Why teams connect Citus and SAP Business ByDesign

Give your engineers SAP Business ByDesign's data in Citus: 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 Opportunities, Projects, Employees, Business Partners (Accounts) from SAP Business ByDesign into Citus and keeps both sides consistent in real time. Whatever SAP Business ByDesign is the system of record for, whether financials, operations, people, or procurement, those records become rows your code can query, and changes written in Citus sync back into SAP Business ByDesign with its validations respected.

Common use cases

  • Sync high-volume event or tenant data from a Citus cluster into a warehouse for cross-tenant analytics.
  • Write CRM or billing records into reference tables so distributed queries can join operational context locally on every node.
  • 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.

React to ERP changes

Updates in SAP Business ByDesign arrive as row changes in Citus, so jobs and triggers can respond as the business record changes.

Where SAP Business ByDesign is the HR system of record: people data for internal systems

What you can sync between Citus and SAP Business ByDesign

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.

Citus objects SAP Business ByDesign objects
Schemas Standard Postgres namespaces used to scope what a sync user can read and write. Contacts Person records linked to accounts, aligned with CRM contact objects.
Views Curated projections over distributed data, often used as read-only sync sources. Sales Orders Order documents created from external channels and read for status.
Sequences Key generators that matter when external writes must not collide with application inserts. Customer Invoices Billing documents synced outward for collections and CRM visibility.
Distributed tables Tables sharded across worker nodes by a distribution column; the main sync target for large datasets. Materials / Products Item master data aligned with e-commerce and inventory systems.
Reference tables Small lookup tables replicated to every node, synced like ordinary Postgres tables. Purchase Orders Procurement documents exchanged with supplier systems.
Local tables Coordinator-only tables that behave exactly like standard PostgreSQL tables. Opportunities Built-in CRM records synced with external sales tools when both are in use.
