Why teams connect Rootstock ERP and Salesforce Marketing Cloud

Feed the real customer, order, and revenue records from Rootstock ERP into Salesforce Marketing Cloud so campaigns run on who actually bought what, and let contact and consent changes flow back in real time.

Marketing runs on lists of people, but the list rarely knows which of those people are paying customers, what they ordered, or what they are worth. Rootstock ERP holds exactly that: Sales Orders, Work Orders, Purchase Orders, Items / Products that record who the customer is, what they bought, and what they owe. When the two are joined only by a periodic export, campaigns go out against stale audiences, existing customers get prospecting emails, high-value accounts look the same as cold leads, and a canceled order still counts toward a segment.

Stacksync syncs Sales Orders, Work Orders, Purchase Orders, Items / Products in Rootstock ERP with Contacts / Subscribers, Journeys (Journey Builder), Content Assets (Content Builder), Automations (Automation Studio) in Salesforce Marketing Cloud in real time, and where both sides accept writes, in both directions. Customer, order, and invoice data maps field by field onto the contacts, audiences, or accounts Salesforce Marketing Cloud works with, so segmentation and personalization run on current purchase history instead of a month-old snapshot. Contact details and consent changes that originate in Salesforce Marketing Cloud flow back onto the record in Rootstock ERP.

The strongest bridge between the two is identity and purchase history, who the customer is and what they have bought, so that is where most of the value sits. Because the sync is field-level, each system keeps the attributes the other has no use for; only the shared records are held in agreement.

Common use cases

  • 01 Replicate work order and inventory data to a Postgres database or warehouse for shop-floor and planning analytics.
  • 02 Sync inventory availability by site to e-commerce storefronts so promised dates reflect real stock.
  • 03 Two-way sync Data Extension rows between Marketing Cloud and a Postgres database or warehouse so audience attributes and opt-out state stay aligned in both systems.
  • 04 Push CRM or warehouse audience segments into Data Extensions via the async rows API (background bulk insert) so marketing sends to freshly built audiences without manual CSV imports.

Common sync patterns

Where Salesforce Marketing Cloud captures new people: signups become customer records

Registrations, form fills, or new subscribers in Salesforce Marketing Cloud create or update the corresponding record in Rootstock ERP, so the back office sees them without anyone re-keying.

Consent and contact changes travel

Email, address, or subscription-status changes stay aligned across both systems, so a customer who updates their details or opts out is respected everywhere.

Purchase history drives segmentation

Orders, invoices, and revenue totals from Rootstock ERP land on the matching contact or account in Salesforce Marketing Cloud, so audiences are built from what customers actually bought and spent rather than from guesses.

What you can sync between Rootstock ERP and Salesforce Marketing Cloud

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.

Rootstock ERP objects Salesforce Marketing Cloud objects How this pairing syncs
Items / Products The manufacturing item master, kept aligned with e-commerce and PLM systems. Content Assets (Content Builder) Emails, templates, images, and reusable content blocks stored in Content Builder and read or written via /asset/v1/content/assets, used to compose the messages a journey or send delivers. Items / Products is specific to Rootstock ERP and Content Assets (Content Builder) to Salesforce Marketing Cloud — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Bills of Material Multi-level product structures read for costing and planning integrations. Automations (Automation Studio) Scheduled or triggered workflows of import, query, extract, and send activities managed via /automation/v1/automations; SQL Query Activities read Data Views and write results into Data Extensions. Bills of Material is specific to Rootstock ERP and Automations (Automation Studio) to Salesforce Marketing Cloud — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Inventory Balances On-hand quantities by site and location, synced to storefronts and WMS. Tracking Events Sent, Open, Click, Bounce, Unsubscribe, and NotSent events retrieved through the SOAP tracking objects (SentEvent, OpenEvent, ClickEvent, BounceEvent) or the Automation Studio Data Views (_Sent, _Open, _Click, _Bounce) - the queryable record of engagement per send. Inventory Balances is specific to Rootstock ERP and Tracking Events to Salesforce Marketing Cloud — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Receipts and Shipments Inbound and outbound transactions synced to logistics and 3PL systems. Transactional Sends Triggered and transactional Email/SMS delivered through the Messaging API (/messaging/v1/email/messages/{key}); the Event Notification Service reports each message's disposition (delivered, bounced, opened, clicked). Receipts and Shipments is specific to Rootstock ERP and Transactional Sends to Salesforce Marketing Cloud — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Salesforce Accounts and Contacts Shared CRM masters in the same org, so customer data needs no separate ERP sync. Data Extensions Custom relational tables that store subscriber, audience, and arbitrary business data; rows are read via GET /data/v1/customobjectdata or SOAP Retrieve and upserted via the synchronous rowset PUT or the async /data/v1/async/dataextensions rows endpoint. This is the primary two-way surface. Salesforce Accounts and Contacts is specific to Rootstock ERP and Data Extensions to Salesforce Marketing Cloud — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Sales Orders Order headers and lines synced to fulfillment, invoicing, and reporting systems. Contacts / Subscribers The contact model keyed by Subscriber Key, holding channel addresses and subscription status; managed through the Contacts API (/contacts/v1/contacts) and the SOAP Subscriber object, and referenced by every send and journey. Sales Orders is specific to Rootstock ERP and Contacts / Subscribers to Salesforce Marketing Cloud — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Rootstock ERP and Salesforce Marketing Cloud

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.

Rootstock ERP Salesforce Marketing Cloud Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in Rootstock ERP are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. Salesforce Change Data Capture on Rootstock custom objects where enabled (entity selection limits apply).

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

Salesforce Marketing Cloud Rootstock ERP Sub-second propagation

DetectionSalesforce Marketing Cloud notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. The Event Notification Service (ENS) issues HTTPS POST callbacks for transactional Email and SMS events (sent, bounce, open, click) once a callback.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Rootstock ERP: Consumes the Salesforce org's daily API request allocation, shared with other integrations.
  • Salesforce Marketing Cloud: Salesforce does not publish fixed numeric REST rate limits; requests are throttled per account and can return HTTP 429, so backoff is advised. SOAP Retrieve returns at most 2,500 records per call and pages via ContinueRequest with the prior RequestID. Bulk Data Extension writes use the async rows API to queue inserts in the background.

Salesforce Marketing Cloud

Integration surface
Two APIs on tenant-specific endpoints: a REST API (JSON over HTTPS) for Data Extensions, Journeys, Contacts, Content Builder, and Automations, plus a legacy SOAP API (ExactTarget WSDL) for tracking events and bulk Retrieve.
Authentication
OAuth 2.0 via an Installed Package (Client ID + Client Secret). Server-to-server uses the client_credentials grant and web apps use authorization_code, both against {subdomain}.auth.marketingcloudapis.com/v2/token. The 20-minute access token response also returns the account's rest_instance_url and soap_instance_url.
Change detection
The Event Notification Service (ENS) issues HTTPS POST callbacks for transactional Email and SMS events (sent, bounce, open, click) once a callback URL and subscription are registered and verified. There is no general data-change feed, so Data Extension and Data View syncs poll by date fields.
