Why teams connect BambooHR and SAP ASE (Sybase)

Put your workforce data where your apps can reach it: SAP ASE (Sybase) and BambooHR share the same people, positions, and org structure in real time.

BambooHR is the system of record for the people side of the business — employees, candidates, roles, and the org structure around them. SAP ASE (Sybase) is where internal tools, dashboards, provisioning jobs, and analytics actually read and store records. The overlap is the workforce itself: Time Off, Employment Status, Departments and Divisions, Custom Tables in BambooHR need to exist as queryable Triggers, Indexes, Tables, Views in SAP ASE (Sybase) before an app can act on them. When that bridge is a nightly export or a hand-run CSV, every downstream system spends the day working from a roster that has already moved on.

Stacksync syncs Triggers, Indexes, Tables, Views in SAP ASE (Sybase) with Time Off, Employment Status, Departments and Divisions, Custom Tables in BambooHR field by field, in real time. You decide which system owns which fields — BambooHR typically owns identity and org attributes, while operational or computed values can flow back the other way — and Stacksync keeps every copy consistent, matching records on a stable key and resolving conflicts by rules you set.

The result is one live picture of the workforce on both sides: HR keeps its source of truth, and the database keeps a current mirror that internal apps, reports, and access controls can trust without a batch window in between.

Common use cases

  • 01 Bridge legacy ASE-backed applications to modern SaaS tools through a synced intermediate database.
  • 02 Migrate off ASE incrementally by keeping old and new databases in sync during cutover.
  • 03 Push approved Time Off into capacity and scheduling systems so project plans reflect real availability.
  • 04 Feed Compensation and custom-table data to a warehouse for HR analytics with field-level access control.

Common sync patterns

Computed and operational fields flow back

Values assembled or corrected in SAP ASE (Sybase) write onto the matching record in BambooHR where those fields are writable, keeping the people system enriched.

Mirror people records into the database

Records maintained in BambooHR land as queryable Triggers, Indexes, Tables, Views in SAP ASE (Sybase), so internal apps and dashboards read live data instead of a periodic export.

One directory of record

When a person record is added, changed, or deactivated in either system, the matching row in the other stays current, ending dual maintenance.

What you can sync between BambooHR and SAP ASE (Sybase)

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.

BambooHR objects SAP ASE (Sybase) objects How this pairing syncs
Employees The core person record with personal and work fields; read out to identity, payroll, and IT systems, and written back from recruiting or onboarding tools. Stored Procedures T-SQL routines that encapsulate business logic; often invoked instead of direct table writes. Employees is specific to BambooHR and Stored Procedures to SAP ASE (Sybase) — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Job Information Effective-dated job title, department, division, location, and reporting line; synced so org charts and provisioning systems track internal moves. Databases and Schemas Namespaces that scope sync configuration and permissions. Job Information is specific to BambooHR and Databases and Schemas to SAP ASE (Sybase) — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Compensation Effective-dated pay rate, schedule, and change reason; read into planning and payroll systems with access restricted to authorized fields. Triggers Server-side hooks sometimes used to populate change-capture tables for syncs. Compensation is specific to BambooHR and Triggers to SAP ASE (Sybase) — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Time Off Requests, balances, and policies; read for absence calendars and capacity planning, with approved requests written from an external scheduling tool. Indexes Access paths that keep keyed polling queries efficient on large OLTP tables. Time Off is specific to BambooHR and Indexes to SAP ASE (Sybase) — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Employment Status Effective-dated hire, leave, and termination status; drives automated provisioning and deprovisioning in downstream identity and license systems. Tables The core sync unit; rows are read and written with standard SQL. Employment Status is specific to BambooHR and Tables to SAP ASE (Sybase) — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Departments and Divisions Org-structure list values; synced to keep cost centers and team groupings consistent across ERP, identity, and analytics systems. Views Read-only projections used to shape data for extraction without touching base tables. Departments and Divisions is specific to BambooHR and Views to SAP ASE (Sybase) — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between BambooHR and SAP ASE (Sybase)

Each direction of the sync is driven by what the source system can signal and what the destination accepts — detection, delivery, and expected latency below.

BambooHR SAP ASE (Sybase) Sub-second propagation

DetectionBambooHR notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. The Get Updated Employee IDs endpoint (last-changed timestamps) returns employees inserted, updated, or deleted since a cursor for efficient polling.

DeliveryEach detected change is applied to SAP ASE (Sybase) as a row-level write, with types converted between the two schemas.

SAP ASE (Sybase) BambooHR Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls SAP ASE (Sybase) for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Timestamp or key-based polling and trigger-based capture.

DeliveryEach detected change is written to BambooHR through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Rate-limit considerations

  • BambooHR: Requests are rate-limited per API key with standard REST throttling (429 on excess); bulk reads are best done through saved Reports or the updated-IDs delta endpoint rather than per-employee calls.
