Why teams connect Postgres Heroku and Sage X3

Give your engineers Sage X3's data in Postgres Heroku: read it with normal queries, write back through the sync, and skip the ERP API entirely.

ERP data sits behind interfaces built for the ERP's own modules, not for your internal systems. Teams that need those records, for reporting services, internal tools, or automations, end up writing integration code against a strict API and maintaining it through every upgrade.

Stacksync mirrors Products, Sales Orders, Purchase Orders, Work Orders from Sage X3 into Postgres Heroku and keeps both sides consistent in real time. Whatever Sage X3 is the system of record for, whether financials, operations, people, or procurement, those records become rows your code can query, and changes written in Postgres Heroku sync back into Sage X3 with its validations respected.

Common use cases

  • 01 Keep several Heroku app databases aligned with one system of record
  • 02 Reflect billing and subscription records into the app database so product logic reads local rows
  • 03 Feed work order and BOM data to MES or planning tools on the shop floor.
  • 04 Sync business partners and products between Sage X3 and a CRM so global sales teams quote from current ERP masters.

Common sync patterns

Controlled write-back

Choose exactly which tables and fields may flow from Postgres Heroku back into Sage X3, keeping the ERP authoritative.

Read ERP records with a query

Records from Sage X3 live in Postgres Heroku as ordinary tables or collections, joinable with the rest of your data.

Internal tools and automations without API code

Scripts and services read and write the synced tables; Stacksync handles the Sage X3 interface, limits, and retries.

What you can sync between Postgres Heroku 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.

Postgres Heroku objects Sage X3 objects How this pairing syncs
Follower Databases Heroku-managed read replicas usable as low-impact sync sources. Bills of Material Product structures read for planning and costing. Follower Databases is specific to Postgres Heroku and Bills of Material to Sage X3 — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Tables Standard Postgres tables; the primary two-way sync target for app data. GL Journals Financial entries replicated to warehouses for group reporting. Tables is specific to Postgres Heroku and GL Journals to Sage X3 — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Views Read-side projections exposed to outbound syncs. Deliveries Shipment documents synced to logistics providers and customer portals. Views is specific to Postgres Heroku and Deliveries to Sage X3 — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Materialized Views Precomputed result sets synced outward on refresh. Business Partners (Customers and Suppliers) Shared partner master synced with CRMs and procurement systems. Materialized Views is specific to Postgres Heroku and Business Partners (Customers and Suppliers) to Sage X3 — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Schemas Namespaces that scope which tables a sync reads and writes. Products Item master with units, costing, and site data, synced to commerce and PLM tools. Schemas is specific to Postgres Heroku and Products to Sage X3 — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Primary and Unique Keys Match keys for idempotent upserts from connected systems. Sales Orders Order documents written from external channels and read for fulfillment status. Primary and Unique Keys is specific to Postgres Heroku and Sales Orders to Sage X3 — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Postgres Heroku 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.

Postgres Heroku Sage X3 Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Postgres Heroku for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Trigger-based capture or polling in most configurations.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Postgres Heroku: No API rate limits; connection counts and performance are bounded by the Heroku Postgres plan.
