Why teams connect Braintree and Ukg Ready

Keep the employee, department, and cost records that Braintree and Ukg Ready share consistent in real time, so the finance system and the people system stop drifting apart.

Braintree runs the money side of the company: who gets paid, what it costs, and which part of the business the cost belongs to. Ukg Ready runs the people side: who works here, which team they sit in, and how their employment changes over time. The two overlap on the same people and the same org structure, because every employee is also a payee and every department is also a cost center. When that overlap is maintained by hand, a new hire, a transfer, or a termination has to be keyed twice, and the two systems start to disagree about who is active and where the cost lands.

Stacksync syncs Merchant Accounts and Disbursements, Customers, Transactions, Payment Methods in Braintree with Cost Centers / Groups, Reports (Report-as-a-Service), Employees, Employment / Positions in Ukg Ready bi-directionally and in real time. A person added, updated, or deactivated on either side appears on the other within seconds, with field-level mapping and conflict resolution in place of CSV exports and nightly batch jobs.

That matters most when money follows a people event. A hire that finance can pay, a leaver whose access ends, a transfer that redirects cost to the right team, all happen from one change instead of two, so headcount and spend reconcile from the same set of records.

Common use cases

  • 01 Create and update Customers and Subscriptions from a CRM or billing app when a deal closes or a plan changes, writing back to Braintree.
  • 02 Push Dispute (chargeback) records into a ticketing tool or database so ops teams track evidence deadlines and win rates.
  • 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

Status changes propagate

A role, department, or employment-status change in either system updates the other within seconds, so cost allocation, access, and reporting reflect the current state.

People-driven costs land in finance

Compensation, reimbursements, or other costs tied to a person on the Ukg Ready side flow into Braintree for posting, so the books reflect what people actually cost without manual re-entry.

New person becomes a known record in finance

When someone is added in Ukg Ready, a matching employee or payee record appears in Braintree, ready for payroll, expenses, or cost allocation without anyone rekeying the details.

What you can sync between Braintree and Ukg Ready

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.

Braintree objects Ukg Ready objects How this pairing syncs
Customers Vaulted customer profiles that hold payment methods; created and updated two-way via the API and searchable by created/updated date range. Accruals / Time Off PTO balances, requests, and approver status; read for liability reporting and requests can be created against employee records. Customers is specific to Braintree and Accruals / Time Off to Ukg Ready — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Transactions Sales, refunds, and credits; created through the API but immutable after that (only void/refund/settle transitions), so syncs treat them as append-only with status changes. Payroll (Earnings / Deductions / Employee Payroll Runs) Earnings and deductions can be imported into pay runs; Employee Payroll Runs (gross, net, taxes) read back for GL posting and analytics. Transactions is specific to Braintree and Payroll (Earnings / Deductions / Employee Payroll Runs) to Ukg Ready — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Payment Methods Tokenized credit cards, PayPal accounts, and other instruments stored in the Vault against a Customer; only tokens, last-four, and expiry are exposed, never raw PAN. Benefits Plan enrollments, coverage tiers, contributions, and effective dates; typically read into benefits or finance systems. Payment Methods is specific to Braintree and Benefits to Ukg Ready — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Subscriptions Recurring billing agreements tied to a Plan and a Payment Method; created, updated, and canceled via the API and emitting webhooks on every lifecycle change. Cost Centers / Groups Departments, locations, and hierarchy used as org structure; read to align headcount and budget models across systems. Subscriptions is specific to Braintree and Cost Centers / Groups to Ukg Ready — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Plans Recurring billing plans (price, billing cycle) configured in the Control Panel; readable through the API but not creatable, so they sync one-way. Reports (Report-as-a-Service) Scheduled IBM Cognos extracts used for bulk historical pulls that the per-employee REST endpoints are not built for. Plans is specific to Braintree and Reports (Report-as-a-Service) to Ukg Ready — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Disputes Chargebacks with evidence and deadlines; ops teams can respond and add evidence via the API, and dispute webhooks push status changes to downstream tools. Employees Core person records (demographics, contact info, status, work location); synced two-way and mapped to HRIS or person tables in a database. Disputes is specific to Braintree and Employees to Ukg Ready — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Braintree and Ukg Ready

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.

Braintree Ukg Ready Sub-second propagation

DetectionBraintree notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhooks (subscription, transaction, dispute, disbursement, payment method, account updater) for near-real-time events, plus created/updated.

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

Ukg Ready Braintree Sub-second propagation

DetectionUkg Ready notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. UKG Webhooks for select events (employee.created, employee.updated, account/org changes) with HMAC signing.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Braintree: No published hard rate limits; Braintree may throttle traffic it deems abusive and returns HTTP 429, and its docs recommend webhooks over polling with a 60-second request timeout.
  • Ukg Ready: Rate limits apply over roughly a 1-minute window and return HTTP 429 when exceeded (back off / exponential retry); UKG Webhooks run on a tiered quota with a free tier around 10,000 event notifications per month and 14-day event retention.
