Why teams connect Ceridian Dayforce and Greenplum
Land the people and organization records from Ceridian Dayforce in Greenplum as live tables for workforce reporting, without extract jobs, and write computed results back where Ceridian Dayforce can use them.
Workforce data is some of the most requested data in the warehouse and some of the most awkward to move: the record types are many, the fields carry sensitive personal information, the APIs are strict, and hand-built extract jobs go stale or break quietly. Whether Ceridian Dayforce is the system of record for employees and payroll, for candidates and applications, or for learners and course completions, the reporting belongs in Greenplum next to everything else the company measures.
Stacksync syncs Time Away From Work & Balances, Employee (HR / Person Details), Employment Status, Work Assignments from Ceridian Dayforce into tables in Greenplum continuously, handling API limits and schema drift as they come. The connection is bi-directional, so values computed in Greenplum, such as headcount rollups, cost allocations, or attrition risk flags, can be written back to fields in Ceridian Dayforce where the HR team acts on them. You configure which records and fields cross over, and in which direction, instead of maintaining pipeline code.
Common use cases
- 01 Consolidate data from multiple source systems into partitioned Greenplum fact tables.
- 02 Load operational data from CRMs, ERPs, and production databases into Greenplum for MPP analytics.
- 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
Queryable history for planning and audit
A continuously synced copy in Greenplum gives you a durable, queryable record of how Ceridian Dayforce's records change over time, for headcount planning and audit questions.
Write-back of computed values
Segments, rollups, or risk flags computed in Greenplum sync back onto the matching records in Ceridian Dayforce, where the HR team sees them in the system they already use.
HR data in the warehouse, minus the pipeline
People and organization records from Ceridian Dayforce arrive in Greenplum as queryable tables, current within seconds instead of a day behind, replacing hand-built extract jobs.
What you can sync between Ceridian Dayforce and Greenplum
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 | Greenplum 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. | Schemas Namespace tables and control which objects a sync can see. | Employment Status is specific to Ceridian Dayforce and Schemas to Greenplum — 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. | Tables Heap or append-optimized tables mapped directly to sync targets. | Work Assignments is specific to Ceridian Dayforce and Tables to Greenplum — 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. | Partitions Large tables are commonly partitioned by date, which shapes incremental reads. | Compensation Summary & Pay Adjustments is specific to Ceridian Dayforce and Partitions to Greenplum — 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. | Views Read-only projections used to shape data before syncing it out. | Employee Punches & Raw Clock Entries is specific to Ceridian Dayforce and Views to Greenplum — 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. | External tables Reference external files for bulk load paths alongside row-level syncs. | Employee Schedules is specific to Ceridian Dayforce and External tables to Greenplum — 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. | Rows Read and written by key; distribution keys determine where rows live. | Org Units, Departments, Jobs & Positions is specific to Ceridian Dayforce and Rows to Greenplum — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. |
How changes propagate between Ceridian Dayforce and Greenplum
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 Greenplum Sub-second propagation
DetectionCeridian Dayforce notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. No CDC stream.
DeliveryEach detected change is applied to Greenplum as a row-level write, with types converted between the two schemas.
Greenplum Ceridian Dayforce Interval-based propagation
DetectionStacksync polls Greenplum for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling with timestamp or key-based cursors.
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.
- Greenplum: Bounded by cluster resources and concurrency settings rather than an API quota.

How the Ceridian Dayforce and Greenplum 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.
- Capabilities
- read · write · webhooks
- Rate limits
- 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.
Greenplum
- Integration surface

FAQ
Ceridian Dayforce and Greenplum integration FAQ
-
Yes. Stacksync provides a managed, real-time two-way integration between Ceridian Dayforce and Greenplum: authenticate both systems, choose the objects to sync (such as Ceridian Dayforce's Employment Status and Work Assignments), map fields visually, and changes propagate both ways in milliseconds — no code required.
-
On the Greenplum side: Partitions, Views, External tables, Rows, plus custom fields where Greenplum exposes them. On the Ceridian Dayforce side: Time Away From Work & Balances, Employee (HR / Person Details), Employment Status, Work Assignments. Stacksync auto-detects both schemas and converts types between the two systems.
-
Yes. Each object mapping can be bidirectional or restricted to a single direction (both systems accept writes). Read-only mirrors, one-way pushes, and full two-way sync can be mixed in the same integration.
-
Common patterns for Ceridian Dayforce and Greenplum: Queryable history for planning and audit; Write-back of computed values; HR data in the warehouse, minus the pipeline. A continuously synced copy in Greenplum gives you a durable, queryable record of how Ceridian Dayforce's records change over time, for headcount planning and audit questions.

Authentication: Database credentials. Stacksync manages authentication, retries, and rate limits on both sides.
-
Greenplum: There is no logical-decoding-based CDC surface, so incremental syncs rely on timestamp or key-based polling. Ceridian Dayforce: Reads are two-step: GET Employees returns only the XRefCodes matching the filter, then a per-employee GET fetches full HR details, so large tenants require many paged requests. Stacksync's field mapping accounts for these differences between Ceridian Dayforce and Greenplum without custom code.
