Why teams connect Infor CRM and Tableau

Put live Infor CRM data behind every dashboard and cohort in Tableau, and write the segments and scores Tableau computes back onto the Infor CRM record — one connection, not a nightly export.

Tableau is a read-only source: Stacksync reads its data in real time and delivers it into Infor CRM, so Infor CRM always reflects the current state of Tableau — without exports, scripts, or schedulers.

Tableau turns data into dashboards, cohorts, and metrics; Infor CRM is where customers, contacts, deals, and activity actually live and change. The two meet wherever a number is really about a specific account, segment, or stage — yet most teams feed the CRM into analytics as a nightly extract or a hand-maintained connector, so the reporting lags the business and can't be sliced by the customers and segments that matter.

Stacksync syncs Opportunities, Tickets, Activities, Campaigns from Infor CRM into Tableau field by field and within seconds, so every dashboard and cohort runs on current records instead of a stale copy. Because the connection runs both ways, the cohorts, scores, and metrics computed in Tableau write back to fields in Infor CRM, landing where the people working accounts can see them. You decide which system owns which fields; Stacksync keeps every copy consistent and resolves conflicts by rules you set.

Common use cases

  • 01 Track Extract Refresh Tasks and DatasourceRefreshFailed webhook events to raise alerts in a database or ticketing system when refreshes fail.
  • 02 Read site Users and their site roles for periodic access reviews and to reconcile Tableau accounts against an HR or IdP source of record.
  • 03 Keep Infor CRM aligned with an Infor ERP customer master so sales and finance share one account record.
  • 04 Sync opportunities and activities into a warehouse for pipeline and engagement reporting.

Common sync patterns

Where Infor CRM accepts updates: segments and scores back on the record

Cohorts, scores, and computed metrics from Tableau sync onto fields in Infor CRM, putting the analysis where reps and owners actually work the accounts.

One customer across analytics and CRM

The same account or person is keyed consistently in both systems, so a profile or row in Tableau lines up with the contact or account in Infor CRM.

A record that outlives edits in the CRM

A continuously synced copy of Infor CRM's records and activity in Tableau keeps a queryable history even as records change or age out of the CRM.

What you can sync between Infor CRM and Tableau

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.

Infor CRM objects Tableau objects How this pairing syncs
Leads Unqualified records synced in from marketing sources. Workbooks Workbook content and metadata read via the REST and Metadata APIs; create, update, and delete events fire webhooks for change detection. Leads is specific to Infor CRM and Workbooks to Tableau — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Opportunities Pipeline records synced out for forecasting and reporting. Views Worksheets and dashboards inside workbooks; their data and crosstab export as CSV via the REST query-view-data endpoint. Opportunities is specific to Infor CRM and Views to Tableau — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Tickets Service records synced with helpdesk and field service systems. Projects Folders that organize content and set permissions; listed via REST to mirror the site's content hierarchy into a catalog. Tickets is specific to Infor CRM and Projects to Tableau — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Activities Calls, meetings, and tasks synced for engagement reporting. Users Site users with site roles and group membership; read via REST for access reviews and to reconcile identities against an HR or IdP source. Activities is specific to Infor CRM and Users to Tableau — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Campaigns Marketing containers linked to leads and opportunities. Databases and Tables External assets indexed by Tableau Catalog; queried via the Metadata API GraphQL endpoint for lineage and impact analysis. Campaigns is specific to Infor CRM and Databases and Tables to Tableau — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Custom entities Deployment-specific objects added through the customizable entity model. Extract Refresh Tasks Scheduled extract refreshes; status and history read via REST, with DatasourceRefreshSucceeded and Failed events delivered by webhooks. Custom entities is specific to Infor CRM and Extract Refresh Tasks to Tableau — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Infor CRM and Tableau

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.

Infor CRM Tableau Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Infor CRM for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling on modified timestamps.

DeliveryTableau does not accept inbound record writes, so this direction carries requests rather than records: Tableau's output flows back as field updates on the originating Infor CRM records.

Tableau Infor CRM Sub-second propagation

DetectionTableau notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhooks fire on workbook and data source create/update/delete and extract refresh events.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Infor CRM: Subject to the deployment's configured API limits, which differ between on-premises and cloud installs.
  • Tableau: Tableau Cloud enforces per-site REST rate limits and returns HTTP 429; a PAT allows only one concurrent session and expires after 15 consecutive days of non-use.
