Why teams connect Microsoft Dynamics NAV and MotherDuck

Put Microsoft Dynamics NAV's records in MotherDuck as live tables for reporting and analysis, without extract jobs, and write results back where Microsoft Dynamics NAV can use them.

ERP data is some of the most asked-for data in the warehouse and some of the hardest to get: the record types are many, the APIs are strict, and extract jobs are brittle. Whether Microsoft Dynamics NAV carries financials, operations, workforce data, or all three, the analysis belongs in MotherDuck next to everything else the company measures.

Stacksync syncs Purchase Orders, G/L Entries, Item Ledger Entries, Dimensions from Microsoft Dynamics NAV into tables in MotherDuck continuously, managing API limits and schema drift along the way. The connection is bi-directional, so values computed in MotherDuck can be written back to fields in Microsoft Dynamics NAV where that is useful.

Common use cases

  • 01 Land CRM and operational database records in MotherDuck so a small team gets warehouse-style analytics without cluster management
  • 02 Sync modeled MotherDuck tables outward to operational tools for activation
  • 03 Push ecommerce orders into NAV sales orders through published page services.
  • 04 Replicate G/L and ledger entries into a warehouse for consolidated finance reporting.

Common sync patterns

Where Microsoft Dynamics NAV holds the books: finance reporting from live data

Financial records land in MotherDuck as they change, so period-end reporting queries current numbers rather than last night's extract.

Where Microsoft Dynamics NAV is the HR system of record: workforce analytics

Worker and organization data syncs into MotherDuck for headcount, cost, and planning analysis alongside other company data.

Where Microsoft Dynamics NAV runs operations: order and supply analysis

Operational records become queryable tables in MotherDuck, joinable with sales and finance data.

How changes propagate between Microsoft Dynamics NAV and MotherDuck

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.

Microsoft Dynamics NAV MotherDuck Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in Microsoft Dynamics NAV are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. Polling on modified/timestamp fields, or SQL Server change tracking/CDC on on-premises databases.

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

MotherDuck Microsoft Dynamics NAV Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls MotherDuck for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling.

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