Why teams connect Sage X3 and TiDB

Give your engineers Sage X3's data in TiDB: 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 Business Partners (Customers and Suppliers), Products, Sales Orders, Purchase Orders from Sage X3 into TiDB 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 TiDB sync back into Sage X3 with its validations respected.

Common use cases

  • 01 Serve mixed transactional and analytical workloads on synced data using TiFlash columnar replicas
  • 02 Two-way sync between TiDB tables and SaaS tools so operational edits made in either system converge
  • 03 Push orders from e-commerce or EDI channels into X3 sales orders and return delivery status.
  • 04 Publish per-site stock levels to storefronts and a WMS on a schedule.

Common sync patterns

React to ERP changes

Updates in Sage X3 arrive as row changes in TiDB, so jobs and triggers can respond as the business record changes.

Where Sage X3 is the HR system of record: people data for internal systems

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

Controlled write-back

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

What you can sync between Sage X3 and TiDB

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.

Sage X3 objects TiDB objects How this pairing syncs
Sales Orders Order documents written from external channels and read for fulfillment status. Tables Row data stored in TiKV; the primary unit for reads, writes, and CDC. Sales Orders is specific to Sage X3 and Tables to TiDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Purchase Orders Procurement documents synced with supplier-facing systems. Views Logical views for shaping reads before syncing outward. Purchase Orders is specific to Sage X3 and Views to TiDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Work Orders Production orders read by MES and scheduling integrations. Columns MySQL-compatible types mapped to fields in the paired system. Work Orders is specific to Sage X3 and Columns to TiDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Stock / Inventory by site On-hand and allocated quantities per site, synced to storefronts and WMS. Indexes Secondary indexes that keep incremental sync queries efficient. Stock / Inventory by site is specific to Sage X3 and Indexes to TiDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Bills of Material Product structures read for planning and costing. Sequences Server-side ID generation relevant when external systems write rows. Bills of Material is specific to Sage X3 and Sequences to TiDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
GL Journals Financial entries replicated to warehouses for group reporting. Databases MySQL-style schemas addressed by any MySQL-compatible client. GL Journals is specific to Sage X3 and Databases to TiDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Sage X3 and TiDB

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.

Sage X3 TiDB Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Sage X3 for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Scheduled polling.

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

TiDB Sage X3 Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in TiDB are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. Log-based CDC via TiCDC, which captures row changes from TiKV and streams them to downstream sinks.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • TiDB: Throughput scales with cluster size rather than fixed API quotas.
