Why teams connect SAP Business ByDesign and ServiceNow

Bridge the tools people work in and the system the business runs on: real-time, two-way sync between ServiceNow and SAP Business ByDesign.

The ERP holds the records the business is run on, and it is rarely where day-to-day work happens. ServiceNow is closer to the work, and the two often need the same facts about the same people, organizations, and transactions. Bridging them by hand, or by nightly file transfer, leaves each side out of date for hours at a time.

Stacksync syncs Knowledge Articles, Custom Tables, Incidents, Change Requests in ServiceNow with Employees, Business Partners (Accounts), Contacts, Sales Orders in SAP Business ByDesign bi-directionally and in real time, with field-level mapping and rules for which system wins on conflict. Changes made where the work happens reach the system of record within seconds, and the reverse.

Common use cases

  • Create ServiceNow tickets automatically from CRM cases and sync status back as agents work them
  • Bi-directional sync of incidents with engineering issue trackers so IT and engineering work the same ticket without re-keying
  • Sync project and time data with external professional-services tools for billing.
  • Sync ByDesign accounts and contacts with an external CRM so sales works outside the ERP while finance keeps the master record.

Where SAP Business ByDesign is the HR or people system of record

Worker and organization data from SAP Business ByDesign stays current in ServiceNow, so the tools people use daily reflect the org as it actually is.

Master data corrections travel

A customer, supplier, or contact detail corrected in either system updates the other, ending duplicate maintenance.

Where ServiceNow faces customers and SAP Business ByDesign carries account records

Order, invoice, or account status from SAP Business ByDesign appears alongside the customer in ServiceNow, so front-line teams answer from live data.
