Why teams connect Notion and SAP Business ByDesign

Bridge the tools people work in and the system the business runs on: real-time, two-way sync between Notion and SAP Business ByDesign.

The ERP holds the records the business is run on, and it is rarely where day-to-day work happens. Notion is closer to the work, and the two often need the same facts about the same people, organizations, and transactions. Bridging them by hand, or by nightly file transfer, leaves each side out of date for hours at a time.

Stacksync syncs Pages, Databases / Data sources, Properties, Blocks in Notion with Business Partners (Accounts), Contacts, Sales Orders, Customer Invoices in SAP Business ByDesign bi-directionally and in real time, with field-level mapping and rules for which system wins on conflict. Changes made where the work happens reach the system of record within seconds, and the reverse.

Common use cases

  • 01 Two-way sync a Notion projects or tasks data source with a Postgres table so engineers work in SQL while the team edits Pages in Notion, mapping status, date, and assignee properties both ways.
  • 02 Push rows from a warehouse or another database into a Notion data source as Pages so ops and leadership read live metrics in a familiar Notion view.
  • 03 Replicate customer invoices into a reporting database or collections tool without manual exports.
  • 04 Align the ByDesign material master with external product catalogs and inventory systems.

Common sync patterns

Where SAP Business ByDesign is the HR or people system of record

Worker and organization data from SAP Business ByDesign stays current in Notion, so the tools people use daily reflect the org as it actually is.

Master data corrections travel

A customer, supplier, or contact detail corrected in either system updates the other, ending duplicate maintenance.

Where Notion faces customers and SAP Business ByDesign carries account records

Order, invoice, or account status from SAP Business ByDesign appears alongside the customer in Notion, so front-line teams answer from live data.
