Why teams connect Sage X3 and Workday

Keep Workday and Sage X3 agreeing on customers, invoices, and balances, whether they split the finance workload or one is replacing the other.

A dedicated finance tool and an ERP end up side by side for practical reasons: a subsidiary runs lighter software than headquarters, billing runs in a specialist system while the enterprise system holds the wider view, or the company is mid-migration and both are live. Whatever the split, the two systems describe overlapping customers and transactions, and that overlap drifts without a live connection.

Stacksync syncs Custom Reports (RaaS), Workers, Organizations, Positions in Workday with Products, Sales Orders, Purchase Orders, Work Orders in Sage X3 in real time and in both directions. You decide which system wins on which field, and every change made in one is reflected in the other within seconds instead of at the next batch run.

Common use cases

  • Keep supervisory-organization hierarchies aligned with planning and workforce tools that model the same structure.
  • Sync worker records from Workday into IT and identity systems so hires, transfers, and terminations provision access automatically.
  • Feed work order and BOM data to MES or planning tools on the shop floor.
  • Sync business partners and products between Sage X3 and a CRM so global sales teams quote from current ERP masters.

Subsidiary to headquarters

Where Workday serves a business unit and Sage X3 is the group system, transactions and customer records roll up continuously, so consolidation starts from live data.

Where Workday handles billing: invoices land in Sage X3

Invoices and payment activity from the billing side post through to the enterprise system automatically.

Migration without a hard cutover

When one system is replacing the other, run both in parallel with records matching until the switch is complete.
