Why teams connect 6sense and Workday

Sync customers, invoices, and payment status between Workday and 6sense in real time, so sales sees the money and finance sees the relationship.

6sense is a read-only source: Stacksync reads its data in real time and delivers it into Workday, so Workday always reflects the current state of 6sense — without exports, scripts, or schedulers.

Finance and sales describe the same customers in different systems. 6sense knows the relationship: who the contacts are and what is in motion with the account. Workday knows the money: what was invoiced, what was paid, what is overdue. When the two are connected only by exports, each side works partly blind.

Common use cases

  • Replicate worker, organization, and compensation data into a secured database for people analytics without giving analysts tenant access.
  • Push completed payroll results into a finance system or data warehouse each pay cycle.
  • Sync 6sense buying stage and intent scores onto CRM accounts so sellers prioritize in-market targets.
  • Pull segment membership into a marketing automation platform to trigger campaigns when accounts enter a segment.

Where 6sense tracks deals: closed-won creates the finance record

A won opportunity creates or updates the customer in Workday with the right billing details, so invoicing starts without re-keying.

Payment status on the account

Invoice and payment status from Workday appears on the account in 6sense, so reps see overdue balances before they promise the next order.

Billing detail changes flow back

When a contact or address is corrected in 6sense, Workday gets the update before the next invoice goes out.
