Why teams connect SAP Business ByDesign and SAP Hana

Give your engineers SAP Business ByDesign's data in SAP Hana: 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 Contacts, Sales Orders, Customer Invoices, Materials / Products from SAP Business ByDesign into SAP Hana 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 SAP Hana sync back into SAP Business ByDesign with its validations respected.

Common use cases

  • 01 Read SYS.TABLES and TABLE_COLUMNS system views to auto-discover schema and generate field mappings when new tables are added to the sync.
  • 02 Detect inserts, updates, and deletes on high-write tables via AFTER triggers or a last-modified column and replicate the deltas downstream near-real-time.
  • 03 Align the ByDesign material master with external product catalogs and inventory systems.
  • 04 Sync project and time data with external professional-services tools for billing.

Common sync patterns

Controlled write-back

Choose exactly which tables and fields may flow from SAP Hana back into SAP Business ByDesign, keeping the ERP authoritative.

Read ERP records with a query

Records from SAP Business ByDesign live in SAP Hana as ordinary tables or collections, joinable with the rest of your data.

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.

What you can sync between SAP Business ByDesign and SAP Hana

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.

SAP Business ByDesign objects SAP Hana objects How this pairing syncs
Materials / Products Item master data aligned with e-commerce and inventory systems. Calculation views Modeled analytic views over base tables; read-only sources for pushing aggregated or joined results into a warehouse or downstream app. Materials / Products is specific to SAP Business ByDesign and Calculation views to SAP Hana — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Purchase Orders Procurement documents exchanged with supplier systems. SQL views Standard database views; read-only projections synced outbound when the source data should not be exposed as raw base tables. Purchase Orders is specific to SAP Business ByDesign and SQL views to SAP Hana — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Opportunities Built-in CRM records synced with external sales tools when both are in use. Schemas Namespaces that group tables and views; the connector targets a schema and enumerates its objects from the catalog to build the sync. Opportunities is specific to SAP Business ByDesign and Schemas to SAP Hana — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Projects Project structures and tasks read for time and billing integrations. Sequences Server-generated key values; relevant when writing rows into tables whose identity is assigned HANA-side rather than by the source system. Projects is specific to SAP Business ByDesign and Sequences to SAP Hana — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Employees Worker records referenced by time, expense, and project data. Triggers AFTER INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE triggers capture changes into a shadow/logging table so updates and deletes are detected near-real-time without full scans. Employees is specific to SAP Business ByDesign and Triggers to SAP Hana — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Business Partners (Accounts) Customer and supplier master data synced with CRMs and procurement tools. System-versioned temporal tables Column store tables with a history table tracking each row's validity period; used to reconstruct update and delete history for change capture. Business Partners (Accounts) is specific to SAP Business ByDesign and System-versioned temporal tables to SAP Hana — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between SAP Business ByDesign and SAP Hana

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.

SAP Business ByDesign SAP Hana 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 applied to SAP Hana as a row-level write, with types converted between the two schemas.

SAP Hana SAP Business ByDesign Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in SAP Hana are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. Polling on a last-modified timestamp column, or AFTER INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE triggers writing to a shadow table.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • SAP Hana: No SaaS-style request quota; throughput is bounded by connection limits, statement memory caps, and workload-class admission control (concurrency/memory limits) that share capacity with production queries.
