Why teams connect Dynamics 365 Business Central and SQL Server

Give your engineers Dynamics 365 Business Central's data in SQL Server: 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 Purchase Orders, General Ledger Entries, Journals, Dimensions from Dynamics 365 Business Central into SQL Server and keeps both sides consistent in real time. Whatever Dynamics 365 Business Central is the system of record for, whether financials, operations, people, or procurement, those records become rows your code can query, and changes written in SQL Server sync back into Dynamics 365 Business Central with its validations respected.

Common use cases

  • Expose SaaS records as SQL Server tables that existing SSRS reports and internal apps can query
  • Mirror on-premises ERP data held in SQL Server into cloud CRM and support systems
  • Replicate GL entries and dimensions into a SQL database for financial reporting without giving analysts ERP logins.
  • Sync vendor and purchase order data with procurement or AP automation tools.

React to ERP changes

Updates in Dynamics 365 Business Central arrive as row changes in SQL Server, so jobs and triggers can respond as the business record changes.

Where Dynamics 365 Business Central is the HR system of record: people data for internal systems

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

Controlled write-back

Choose exactly which tables and fields may flow from SQL Server back into Dynamics 365 Business Central, keeping the ERP authoritative.

What you can sync between Dynamics 365 Business Central and SQL Server

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.

Dynamics 365 Business Central objects SQL Server objects
Dimensions Analytical tags (department, project) that syncs preserve for reporting integrity. Columns Field-level mapping targets with T-SQL types.
Payments Customer and vendor payment records reconciled against invoices. Primary and Unique Keys Match keys for idempotent upserts and conflict handling.
Customers Core master data synced with CRMs so sales and finance share one customer list. CDC Change Tables System-populated tables holding captured inserts, updates, and deletes for consumers.
Vendors Supplier master data synced with procurement and AP automation tools. Stored Procedures T-SQL logic that can validate or post-process synced rows.
Items Product and inventory records aligned with e-commerce and warehouse systems. Databases Instance-level databases that scope a sync's reads and writes.
Sales Orders Order headers and lines created from external channels and read back for fulfillment status. Schemas Namespaces (dbo and custom) used to organize synced tables.
