Why teams connect SAP Business ByDesign and Snowflake

Put SAP Business ByDesign's records in Snowflake as live tables for reporting and analysis, without extract jobs, and write results back where SAP Business ByDesign 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 Business ByDesign carries financials, operations, workforce data, or all three, the analysis belongs in Snowflake next to everything else the company measures.

Stacksync syncs Business Partners (Accounts), Contacts, Sales Orders, Customer Invoices from SAP Business ByDesign into tables in Snowflake continuously, managing API limits and schema drift along the way. The connection is bi-directional, so values computed in Snowflake can be written back to fields in SAP Business ByDesign where that is useful.

Common use cases

  • Keep a customer 360 table aligned with its source systems in both directions instead of one-way reverse ETL
  • Push product usage aggregates from Snowflake into sales and success tools for account prioritization
  • Align the ByDesign material master with external product catalogs and inventory systems.
  • Sync project and time data with external professional-services tools for billing.

Write-back where SAP Business ByDesign exposes writable fields

Classifications or reference values computed in Snowflake sync back onto the corresponding records in SAP Business ByDesign.

Where SAP Business ByDesign holds the books: finance reporting from live data

Financial records land in Snowflake as they change, so period-end reporting queries current numbers rather than last night's extract.

Where SAP Business ByDesign is the HR system of record: workforce analytics

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

What you can sync between SAP Business ByDesign and Snowflake

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.

Business Partners (Accounts) Customer and supplier master data synced with CRMs and procurement tools. Databases Top-level containers that scope which data a sync can touch.
Contacts Person records linked to accounts, aligned with CRM contact objects. Schemas Namespaces within a database used to organize synced tables.
