Why teams connect Rootstock ERP and Tableau

Put Rootstock ERP's records into Tableau as live data for reporting and dashboards, without nightly exports, and send the segments and metrics Tableau computes back where Rootstock ERP can use them.

Tableau is a read-only source: Stacksync reads its data in real time and delivers it into Rootstock ERP, so Rootstock ERP always reflects the current state of Tableau — without exports, scripts, or schedulers.

ERP data is some of the most requested data for analysis and some of the hardest to pull: the record types are many, the APIs are strict, and export jobs break on every upgrade. Whether Rootstock ERP carries financials, operations, workforce data, or all three, those numbers belong in Tableau, next to the product, behavioral, and web data the team already measures.

Common use cases

  • 01 Track Extract Refresh Tasks and DatasourceRefreshFailed webhook events to raise alerts in a database or ticketing system when refreshes fail.
  • 02 Read site Users and their site roles for periodic access reviews and to reconcile Tableau accounts against an HR or IdP source of record.
  • 03 Push confirmed sales orders to a 3PL or WMS and write shipment confirmations back to Rootstock.
  • 04 Replicate work order and inventory data to a Postgres database or warehouse for shop-floor and planning analytics.

Common sync patterns

Write-back where Rootstock ERP exposes writable fields: segments and scores return

Segments, scores, or metrics computed in Tableau sync onto the matching records in Rootstock ERP, so operations act on what the analysis found.

Where Rootstock ERP holds the books: revenue and finance dashboards from live data

Financial records from Rootstock ERP land in Tableau as they change, so revenue, margin, and spend dashboards read current figures rather than last night's export.

Where Rootstock ERP runs order-to-cash: customer and account analytics

Orders, invoices, and account records from Rootstock ERP join the behavioral and usage data Tableau already tracks, so customer analysis spans activity and dollars in one view.

What you can sync between Rootstock ERP and Tableau

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 Tableau objects How this pairing syncs
Bills of Material Multi-level product structures read for costing and planning integrations. Extract Refresh Tasks Scheduled extract refreshes; status and history read via REST, with DatasourceRefreshSucceeded and Failed events delivered by webhooks. Bills of Material is specific to Rootstock ERP and Extract Refresh Tasks to Tableau — 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. Fields and Columns Columns and calculated fields with their descriptions, exposed by the Metadata API; read to populate a data catalog with governed definitions. Inventory Balances is specific to Rootstock ERP and Fields and Columns to Tableau — 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. Published Data Sources Published data sources (.tdsx); their underlying rows are read via the VizQL Data Service, and refresh state is tracked through content webhooks. Receipts and Shipments is specific to Rootstock ERP and Published Data Sources to Tableau — 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. Workbooks Workbook content and metadata read via the REST and Metadata APIs; create, update, and delete events fire webhooks for change detection. Salesforce Accounts and Contacts is specific to Rootstock ERP and Workbooks to Tableau — 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. Views Worksheets and dashboards inside workbooks; their data and crosstab export as CSV via the REST query-view-data endpoint. Sales Orders is specific to Rootstock ERP and Views to Tableau — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Work Orders Manufacturing execution records synced to MES, scheduling, and analytics tools. Projects Folders that organize content and set permissions; listed via REST to mirror the site's content hierarchy into a catalog. Work Orders is specific to Rootstock ERP and Projects to Tableau — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Rootstock ERP and Tableau

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 Tableau 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).

DeliveryTableau does not accept inbound record writes, so this direction carries requests rather than records: Tableau's output flows back as field updates on the originating Rootstock ERP records.

Tableau Rootstock ERP Sub-second propagation

DetectionTableau notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhooks fire on workbook and data source create/update/delete and extract refresh events.

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.
  • Tableau: Tableau Cloud enforces per-site REST rate limits and returns HTTP 429; a PAT allows only one concurrent session and expires after 15 consecutive days of non-use.
