Automate Business Planning Workflows with Pigment Integrations
Connect Pigment to your CRM, ERP, data warehouse, and business tools to keep financial models and forecasts in sync automatically.
What can you do with the Pigment connector?
Pigment is a modern business planning platform built for finance, revenue, and operations teams who need real-time, collaborative forecasting. Integrating Pigment with your broader tech stack cuts out the manual data exports, stale spreadsheet imports, and disconnected planning cycles that slow down decisions. With tray.ai, you can build automations that push actuals from your ERP, pull pipeline data from your CRM, and trigger planning model updates the moment business conditions change.
Automate & integrate Pigment
Automating Pigment business processes or integrating Pigment data is made easy with Tray.ai.
Use case
Sync CRM Pipeline Data into Pigment Revenue Forecasts
Sales pipeline data sitting in Salesforce or HubSpot is only useful for planning if it reaches Pigment in time. Automatically sync opportunity data, deal stages, and ARR values from your CRM into Pigment so revenue forecasts always reflect the latest pipeline reality. This kills the weekly manual export ritual and gives finance teams confidence their models are built on current data.
- Eliminate manual CSV exports from Salesforce or HubSpot into Pigment
- Keep revenue forecasts current with pipeline changes within minutes
- Reduce forecast cycle preparation time from hours to near zero
Use case
Push Financial Actuals from ERP Systems into Pigment
Finance teams spend too much time pulling actuals from NetSuite, SAP, or Workday and loading them into Pigment for variance analysis. Automate this so that when accounting periods close or journal entries are posted, the relevant P&L, balance sheet, and cash flow data flows directly into Pigment's planning models. Budget-versus-actual comparisons stay fresh without anyone touching a spreadsheet.
- Automate actuals ingestion from NetSuite, SAP, or Workday on a scheduled or event-driven basis
- Remove reconciliation errors caused by copy-paste data entry
- Accelerate monthly close and reporting cycles by days
Use case
Trigger Workforce Planning Updates from HRIS Changes
When employees are hired, terminated, or change roles in Workday or BambooHR, your headcount plans in Pigment can go stale instantly. Connect your HRIS to Pigment so headcount changes automatically propagate into workforce planning models, keeping compensation and capacity forecasts aligned with what's actually happening in the org.
- Keep Pigment headcount plans current with real-time HRIS event triggers
- Reduce manual headcount reconciliation between HR and Finance
- Reflect organizational changes in capacity planning immediately
Use case
Distribute Pigment Outputs and Reports to Business Stakeholders
Pigment scenario outputs, budget approvals, and forecast summaries often need to reach stakeholders across Slack, email, or project management tools. Automate distribution so that when a planning model is updated or a budget cycle closes, key outputs go directly to the right people without the planning team spending an afternoon on it.
- Auto-deliver Pigment forecast summaries to Slack channels or email lists on schedule
- Notify business unit owners the moment their budget allocations are updated
- Cut time spent on manual report prep and stakeholder communication
Use case
Enrich Pigment Models with Marketing and Revenue Operations Data
Marketing spend, campaign performance, and pipeline generation metrics are real inputs to revenue planning models in Pigment. Connect tools like Google Ads, Marketo, or HubSpot Marketing to Pigment so demand generation actuals and projections feed directly into your planning models, tightening the connection between marketing investment and revenue forecasting.
- Feed marketing attribution and spend data into Pigment revenue models automatically
- Put marketing and finance on a single source of planning truth
- Model ROI scenarios in Pigment using live campaign performance data
Use case
Automate Pigment Data Exports to Data Warehouses and BI Tools
Planning outputs from Pigment often need to flow into Snowflake, BigQuery, or BI tools like Tableau or Looker for broader organizational reporting. Automate exports on a schedule or after key planning events so enterprise data platforms stay in sync without manual API calls or file transfers.
- Schedule automatic exports from Pigment to Snowflake, BigQuery, or Redshift
- Keep Tableau or Looker dashboards powered by the latest Pigment plan data
- Reduce dependency on engineers for routine data pipeline maintenance
Build Pigment Agents
Give agents secure and governed access to Pigment through Agent Builder and Agent Gateway for MCP.
Fetch Planning Data
Data SourceRetrieve financial plans, budgets, and forecasts from Pigment for downstream analysis or reporting. An agent can pull current and historical planning data to answer questions or inform decisions.
Query Metrics and KPIs
Data SourcePull performance indicators and business metrics from Pigment models in real time. An agent can serve up current numbers across revenue, headcount, or cost dimensions without anyone digging through the model manually.
Read Scenario Data
Data SourceAccess multiple planning scenarios — base case, upside, downside — stored in Pigment to compare outcomes and support strategic recommendations. An agent can walk stakeholders through the trade-offs between different planning assumptions.
Retrieve Model Structure
Data SourceInspect the structure of Pigment models, including dimensions, metrics, and lists, to understand how data is organized. This helps an agent navigate and interpret planning data more accurately when responding to business queries.
Fetch Actuals vs. Budget Variance
Data SourcePull variance data comparing actuals to budgeted figures across departments or time periods. An agent can surface these variances automatically, flagging overspend or underperformance before someone has to ask.
Update Planning Assumptions
Agent ToolWrite new values or revised assumptions into Pigment models, so an agent can update forecasts based on inputs from other systems or user instructions — no manual data entry needed.
Create or Modify Scenarios
Agent ToolProgrammatically create new planning scenarios or adjust existing ones in Pigment based on business triggers or user requests. Useful when you need to quickly model the impact of a reorg, a market shift, or a strategic pivot.
Trigger Plan Recalculation
Agent ToolKick off a recalculation of Pigment models after data updates so all dependent metrics and outputs reflect the latest inputs. Useful when an agent makes bulk updates and needs the model to catch up.
Import Data into Pigment
Agent ToolPush external data — actuals from an ERP, CRM pipeline data, and so on — into Pigment to keep planning models in sync with operational systems. An agent can handle these imports as part of automated refresh workflows.
Export Planning Reports
Agent ToolGenerate and export reports or data tables from Pigment for distribution via email, Slack, or other channels. An agent can automate delivery of financial summaries on a schedule or in response to specific events.
Manage Users and Permissions
Agent ToolAdd, update, or deactivate user accounts and adjust access permissions within Pigment as part of onboarding or offboarding workflows. An agent can keep access controls in sync with HR or identity management system changes.

Challenges Tray.ai solves
Common obstacles when integrating Pigment — and how Tray.ai handles them.
Challenge
Fragmented Data Across Planning and Operational Systems
Pigment models are only as good as the data flowing into them, but actuals and operational inputs typically live across ERPs, CRMs, and HRIS platforms. Getting this data into Pigment consistently and on time means either building expensive point-to-point integrations or doing exhausting manual exports that are slow and error-prone.
How Tray.ai helps
tray.ai has pre-built connectors to all major ERP, CRM, and HRIS platforms, so you can build multi-step workflows that automatically route data from any source system into Pigment on a schedule or event-driven basis, without writing custom integration code.
Challenge
Keeping Pigment in Sync Without Overloading Planning Teams
Finance and operations teams are already responsible for maintaining planning models. Asking the same people to also run integration scripts to keep Pigment current is a recipe for stale data or a burned-out team. Something has to give, and it's usually the analysis work that actually matters.
How Tray.ai helps
tray.ai takes data logistics off the planning team's plate by running automated workflows in the background. Once configured, integrations run on triggers or schedules without anyone babysitting them, freeing planners to focus on analysis and decision support rather than data wrangling.
Challenge
Handling Complex Data Transformation Before Loading into Pigment
Raw data from CRMs or ERPs rarely maps cleanly to Pigment's dimensional model. Deal data needs segmenting by region and product, headcount data needs mapping to cost centers, and financial actuals need to align with the chart-of-accounts hierarchies Pigment uses internally. This translation work is tedious and breaks constantly when done by hand.
How Tray.ai helps
tray.ai's workflow builder includes data transformation capabilities like conditional logic, loops, and custom JavaScript steps that let you reshape and enrich source data before it reaches Pigment, so inputs arrive clean and correctly structured every time.
