Why teams connect Linnworks and TimescaleDB

Give your engineers Linnworks's data in TimescaleDB: 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 Open Orders, Processed Orders, Stock Items, Stock Levels from Linnworks into TimescaleDB and keeps both sides consistent in real time. Whatever Linnworks is the system of record for, whether financials, operations, people, or procurement, those records become rows your code can query, and changes written in TimescaleDB sync back into Linnworks with its validations respected.

Common use cases

  • Consolidate metrics from several services into one hypertable to serve a single reporting layer.
  • Sync product or IoT telemetry stored in TimescaleDB into a CRM so account teams see usage metrics next to the customer record.
  • Keep stock levels consistent between Linnworks and external systems so multichannel listings stay aligned with sellable stock
  • Mirror processed orders, refunds, and returns into a warehouse for margin reporting across channels

Read ERP records with a query

Records from Linnworks live in TimescaleDB 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 Linnworks interface, limits, and retries.

React to ERP changes

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

What you can sync between Linnworks and TimescaleDB

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 TimescaleDB objects
Stock Items SKU records keep product data aligned with ERPs and PIMs. Schemas Postgres namespaces used to separate synced datasets by team or environment.
Stock Levels Per-location quantities sync outward so channels and planning tools reflect current availability. Hypertables Time-partitioned tables that hold the main time-series data; the primary read and write target in syncs.
Locations Warehouse and fulfillment location records scope stock data during mapping. Chunks Time-bounded partitions of a hypertable; syncs read and write through the parent hypertable and never address chunks directly.
Purchase Orders Replenishment POs sync with suppliers and accounting systems. Continuous Aggregates Incrementally maintained rollups that serve as pre-aggregated read sources for downstream systems.
Suppliers Vendor records keep procurement data consistent across tools. Regular PostgreSQL Tables Relational reference data such as devices, tenants, or accounts synced alongside the series data.
Channel Listings Marketplace and webstore listing mappings tie channel products to internal SKUs. Views Standard SQL views used to shape or filter data for consumers.
