Why teams connect Greenhouse and Sage X3

Sync the workers, org structure, and cost centers that Sage X3 and Greenhouse share in real time, so the people Greenhouse manages stay current in the system that runs finance and operations.

Greenhouse 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. Sage X3 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 Products, Sales Orders, Purchase Orders, Work Orders in Sage X3 with Departments and Offices, Candidates, Applications, Jobs in Greenhouse 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 Sage X3 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 Push orders from e-commerce or EDI channels into X3 sales orders and return delivery status.
  • 02 Publish per-site stock levels to storefronts and a WMS on a schedule.
  • 03 Export Scorecards and Scheduled Interviews to a data warehouse to analyze interviewer load and interview outcomes.
  • 04 Two-way sync Candidates and Applications with Postgres so recruiting-ops apps read and update stage, status, and custom fields in SQL while recruiters stay in Greenhouse.

Common sync patterns

Reporting lines drive approvals

Manager and reporting-hierarchy changes in Greenhouse keep expense and purchase approval chains in Sage X3 pointed at the right people.

Where Greenhouse runs payroll: labor cost in the books

Pay and compensation data from Greenhouse posts into Sage X3 as labor cost, so finance sees workforce spend without re-entering it by hand.

Where Greenhouse is the worker system of record: one employee master

When a worker is hired, moved, or offboarded in Greenhouse, the matching employee record in Sage X3 is created, updated, or deactivated, so the business system reflects the workforce as it actually is.

What you can sync between Greenhouse and Sage X3

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.

Greenhouse objects Sage X3 objects How this pairing syncs
Applications Links a Candidate to a Job; carries current stage, status, and source. Movable, rejectable, and hireable through Harvest write calls. Products Item master with units, costing, and site data, synced to commerce and PLM tools. Applications is specific to Greenhouse and Products to Sage X3 — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Jobs Requisitions with openings, hiring team, departments, and offices; created and patched via Harvest, read out for funnel and time-to-fill reporting. Sales Orders Order documents written from external channels and read for fulfillment status. Jobs is specific to Greenhouse and Sales Orders to Sage X3 — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Offers Offer records tied to an Application with status and custom offer fields; readable and patchable, commonly synced to HRIS on hire. Purchase Orders Procurement documents synced with supplier-facing systems. Offers is specific to Greenhouse and Purchase Orders to Sage X3 — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Scorecards Interviewer feedback and ratings tied to interviews; read-only in Harvest, exported to a warehouse for interview analytics. Work Orders Production orders read by MES and scheduling integrations. Scorecards is specific to Greenhouse and Work Orders to Sage X3 — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Scheduled Interviews Interview events with interviewers, times, and rooms; full create/update/delete support for calendar and reporting syncs. Stock / Inventory by site On-hand and allocated quantities per site, synced to storefronts and WMS. Scheduled Interviews is specific to Greenhouse and Stock / Inventory by site to Sage X3 — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Users Greenhouse users (recruiters, hiring managers); read and written, and referenced by the On-Behalf-Of header on every write. Bills of Material Product structures read for planning and costing. Users is specific to Greenhouse and Bills of Material to Sage X3 — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Greenhouse and Sage X3

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.

Greenhouse Sage X3 Sub-second propagation

DetectionGreenhouse notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. HMAC-SHA256 signed webhooks for candidate, application, job, and interview events, plus polling list endpoints with created_after / updated_after /.

DeliveryEach detected change is applied to Sage X3 as a row-level write, with types converted between the two schemas.

Sage X3 Greenhouse Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Sage X3 for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Scheduled polling.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Greenhouse: Harvest enforces a per-integration limit over a rolling 10-second window (X-RateLimit-Limit, commonly 50 requests / 10s for approved integrations); responses carry X-RateLimit-Remaining and, on a 429, X-RateLimit-Reset and Retry-After.
