Why teams connect Reltio and SAP Business ByDesign

Give your engineers SAP Business ByDesign's data in Reltio: 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 Projects, Employees, Business Partners (Accounts), Contacts from SAP Business ByDesign into Reltio and keeps both sides consistent in real time. Whatever SAP Business ByDesign is the system of record for, whether financials, operations, people, or procurement, those records become rows your code can query, and changes written in Reltio sync back into SAP Business ByDesign with its validations respected.

Common use cases

  • 01 Push cleansed, deduplicated golden records and survivorship results from Reltio back into CRM and ERP systems so every app works from the mastered record.
  • 02 Sync Relations (affiliations, hierarchies, households) between Reltio and a CRM or graph so account and affiliation structures stay aligned.
  • 03 Sync project and time data with external professional-services tools for billing.
  • 04 Sync ByDesign accounts and contacts with an external CRM so sales works outside the ERP while finance keeps the master record.

Common sync patterns

Internal tools and automations without API code

Scripts and services read and write the synced tables; Stacksync handles the SAP Business ByDesign interface, limits, and retries.

React to ERP changes

Updates in SAP Business ByDesign arrive as row changes in Reltio, so jobs and triggers can respond as the business record changes.

Where SAP Business ByDesign is the HR system of record: people data for internal systems

Worker and org records stay current in Reltio for provisioning, access, and reporting systems that read from the database.

What you can sync between Reltio and SAP Business ByDesign

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.

Reltio objects SAP Business ByDesign objects How this pairing syncs
Relations Typed relationships between two entities (affiliations, hierarchies, employment, households); read and written via /relations to keep account hierarchies and affiliation graphs aligned across systems. Opportunities Built-in CRM records synced with external sales tools when both are in use. Relations is specific to Reltio and Opportunities to SAP Business ByDesign — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Crosswalks Per-entity references to the source systems and their record IDs; written when loading records so Reltio ties each source contribution to a golden record, and read to trace lineage back to origin systems. Projects Project structures and tasks read for time and billing integrations. Crosswalks is specific to Reltio and Projects to SAP Business ByDesign — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Interactions Transactional or event records linked to entities (purchases, visits, activities); read and written via /interactions to enrich profiles and power 360-degree reporting. Employees Worker records referenced by time, expense, and project data. Interactions is specific to Reltio and Employees to SAP Business ByDesign — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Matches (Potential Matches) Candidate duplicate pairs produced by match rules; read to review, and resolved with merge, unmerge, or not-a-match actions to control survivorship. Business Partners (Accounts) Customer and supplier master data synced with CRMs and procurement tools. Matches (Potential Matches) is specific to Reltio and Business Partners (Accounts) to SAP Business ByDesign — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Activity Log Immutable audit trail of changes to entities and relations via /activities; read-only, used for history, lineage, and compliance reporting. Contacts Person records linked to accounts, aligned with CRM contact objects. Activity Log is specific to Reltio and Contacts to SAP Business ByDesign — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Data Change Requests (DCR) Stewardship change proposals routed through approval workflows; read and written to feed or track governed edits to golden records. Sales Orders Order documents created from external channels and read for status. Data Change Requests (DCR) is specific to Reltio and Sales Orders to SAP Business ByDesign — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Reltio and SAP Business ByDesign

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.

Reltio SAP Business ByDesign Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Reltio for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling the REST API on updateTime (epoch-ms), for example filter=gt(updateTime,<timestamp>), for entities and relations changed past a stored.

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

SAP Business ByDesign Reltio Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls SAP Business ByDesign for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling on last-changed timestamps.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Reltio: Reltio applies per-tenant API throttling and returns HTTP 429 (Too Many Requests) when limits are exceeded; there is no single fixed request-per-second cap published for all tenants, and throttling is tuned per tenant and environment. Large loads and reads use bulk create/update and the asynchronous export/jobs API rather than row-by-row calls.

How the Reltio and SAP Business ByDesign connectors work

Reltio

Integration surface
Reltio REST API (Data API) — /entities, /relations, /interactions, /activities, plus Match, RDM (reference data), and Data Change Request endpoints; base URL https://{environment}.reltio.com/reltio/api/{tenantId}
Authentication
OAuth 2.0 bearer tokens obtained from Reltio's central auth server (POST https://auth.reltio.com/oauth/token, client-credentials or password grant, application/x-www-form-urlencoded) and sent as Authorization: Bearer <token>; access tokens expire after about 60 minutes and are renewed with a refresh token, and are scoped per API (entities_api, relations_api, interactions_api, configuration_api, graphs_api)
Change detection
Polling the REST API on updateTime (epoch-ms), for example filter=gt(updateTime,<timestamp>), for entities and relations changed past a stored watermark. Reltio has no CDC log external tools consume; separately, Reltio's event streaming can publish entity change events (created, changed, removed) to a customer-configured message queue (Amazon SQS/SNS, Google Pub/Sub, Azure Service Bus, or Kafka), which is a queue feed rather than HTTP webhooks.
