Why teams connect Cin7 and TiDB

Give your engineers Cin7's data in TiDB: 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, Branches / locations, Stock adjustments and transfers, Credit notes / returns from Cin7 into TiDB and keeps both sides consistent in real time. Whatever Cin7 is the system of record for, whether financials, operations, people, or procurement, those records become rows your code can query, and changes written in TiDB sync back into Cin7 with its validations respected.

Common use cases

  • Stream row-level changes to a warehouse or Kafka via CDC for near-real-time analytics
  • Serve mixed transactional and analytical workloads on synced data using TiFlash columnar replicas
  • Publish Cin7 inventory levels to storefronts, marketplaces, and a CRM so every channel quotes real availability.
  • Sync sales orders from Cin7 into an accounting platform or warehouse for revenue and margin reporting.

Internal tools and automations without API code

Scripts and services read and write the synced tables; Stacksync handles the Cin7 interface, limits, and retries.

React to ERP changes

Updates in Cin7 arrive as row changes in TiDB, so jobs and triggers can respond as the business record changes.

Where Cin7 is the HR system of record: people data for internal systems

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

What you can sync between Cin7 and TiDB

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.

Cin7 objects TiDB objects
Branches / locations Warehouse entities that scope every stock movement and order allocation. Databases MySQL-style schemas addressed by any MySQL-compatible client.
Stock adjustments and transfers Inventory movements read for audit and reconciliation reporting. Tables Row data stored in TiKV; the primary unit for reads, writes, and CDC.
Credit notes / returns Return documents synced so finance and support see the same refund state. Views Logical views for shaping reads before syncing outward.
Products SKU records with options and pricing, synced with storefront and marketplace catalogs. Columns MySQL-compatible types mapped to fields in the paired system.
Inventory levels Stock on hand by branch or location, published outward for availability. Indexes Secondary indexes that keep incremental sync queries efficient.
Sales orders Orders captured from all channels; the main object for fulfillment and revenue syncs. Sequences Server-side ID generation relevant when external systems write rows.
