Why teams connect Ceridian Dayforce and Creatio CRM

Keep the people who own accounts in Creatio CRM in step with the workforce records in Ceridian Dayforce, so ownership, roles, and org structure stay current in both systems, in real time and in both directions.

Creatio CRM runs on people as much as on accounts: every contact, deal, and account has an owner, and those owners are employees whose roles, teams, and status are held in Ceridian Dayforce. Ceridian Dayforce is the system of record for the workforce, from new hires to promotions to departures, and often for the candidates the business is still deciding on. When the two systems are connected only by re-keying or an overnight export, they drift apart, and the CRM ends up assigning accounts to people who have left, holding territories that no longer match the org chart, and waiting days to give a new rep access.

Stacksync syncs Activities, Cases, Orders, Products in Creatio CRM with Employee Punches & Raw Clock Entries, Employee Schedules, Org Units, Departments, Jobs & Positions, Time Away From Work & Balances in Ceridian Dayforce field by field, in real time, and in both directions. You decide which system owns which fields, so Ceridian Dayforce stays authoritative on roles and org structure while Creatio CRM keeps ownership and territory current, and Stacksync resolves conflicts by the rules you set.

Common use cases

  • 01 Sync Creatio accounts and opportunities into a warehouse for pipeline and forecast reporting outside Creatio dashboards.
  • 02 Two-way sync of accounts, orders, and products between Creatio and an ERP so sales and fulfillment share one record of truth.
  • 03 Sync time data by posting raw clock entries from a third-party scheduling tool into Dayforce, or pulling Employee Punches and Schedules into a workforce-analytics database.
  • 04 Two-way sync of Employee and Work Assignment data (position, department, location, org unit) into Postgres so provisioning, internal apps, and analytics read current worker and org data in SQL while HR keeps editing in Dayforce.

Common sync patterns

Where Ceridian Dayforce tracks people the business also engages: contacts stay in sync

A person recorded in Ceridian Dayforce, such as a candidate or applicant, can create or update the matching contact in Creatio CRM, so relationship history and outreach are not rebuilt from scratch when the same individual appears in both.

New team members provisioned when they are hired

When Ceridian Dayforce records a new hire, a matching user or owner is created in Creatio CRM, so a new rep can start working accounts without waiting on a manual setup ticket.

Ownership and territory follow the org chart

When a person changes team, manager, or region in Ceridian Dayforce, their accounts and territory assignments in Creatio CRM update to match, so pipeline stays with the right owner.

What you can sync between Ceridian Dayforce and Creatio CRM

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.

Ceridian Dayforce objects Creatio CRM objects How this pairing syncs
Employment Status Effective-dated employment status and type (active, leave, terminated) that drives active/terminated state for downstream provisioning; read, and writable as new dated status records. Products Catalog items referenced on orders and opportunities. Employment Status is specific to Ceridian Dayforce and Products to Creatio CRM — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Work Assignments Effective-dated position, department, location, and org-unit assignment; the most-synced record for org charts, provisioning, and analytics. Read and updatable via PATCH. Custom sections (objects) No-code custom entities, exposed through the same API as standard objects. Work Assignments is specific to Ceridian Dayforce and Custom sections (objects) to Creatio CRM — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Compensation Summary & Pay Adjustments Compensation Summary returns pay rate and frequency for reporting; Employee Pay Adjustments are written as effective-dated records via PATCH to post pay changes back to Dayforce. Accounts Company records at the center of Creatio's CRM model; commonly synced with ERP customer masters. Compensation Summary & Pay Adjustments is specific to Ceridian Dayforce and Accounts to Creatio CRM — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Employee Punches & Raw Clock Entries Time-and-attendance punches; raw clock entries are added with POST and punches removed with DELETE, so time data flows both ways between Dayforce and scheduling or workforce tools. Contacts Person records linked to accounts, activities, and cases. Employee Punches & Raw Clock Entries is specific to Ceridian Dayforce and Contacts to Creatio CRM — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Employee Schedules Shift and schedule assignments; created and updated through POST and PATCH schedule endpoints and paged with pageSize, used to push schedules from a WFM tool or pull them for analytics. Leads Inbound interest records qualified into opportunities; synced for funnel reporting. Employee Schedules is specific to Ceridian Dayforce and Leads to Creatio CRM — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Org Units, Departments, Jobs & Positions Configuration reference data; POST creates org units and departments and PATCH updates job, position, department, and org-unit data. Used to resolve and validate XRefCodes when mapping employee writes. Opportunities Deal records with stages and amounts used in revenue syncs. Org Units, Departments, Jobs & Positions is specific to Ceridian Dayforce and Opportunities to Creatio CRM — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Ceridian Dayforce and Creatio CRM

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.

Ceridian Dayforce Creatio CRM Sub-second propagation

DetectionCeridian Dayforce notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. No CDC stream.

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

Creatio CRM Ceridian Dayforce Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Creatio CRM for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling on ModifiedOn system columns.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Ceridian Dayforce: Dayforce does not publish numeric rate limits; thresholds vary by tenant and exceeding them returns HTTP 429, so large employee reads are paged (pageSize) and throttled with backoff. Employee list calls return XRefCodes only, so each employee needs a follow-up GET.
  • Creatio CRM: Subject to the platform's API rate limits.

How the Ceridian Dayforce and Creatio CRM connectors work

Ceridian Dayforce

Integration surface
REST API (Dayforce RESTful Web Services, v1/v2), JSON payloads
Authentication
HTTP Basic authentication with a dedicated Web Services user plus the client namespace (Company ID), or an OAuth 2.0 access token from the Dayforce identity endpoint (POST dfid.dayforcehcm.com/connect/token, client_id Dayforce.HCMAnywhere.Client). Token-based auth is recommended, and the Web Services role with the Read Data subfeature must be enabled on the account.
Change detection
No CDC stream. Broad change detection uses delta polling on GET Employees with filterUpdatedStartDate/filterUpdatedEndDate and filterUpdatedEntities to pull only records changed in a window. Dayforce also has native Event Notifications (the Notification Publisher) for lifecycle events — hire, rehire, terminate, and workflow validation — delivered by push to a receiver service or by querying unacknowledged notifications; the publisher runs roughly hourly and each notification must be acknowledged.
