Why teams connect Brightpearl and Postgres Heroku

Give your engineers Brightpearl's data in Postgres Heroku: 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, Inventory and warehouses, Goods-out notes, Invoices and payments from Brightpearl into Postgres Heroku and keeps both sides consistent in real time. Whatever Brightpearl is the system of record for, whether financials, operations, people, or procurement, those records become rows your code can query, and changes written in Postgres Heroku sync back into Brightpearl with its validations respected.

Common use cases

  • Expose CRM objects as Postgres tables the Heroku application can query and join directly
  • Sync Heroku Postgres into a warehouse for reporting without running ETL dynos
  • Sync Brightpearl sales orders and fulfillment status with a CRM so sales and support see order state without switching tools.
  • Mirror inventory levels from Brightpearl into a database that feeds availability to storefronts and marketplaces.

React to ERP changes

Updates in Brightpearl arrive as row changes in Postgres Heroku, so jobs and triggers can respond as the business record changes.

Where Brightpearl is the HR system of record: people data for internal systems

Worker and org records stay current in Postgres Heroku for provisioning, access, and reporting systems that read from the database.

Controlled write-back

Choose exactly which tables and fields may flow from Postgres Heroku back into Brightpearl, keeping the ERP authoritative.

What you can sync between Brightpearl and Postgres Heroku

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.

Brightpearl objects Postgres Heroku objects
Invoices and payments Financial documents synced to accounting platforms for reconciliation. Schemas Namespaces that scope which tables a sync reads and writes.
Custom fields Per-object custom attributes included in field mappings. Primary and Unique Keys Match keys for idempotent upserts from connected systems.
Products SKU records with variants and price lists, synced with e-commerce and ERP catalogs. JSONB Columns Semi-structured payloads for nested SaaS objects and metadata.
Sales orders Orders from all channels; the central object for fulfillment and revenue syncs. Sequences Generate surrogate keys for rows created by inbound syncs.
Purchase orders Supplier orders synced with procurement or accounting systems. Follower Databases Heroku-managed read replicas usable as low-impact sync sources.
Contacts Customers and suppliers in one contact model, matched to CRM records by email or reference. Tables Standard Postgres tables; the primary two-way sync target for app data.

How the Brightpearl and Postgres Heroku connectors work

Brightpearl

Integration surface
REST API, organized into services (order, product, contact, warehouse, accounting)
Authentication
OAuth 2.0 (authorization code grant) for current apps; legacy private and public apps authenticate with app reference and account token headers
Change detection
Webhooks for object created/updated events, with resource search polling as a fallback
Capabilities
read · write · webhooks
Rate limits
Requests are throttled per account under Brightpearl's API usage policies; bulk operations should use batch endpoints

Postgres Heroku

Integration surface
SQL wire protocol (standard PostgreSQL)
Authentication
Database credentials from the Heroku DATABASE_URL config var; SSL required
Change detection
Trigger-based capture or polling in most configurations; log-based logical replication availability depends on plan and Heroku's managed server settings
Capabilities
read · write
Rate limits
No API rate limits; connection counts and performance are bounded by the Heroku Postgres plan
