Why teams connect Pigment and Slack

Connect the financial records in Pigment with the work happening in Slack, so both stay current without exports or copy-paste.

Pigment holds the financial truth: who the customers are, what they were billed, what they paid. Slack is where part of the day-to-day work happens, and that work often involves the same customers and transactions. Without a live connection, the two drift apart, and people end up answering questions from stale copies.

Stacksync keeps Users and permissions, Applications, Metrics, Dimension lists in Pigment and Threads, Users, User groups, Files in Slack in sync, bi-directionally and in real time. Whatever records Slack keeps and whatever events it produces, the overlap with Pigment is mapped field by field, and a change on either side shows up on the other within seconds.

There is no middleware to build, no API rate limits to babysit, and no nightly job that leaves the morning running on yesterday's data.

Common use cases

  • Export approved budgets and forecasts back to a warehouse or Postgres for downstream reporting.
  • Keep dimension lists such as departments and cost centers consistent with master data in the ERP.
  • Sync the Slack user directory with the HRIS or identity provider to keep memberships and profiles current
  • Archive channel messages into a warehouse or database for compliance and analytics

Where Slack handles customer conversations: billing context in view

Front-line teams see invoice and payment status from Pigment next to the customer they are helping, without logging into the finance system.

Where Slack collects payments or triggers charges: events land in Pigment

Payment and charge activity flows into Pigment as it happens, so the books reflect reality without manual reconciliation.

Where Slack tracks people or companies: one identity

A customer's details updated in either system update the other, so finance and the rest of the business stop maintaining two versions of the same customer.

What you can sync between Pigment and Slack

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.

Pigment objects Slack objects
Applications Planning models organized by domain such as finance, sales, or workforce Channels Conversations (public, private, DMs) that messages are read from and posted to.
Metrics Multidimensional values holding plans and actuals; the main target for inbound data Messages Keyed by channel and timestamp; posted via chat.postMessage and read via history methods.
Dimension lists Master data like accounts, products, or employees that metrics are sliced by Threads Replies grouped under a parent message timestamp, preserved when archiving conversations.
Tables Row-based transactional data loaded into models from source systems Users Workspace members with profile fields, synced against HR systems and identity providers.
Scenarios Versions such as budget, forecast, and actuals that give exported figures their context User groups Handles like @support that map to teams in external systems.
Data imports Scheduled loads that bring actuals from ERPs, CRMs, and HRIS into the model Files Uploads attached to messages, retrievable for archiving.
