Why teams connect Anaplan and SQL Server
Work with Anaplan's financial data straight from SQL Server: read it with ordinary queries, write to it from your own code, and let Stacksync keep both sides consistent.
Engineers need finance data more often than finance systems make it easy to get: for internal tools, reporting services, or logic that reacts to invoices and payments. Working through the vendor API means rate limits, pagination, and glue code that has to be maintained forever.
Stacksync mirrors Import and Export Actions, Processes, Cell Data, Models from Anaplan into Databases, Schemas, Tables, Views in SQL Server and keeps the two in sync bi-directionally and in real time. Your services read finance records with normal queries against SQL Server, and rows your code writes or updates flow back into Anaplan with validation, so the finance system stays the system of record.
Common use cases
- Push approved plan and target numbers from Anaplan back to the CRM or compensation systems.
- Keep dimension lists (products, cost centers, territories) aligned with master data systems of record.
- Expose SaaS records as SQL Server tables that existing SSRS reports and internal apps can query
- Mirror on-premises ERP data held in SQL Server into cloud CRM and support systems
Query finance data like any other data
Customers, invoices, and payments from Anaplan live in SQL Server as regular tables or collections your team can join, index, and query.
Internal tools without API plumbing
Build dashboards and back-office tools directly on SQL Server; Stacksync handles the API calls, rate limits, and retries against Anaplan.
Write back safely
Updates written to the synced tables in SQL Server propagate into Anaplan, so automations can create or correct finance records without custom integration code.
What you can sync between Anaplan and SQL Server
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 | SQL Server objects | |
|---|---|---|
| Modules Multidimensional grids of line items where plan data lives; the main read/write surface. | Databases Instance-level databases that scope a sync's reads and writes. | |
| Line Items The measures within a module, mapped to columns or metrics in syncs. | Schemas Namespaces (dbo and custom) used to organize synced tables. | |
| Lists Dimension members (accounts, products, cost centers) synced from master data systems. | Tables The primary sync target; rows map to records in connected systems. | |
| List Items Individual dimension members created or updated from external systems of record. | Views Read-side projections used as outbound sync sources. | |
| Versions Scenario dimensions (actual, budget, forecast) that scope which slice a sync reads or writes. | Columns Field-level mapping targets with T-SQL types. | |
| Import and Export Actions Predefined data-movement definitions the Bulk API executes. | Primary and Unique Keys Match keys for idempotent upserts and conflict handling. |

How the Anaplan and SQL Server connectors work
Anaplan
- Integration surface
- REST APIs: a Bulk API that runs predefined import/export actions and a transactional API for model metadata and cell data
- Authentication
- Token-based sessions obtained via basic authentication, CA certificates, or OAuth 2.0 through Anaplan's authentication service
- Change detection
- Polling and scheduled export actions; the platform does not expose change events
- Capabilities
- read · write
- Rate limits
- Subject to the platform's API rate limits; large data movements are designed to run through bulk actions
SQL Server
- Integration surface
- SQL over the TDS wire protocol (Tabular Data Stream), via ODBC/JDBC/ADO.NET drivers
- Authentication
- Database credentials entered as a connection string or as parameters (host/user/password) in the Create New Sync page
- Change detection
- SQL Server Native Change Data Capture (CDC); a DBA runs a one-time setup script with sysadmin privileges to enable CDC and create Stacksync wrapper procedures
- Capabilities
- read · write · CDC
- Rate limits
- No API rate limits; throughput depends on instance resources, licensing tier, and connection limits
How it works

FAQ
Anaplan and SQL Server integration FAQ
-
Yes. Stacksync provides a managed, real-time two-way integration between Anaplan and SQL Server: authenticate both systems, choose the objects to sync (such as Anaplan's Modules and Line Items), map fields visually, and changes propagate both ways in milliseconds — no code required.
-
Yes. Each object mapping can be bidirectional or restricted to a single direction (both systems accept writes). Read-only mirrors, one-way pushes, and full two-way sync can be mixed in the same integration.

Common patterns for Anaplan and SQL Server: Query finance data like any other data; Internal tools without API plumbing; Write back safely. Customers, invoices, and payments from Anaplan live in SQL Server as regular tables or collections your team can join, index, and query.
-
Anaplan: REST APIs: a Bulk API that runs predefined import/export actions and a transactional API for model metadata and cell data. Authentication: Token-based sessions obtained via basic authentication, CA certificates, or OAuth 2.0 through Anaplan's authentication service. SQL Server: SQL over the TDS wire protocol (Tabular Data Stream), via ODBC/JDBC/ADO.NET drivers. Authentication: Database credentials entered as a connection string or as parameters (host/user/password) in the Create New Sync page. Stacksync manages authentication, retries, and rate limits on both sides.
-
Anaplan: Data movement at volume goes through predefined import and export actions executed by the Bulk API, so integrations depend on actions defined inside the model. SQL Server: Native Change Data Capture reads inserts, updates, and deletes from the transaction log into change tables without touching application code. Stacksync's field mapping accounts for these differences between Anaplan and SQL Server without custom code.
-
Stacksync is SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001 certified with HIPAA BAA support. Data is encrypted in transit, and a zero-persistent-storage architecture means Anaplan and SQL Server records are not retained after a sync operation.
