Why teams connect Anaplan and Close

Sync customers, invoices, and payment status between Anaplan and Close in real time, so sales sees the money and finance sees the relationship.

Finance and sales describe the same customers in different systems. Close knows the relationship: who the contacts are and what is in motion with the account. Anaplan knows the money: what was invoiced, what was paid, what is overdue. When the two are connected only by exports, each side works partly blind.

Stacksync links Import and Export Actions, Processes, Cell Data, Models in Anaplan to Custom Fields, Users, Smart Views, Leads in Close with bi-directional, real-time sync. New customers, updated billing details, invoice status, and payment activity move in whichever direction you configure, field by field, with conflicts resolved by rules you set. The result is one version of each customer, visible from both sides.

Common use cases

  • Sync CRM pipeline data into Anaplan for sales capacity and quota planning.
  • Push approved plan and target numbers from Anaplan back to the CRM or compensation systems.
  • Sync Close leads and opportunities into Postgres or a warehouse for pipeline reporting outside Close's built-in reports.
  • Two-way sync between Close and a billing or ERP system so closed-won opportunities create customers and invoices automatically.

Where Close tracks deals: closed-won creates the finance record

A won opportunity creates or updates the customer in Anaplan with the right billing details, so invoicing starts without re-keying.

Collections with context

Finance sees the account owner and relationship history from Close when chasing a balance, and sales sees that the chase is happening.

What you can sync between Anaplan and Close

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.

Anaplan objects Close objects
Import and Export Actions Predefined data-movement definitions the Bulk API executes. Users Sales reps referenced as owners on leads, opportunities, and activities.
Processes Ordered bundles of actions run as a unit during scheduled syncs. Smart Views Saved lead searches that can scope which records a segment-based sync pulls.
Cell Data Individual intersections readable and writable through the transactional API. Leads The top-level record in Close; represents a company and holds its contacts, opportunities, and activity history.
