Why teams connect Blue Yonder WMS and Ukg Ready

Sync the workers, org structure, and cost centers that Blue Yonder WMS and Ukg Ready share in real time, so the people Ukg Ready manages stay current in the system that runs finance and operations.

Ukg Ready is the system of record for people: who was hired, which department and location they sit in, who they report to, and how they are paid. Blue Yonder WMS runs finance and operations, and much of what it does depends on that same information, from booking labor cost to approving an expense report to staffing a project. Where the two are bridged by re-keying or an overnight file, each side spends the day out of step, with new hires missing from the systems they need and leavers still active where they should not be.

Stacksync syncs Shipments and shipment confirmations, Locations and facilities, Receipts, Items / SKUs in Blue Yonder WMS with Employees, Employment / Positions, Compensation, Timesheet Entries in Ukg Ready field by field, in real time, and in both directions. You decide which system owns which fields, so the people side stays authoritative for worker data while Blue Yonder WMS keeps its own accounting and operational detail, and every change made in one is reflected in the other within seconds instead of at the next batch run.

Common use cases

  • 01 Push sales orders from an OMS into the WMS for fulfillment and return shipment confirmations with tracking numbers.
  • 02 Mirror WMS inventory balances into a warehouse or ERP so planning and finance see the same on-hand numbers.
  • 03 Feed Timesheet Entries and Accruals/Time Off into a data warehouse for labor-cost, overtime, and PTO-liability reporting.
  • 04 Mirror Cost Centers/Groups and Compensation into finance and planning systems for headcount and budget reconciliation.

Common sync patterns

Reporting lines drive approvals

Manager and reporting-hierarchy changes in Ukg Ready keep expense and purchase approval chains in Blue Yonder WMS pointed at the right people.

Where Ukg Ready runs payroll: labor cost in the books

Pay and compensation data from Ukg Ready posts into Blue Yonder WMS as labor cost, so finance sees workforce spend without re-entering it by hand.

Where Ukg Ready is the worker system of record: one employee master

When a worker is hired, moved, or offboarded in Ukg Ready, the matching employee record in Blue Yonder WMS is created, updated, or deactivated, so the business system reflects the workforce as it actually is.
