Why teams connect Recurly and Servicemax

Connect the financial records in Recurly with the work happening in Servicemax, so both stay current without exports or copy-paste.

Recurly holds the financial truth: who the customers are, what they were billed, what they paid. Servicemax is where part of the day-to-day work happens, and that work often involves the same customers and transactions. Without a live connection, the two drift apart, and people end up answering questions from stale copies.

Stacksync keeps Invoices, Transactions, Line Items, Coupons and Redemptions in Recurly and Stock History, Accounts, Contacts, Cases in Servicemax in sync, bi-directionally and in real time. Whatever records Servicemax keeps and whatever events it produces, the overlap with Recurly is mapped field by field, and a change on either side shows up on the other within seconds.

There is no middleware to build, no API rate limits to babysit, and no nightly job that leaves the morning running on yesterday's data.

Common use cases

  • 01 Trigger revenue-recognition or ERP entries when new_subscription and canceled_subscription webhooks fire.
  • 02 Post usage records to Measured Units on metered Subscriptions from a metering database before each bill run.
  • 03 Mirror Accounts and Contacts between ServiceMax and the CRM system of record so customer and site data stays consistent.
  • 04 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.

Common sync patterns

Where Servicemax handles customer conversations: billing context in view

Front-line teams see invoice and payment status from Recurly next to the customer they are helping, without logging into the finance system.

Where Servicemax collects payments or triggers charges: events land in Recurly

Payment and charge activity flows into Recurly as it happens, so the books reflect reality without manual reconciliation.

Where Servicemax tracks people or companies: one identity

A customer's details updated in either system update the other, so finance and the rest of the business stop maintaining two versions of the same customer.

What you can sync between Recurly 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.

Recurly objects Servicemax objects How this pairing syncs
Accounts Customer/billing entity records keyed by account_code; the anchor most subscriptions and invoices hang off. Synced two-way with CRM accounts or a customer database. Accounts Standard Salesforce Account; customer and site company records; synced two-way with CRM and database customer tables. Same entity on both sides — records pair one-to-one and field-level changes reconcile in both directions. Custom fields on either side are included in the mapping.
Measured Units and Usage Metered-billing units; usage records are posted to a subscription before each bill run for consumption-based pricing. Service Contracts SVMXC__Service_Contract__c; coverage and entitlement agreements; synced to warehouses for renewal, SLA, and warranty reporting. Measured Units and Usage is specific to Recurly and Service Contracts to Servicemax — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Subscriptions Recurring subscription records tied to an Account and a Plan, with state, term, and next-bill date. Core object, synced two-way to drive provisioning and reporting. Stock History SVMXC__Stock_History__c; append-only log of inventory transactions (RMA, shipment, parts receipt); read out for parts and inventory analytics. Subscriptions is specific to Recurly and Stock History to Servicemax — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Plans The product and pricing catalog (plan codes, intervals, add-ons); usually mastered in Recurly and read out, or mirrored from a product database. Contacts Standard Salesforce Contact; people linked to Accounts and service sites; synced with CRM and support person records. Plans is specific to Recurly and Contacts to Servicemax — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Invoices Charge and credit billing documents; read-heavy for revenue reporting, and creatable through Purchases for one-off charges. Cases Standard Salesforce Case; support records that often precede a Work Order; synced with help desk tools and reporting databases. Invoices is specific to Recurly and Cases to Servicemax — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Transactions Individual payment attempts — captures, refunds, and voids; typically read into a warehouse for reconciliation and dunning analysis. Products Standard Salesforce Product2; catalog of serviceable products and spare parts referenced by Installed Products and Work Details. Transactions is specific to Recurly and Products to Servicemax — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Recurly 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.

Recurly Servicemax Sub-second propagation

DetectionRecurly notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhooks (JSON or XML, one format per endpoint) for account, subscription, payment, and invoice events, plus incremental polling of list endpoints.

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

Servicemax Recurly 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 written to Recurly through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Rate-limit considerations

  • Recurly: Production sites default to 1,000 requests/min with only GET requests counting toward the limit; sandbox sites 400/min with all requests counting; the limit is a sliding 5-minute window, X-RateLimit headers report the quota, and breaches return HTTP 429.
  • Servicemax: Governed by the Salesforce org-wide daily API request allocation, shared across all integrations and scaled by edition and license count.
