Why teams connect MotherDuck and SAP

Put SAP's records in MotherDuck as live tables for reporting and analysis, without extract jobs, and write results back where SAP can use them.

ERP data is some of the most asked-for data in the warehouse and some of the hardest to get: the record types are many, the APIs are strict, and extract jobs are brittle. Whether SAP carries financials, operations, workforce data, or all three, the analysis belongs in MotherDuck next to everything else the company measures.

Stacksync syncs Purchase Orders, Outbound Deliveries, Billing Documents, GL Accounts and Journal Entries from SAP into tables in MotherDuck continuously, managing API limits and schema drift along the way. The connection is bi-directional, so values computed in MotherDuck can be written back to fields in SAP where that is useful.

Common use cases

  • Share curated, synced datasets with other teams through read-only database shares
  • Land CRM and operational database records in MotherDuck so a small team gets warehouse-style analytics without cluster management
  • Keep MES and WMS systems aligned with production orders and goods movements.
  • Expose sales order and delivery status to customer portals through a synced Postgres database instead of direct SAP access.

Where SAP is the HR system of record: workforce analytics

Worker and organization data syncs into MotherDuck for headcount, cost, and planning analysis alongside other company data.

Where SAP runs operations: order and supply analysis

Operational records become queryable tables in MotherDuck, joinable with sales and finance data.

Group reporting across systems

Combine SAP's records with data synced from other systems in MotherDuck for consolidated views no single system can produce.
