Why teams connect Google Cloud Spanner and SAP

Give your engineers SAP's data in Google Cloud Spanner: 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 Materials (Products), Sales Orders, Purchase Orders, Outbound Deliveries from SAP into Google Cloud Spanner and keeps both sides consistent in real time. Whatever SAP is the system of record for, whether financials, operations, people, or procurement, those records become rows your code can query, and changes written in Google Cloud Spanner sync back into SAP with its validations respected.

Common use cases

  • Run a two-way sync between Spanner and a SaaS tool so edits made by ops teams land back in the application database.
  • Consolidate data from a globally distributed Spanner deployment into regional business systems.
  • Replicate journal entries and billing documents to a warehouse for finance analytics without loading the ERP.
  • Keep MES and WMS systems aligned with production orders and goods movements.

Read ERP records with a query

Records from SAP live in Google Cloud Spanner as ordinary tables or collections, joinable with the rest of your data.

Internal tools and automations without API code

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

React to ERP changes

Updates in SAP arrive as row changes in Google Cloud Spanner, so jobs and triggers can respond as the business record changes.

What you can sync between Google Cloud Spanner and SAP

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.

Google Cloud Spanner objects SAP objects
Databases Top-level containers that scope schema and sync configuration. Materials (Products) Item master with plant and sales views, synced to commerce, PLM, and CRM systems.
Tables Relational tables mapped one-to-one to sync targets. Sales Orders Order documents written from external channels and read for status and fulfillment.
Rows The unit of read and write in each sync cycle, keyed by primary key. Purchase Orders Procurement documents synced with supplier portals and spend tools.
Interleaved tables Child rows physically co-located with parents; synced as related records. Outbound Deliveries Shipment documents synced to WMS, carriers, and customer portals.
Secondary indexes Used to make incremental read queries efficient on non-key columns. Billing Documents Invoices read for AR status and replicated for revenue reporting.
Change streams Capture inserts, updates, and deletes for log-style change data capture. GL Accounts and Journal Entries Financial postings replicated to warehouses for group finance analytics.
