Why teams connect MySQL and Servicemax

Mirror Servicemax's data into MySQL so your own code can read and write it like any other table, with changes flowing both ways in seconds.

Engineers integrate with tools like Servicemax through APIs, which means auth, pagination, rate limits, webhooks, and retry logic, all maintained forever and all different for every tool. Meanwhile the data would be trivial to use if it simply lived in MySQL.

Stacksync mirrors Cases, Products, Work Orders, Work Details from Servicemax into Columns, Primary and Unique Keys, JSON Columns, Stored Procedures in MySQL and keeps both sides in sync in real time. Your services query the database directly, and inserts or updates your code makes flow back into Servicemax, so the tool and the database never disagree.

Common use cases

  • 01 Mirror Accounts and Contacts between ServiceMax and the CRM system of record so customer and site data stays consistent.
  • 02 Sync Work Orders (SVMXC__Service_Order__c) and Work Details bi-directionally with Postgres so ops and analytics teams read and write field-service data in plain SQL.
  • 03 Two-way sync between a MySQL application database and a CRM so operational records and sales records stay identical
  • 04 Expose SaaS objects as MySQL tables so legacy internal tools built on MySQL can read live business data

Common sync patterns

Automate Servicemax from your codebase

Write to the synced tables in MySQL and Stacksync propagates the change into Servicemax, replacing custom integration code.

React to changes as they happen

Updates in Servicemax arrive as row changes in MySQL, so triggers, jobs, and services can respond in near real time.

One integration pattern for the whole stack

Every synced tool looks the same from the database, so each new integration is configuration, not a new codebase.

What you can sync between MySQL and Servicemax

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.

MySQL objects Servicemax objects How this pairing syncs
Primary and Unique Keys Match keys for idempotent upserts and conflict handling. Service Contracts SVMXC__Service_Contract__c; coverage and entitlement agreements; synced to warehouses for renewal, SLA, and warranty reporting. Primary and Unique Keys is specific to MySQL and Service Contracts to Servicemax — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
JSON Columns Validated semi-structured payloads for nested SaaS data. Stock History SVMXC__Stock_History__c; append-only log of inventory transactions (RMA, shipment, parts receipt); read out for parts and inventory analytics. JSON Columns is specific to MySQL and Stock History to Servicemax — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Stored Procedures Server-side logic that can post-process synced rows. Accounts Standard Salesforce Account; customer and site company records; synced two-way with CRM and database customer tables. Stored Procedures is specific to MySQL and Accounts to Servicemax — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Triggers An alternative change-capture mechanism when binlog access is unavailable. Contacts Standard Salesforce Contact; people linked to Accounts and service sites; synced with CRM and support person records. Triggers is specific to MySQL and Contacts to Servicemax — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Databases (Schemas) Top-level namespaces that scope a sync's reads and writes. Cases Standard Salesforce Case; support records that often precede a Work Order; synced with help desk tools and reporting databases. Databases (Schemas) is specific to MySQL and Cases to Servicemax — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Tables The primary sync target; rows map to records in connected systems. Products Standard Salesforce Product2; catalog of serviceable products and spare parts referenced by Installed Products and Work Details. Tables is specific to MySQL and Products to Servicemax — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between MySQL and Servicemax

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.

MySQL Servicemax Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in MySQL are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. Database triggers — Stacksync creates deterministic triggers for internal logging and syncing (requires log_bin_trust_function_creators=ON when.

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

Servicemax MySQL Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in Servicemax are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. Salesforce mechanisms — Apex triggers or polling on SystemModstamp/LastModifiedDate, with Change Data Capture / Platform Events available per object.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • MySQL: No API rate limits; throughput is bounded by connection limits and server resources.
  • Servicemax: Governed by the Salesforce org-wide daily API request allocation, shared across all integrations and scaled by edition and license count.
