Why teams connect Anaplan and SAP Business ByDesign

Keep Anaplan and SAP Business ByDesign agreeing on customers, invoices, and balances, whether they split the finance workload or one is replacing the other.

A dedicated finance tool and an ERP end up side by side for practical reasons: a subsidiary runs lighter software than headquarters, billing runs in a specialist system while the enterprise system holds the wider view, or the company is mid-migration and both are live. Whatever the split, the two systems describe overlapping customers and transactions, and that overlap drifts without a live connection.

Stacksync syncs Models, Modules, Line Items, Lists in Anaplan with Materials / Products, Purchase Orders, Opportunities, Projects in SAP Business ByDesign in real time and in both directions. You decide which system wins on which field, and every change made in one is reflected in the other within seconds instead of at the next batch run.

Common use cases

  • Load actuals from an ERP or warehouse into Anaplan modules so forecasts start from current financials.
  • Sync CRM pipeline data into Anaplan for sales capacity and quota planning.
  • Sync ByDesign accounts and contacts with an external CRM so sales works outside the ERP while finance keeps the master record.
  • Create sales orders in ByDesign from e-commerce or CPQ systems and sync order and delivery status back.

Subsidiary to headquarters

Where Anaplan serves a business unit and SAP Business ByDesign is the group system, transactions and customer records roll up continuously, so consolidation starts from live data.

Migration without a hard cutover

When one system is replacing the other, run both in parallel with records matching until the switch is complete.

One customer and vendor master

Where both systems keep records of the same organizations, corrections made in either propagate to the other.
