Why teams connect Linnworks and Salesforce

Close the gap between front office and back office: Salesforce and Linnworks share customers and status in real time, in both directions.

Salesforce holds the customer relationship; Linnworks runs the operations and records behind the business. The two overlap wherever the same organizations and transactions matter to both, and when that overlap is bridged by re-keying or overnight batch, each side spends the day working from stale data.

Stacksync syncs Cases, Campaigns, Tasks and Events, Products and Price Books in Salesforce with Open Orders, Processed Orders, Stock Items, Stock Levels in Linnworks field by field, in real time, and in both directions. You decide which system owns which fields; Stacksync keeps every copy consistent and resolves conflicts by rules you set.

Common use cases

  • Sync Accounts, Contacts, and Opportunities bi-directionally with Postgres so engineering teams read and write CRM data with plain SQL.
  • Write product usage metrics computed in a warehouse onto Account and Contact fields so reps see adoption signals on the record.
  • Sync orders from Linnworks into an ERP or accounting system as they are processed, without CSV exports
  • Keep stock levels consistent between Linnworks and external systems so multichannel listings stay aligned with sellable stock

Where Linnworks handles order-to-cash: closed-won flows through

A deal won in Salesforce creates or updates the customer in Linnworks with clean data, so fulfillment and invoicing start without re-entry.

Where Linnworks is the finance system of record: money status on the account

Invoice and payment state from Linnworks shows on the account in Salesforce, so reps see balances before promising the next order.

One customer master

Where both systems keep customer or organization records, corrections in either propagate to the other, ending dual maintenance.

What you can sync between Linnworks and Salesforce

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.

Linnworks objects Salesforce objects
Open Orders Unshipped orders aggregated from sales channels sync into ERPs and fulfillment systems. Cases Support records; synced with help desk tools or internal databases for escalation workflows.
Processed Orders Completed orders feed accounting and warehouse-based margin reporting. Campaigns Marketing membership data; read out for attribution analysis in the warehouse.
Stock Items SKU records keep product data aligned with ERPs and PIMs. Tasks and Events Activity records; usually read-only in syncs to feed activity reporting.
Stock Levels Per-location quantities sync outward so channels and planning tools reflect current availability. Products and Price Books Catalog and pricing data; commonly mastered in an ERP and written into Salesforce.
Locations Warehouse and fulfillment location records scope stock data during mapping. Custom Objects Org-specific tables with the __c suffix; discoverable via describe metadata so field mappings can be generated.
Purchase Orders Replenishment POs sync with suppliers and accounting systems. Accounts Company records that anchor most syncs; typically mapped to customer tables in a database or ERP.
