Why teams connect Salesforce and SAP Business ByDesign

Close the gap between front office and back office: Salesforce and SAP Business ByDesign share customers and status in real time, in both directions.

Salesforce holds the customer relationship; SAP Business ByDesign runs the operations and records behind the business. The two overlap wherever the same organizations and transactions matter to both, and when that overlap is bridged by re-keying or overnight batch, each side spends the day working from stale data.

Stacksync syncs Opportunities, Cases, Campaigns, Tasks and Events in Salesforce with Opportunities, Projects, Employees, Business Partners (Accounts) in SAP Business ByDesign field by field, in real time, and in both directions. You decide which system owns which fields; Stacksync keeps every copy consistent and resolves conflicts by rules you set.

Common use cases

  • 01 Sync Accounts, Contacts, and Opportunities bi-directionally with Postgres so engineering teams read and write CRM data with plain SQL.
  • 02 Write product usage metrics computed in a warehouse onto Account and Contact fields so reps see adoption signals on the record.
  • 03 Create sales orders in ByDesign from e-commerce or CPQ systems and sync order and delivery status back.
  • 04 Replicate customer invoices into a reporting database or collections tool without manual exports.

Common sync patterns

Where SAP Business ByDesign is the finance system of record: money status on the account

Invoice and payment state from SAP Business ByDesign shows on the account in Salesforce, so reps see balances before promising the next order.

One customer master

Where both systems keep customer or organization records, corrections in either propagate to the other, ending dual maintenance.

Where SAP Business ByDesign manages people and org data: keep Salesforce aligned

Owners, territories, and org structure informed by SAP Business ByDesign stay current in Salesforce.

What you can sync between Salesforce 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.

Salesforce objects SAP Business ByDesign objects How this pairing syncs
Contacts People linked to Accounts; synced two-way with marketing, support, and warehouse person records. Contacts Person records linked to accounts, aligned with CRM contact objects. Same entity on both sides — records pair one-to-one and field-level changes reconcile in both directions.
Opportunities Deal records with stage and amount; synced to databases for pipeline reporting and to ERPs at close. Opportunities Built-in CRM records synced with external sales tools when both are in use. Same entity on both sides — records pair one-to-one and field-level changes reconcile in both directions.
Custom Objects Org-specific tables with the __c suffix; discoverable via describe metadata so field mappings can be generated. Materials / Products Item master data aligned with e-commerce and inventory systems. Custom Objects is specific to Salesforce and Materials / Products to SAP Business ByDesign — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Accounts Company records that anchor most syncs; typically mapped to customer tables in a database or ERP. Purchase Orders Procurement documents exchanged with supplier systems. Accounts is specific to Salesforce and Purchase Orders to SAP Business ByDesign — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Leads Unqualified prospects; often written into Salesforce from enrichment or product-signup pipelines. Projects Project structures and tasks read for time and billing integrations. Leads is specific to Salesforce and Projects to SAP Business ByDesign — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Cases Support records; synced with help desk tools or internal databases for escalation workflows. Employees Worker records referenced by time, expense, and project data. Cases is specific to Salesforce and Employees to SAP Business ByDesign — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Salesforce 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.

Salesforce SAP Business ByDesign Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in Salesforce are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. Apex triggers are used whenever possible (Salesforce actively notifies Stacksync via an Apex trigger + callout class + remote site setting).

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

SAP Business ByDesign Salesforce 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.
