio and keeps the two in sync bi-directionally and in real time. Your services read finance records with normal queries against Reltio, and rows your code writes or updates flow back into Coupa with validation, so the finance system stays the system of record.

Common use cases

  • 01 Export approved Invoices and their lines from Coupa into an accounting/ERP system to drive the AP pay cycle and GL posting.
  • 02 Push chart-of-accounts segments and cost centers from the ERP into Coupa Accounts so Requisitions and Invoices code to the right GL.
  • 03 Feed Interactions (transactions, visits, events) into Reltio to enrich entity profiles, then read them back for 360-degree reporting.
  • 04 Mirror the Reltio Activity Log and change history into a database for audit, lineage, and governance reporting.

Common sync patterns

Internal tools without API plumbing

Build dashboards and back-office tools directly on Reltio; Stacksync handles the API calls, rate limits, and retries against Coupa.

Write back safely

Updates written to the synced tables in Reltio propagate into Coupa, so automations can create or correct finance records without custom integration code.

React to financial events

Changes in Coupa appear in Reltio as row changes, so you can trigger downstream logic with the database tooling you already use.

What you can sync between Coupa and Reltio

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.

Coupa objects Reltio objects How this pairing syncs
Users Employee and user accounts with roles and content groups; provisioned and updated from an HRIS or identity provider. Data Change Requests (DCR) Stewardship change proposals routed through approval workflows; read and written to feed or track governed edits to golden records. Users is specific to Coupa and Data Change Requests (DCR) to Reltio — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Accounts Chart-of-accounts segments and GL codes; usually mastered in the ERP and written into Coupa so requisitions and invoices code correctly. Reference Data (RDM) Managed lookup and reference values (country codes, standardized values, hierarchies); read and updated so downstream systems share consistent reference data. Accounts is specific to Coupa and Reference Data (RDM) to Reltio — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Contracts Supplier contract records with terms and dates; read out for reporting or created from a CLM system. Entities Golden records for each configured entity type (for example Organization, Individual/Contact, Location, or Product); full CRUD via /entities, so records are created, updated, and deleted, and Reltio matches and merges them by survivorship rules. Contracts is specific to Coupa and Entities to Reltio — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Expense Reports Employee expense reports and their lines; exported to AP or ERP for reimbursement and GL posting. Relations Typed relationships between two entities (affiliations, hierarchies, employment, households); read and written via /relations to keep account hierarchies and affiliation graphs aligned across systems. Expense Reports is specific to Coupa and Relations to Reltio — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Requisitions Employee purchase requests with lines and approval chains; read out to warehouses, or created via the API from upstream intake tools. Crosswalks Per-entity references to the source systems and their record IDs; written when loading records so Reltio ties each source contribution to a golden record, and read to trace lineage back to origin systems. Requisitions is specific to Coupa and Crosswalks to Reltio — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Purchase Orders PO headers and lines; synced two-way with ERPs so orders raised in Coupa flow to the ledger and status updates flow back on the /purchase_orders resource. Interactions Transactional or event records linked to entities (purchases, visits, activities); read and written via /interactions to enrich profiles and power 360-degree reporting. Purchase Orders is specific to Coupa and Interactions to Reltio — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Coupa and Reltio

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.

Coupa Reltio Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Coupa for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling on updated-at and created-at filters (e.g.

Rate-limit considerations

  • Coupa: Coupa does not publish explicit rate limits or expose X-RateLimit/Retry-After headers; integrations page 50 records at a time and back off on 429/503 responses.
  • Reltio: Reltio applies per-tenant API throttling and returns HTTP 429 (Too Many Requests) when limits are exceeded; there is no single fixed request-per-second cap published for all tenants, and throttling is tuned per tenant and environment. Large loads and reads use bulk create/update and the asynchronous export/jobs API rather than row-by-row calls.

How the Coupa and Reltio connectors work

Coupa

Integration surface
REST Core API (JSON or XML)
Authentication
OAuth 2.0 / OIDC via the client-credentials grant; scopes take the service.object.right form (e.g. core.accounting.read, core.accounting.write). Legacy API keys are being retired (no new keys since R34; API-key auth unsupported from R36). Access tokens last 24 hours.
Change detection
Polling on updated-at and created-at filters (e.g. updated-at[gt]=<timestamp>); Coupa has no native webhook subscriptions, though admins can configure outbound Call Out / external notifications.
Capabilities
read · write
Rate limits
Coupa does not publish explicit rate limits or expose X-RateLimit/Retry-After headers; integrations page 50 records at a time and back off on 429/503 responses.

Reltio

Integration surface
Reltio REST API (Data API) — /entities, /relations, /interactions, /activities, plus Match, RDM (reference data), and Data Change Request endpoints; base URL https://{environment}.reltio.com/reltio/api/{tenantId}
Authentication
OAuth 2.0 bearer tokens obtained from Reltio's central auth server (POST https://auth.reltio.com/oauth/token, client-credentials or password grant, application/x-www-form-urlencoded) and sent as Authorization: Bearer <token>; access tokens expire after about 60 minutes and are renewed with a refresh token, and are scoped per API (entities_api, relations_api, interactions_api, configuration_api, graphs_api)
Change detection
Polling the REST API on updateTime (epoch-ms), for example filter=gt(updateTime,<timestamp>), for entities and relations changed past a stored watermark. Reltio has no CDC log external tools consume; separately, Reltio's event streaming can publish entity change events (created, changed, removed) to a customer-configured message queue (Amazon SQS/SNS, Google Pub/Sub, Azure Service Bus, or Kafka), which is a queue feed rather than HTTP webhooks.
Capabilities

Rate limits
Reltio applies per-tenant API throttling and returns HTTP 429 (Too Many Requests) when limits are exceeded; there is no single fixed request-per-second cap published for all tenants, and throttling is tuned per tenant and environment.
