Why teams connect Ceridian Dayforce and Linnworks
Sync the workers, org structure, and cost centers that Linnworks and Ceridian Dayforce share in real time, so the people Ceridian Dayforce manages stay current in the system that runs finance and operations.
Ceridian Dayforce 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. Linnworks 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 Locations, Purchase Orders, Suppliers, Channel Listings in Linnworks with Org Units, Departments, Jobs & Positions, Time Away From Work & Balances, Employee (HR / Person Details), Employment Status in Ceridian Dayforce 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 Linnworks 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 Mirror processed orders, refunds, and returns into a warehouse for margin reporting across channels
- 02 Sync product and listing data with a PIM so channel listings stay aligned with the catalog
- 03 Replicate Compensation Summary and pay data into a warehouse for headcount, labor-cost, and compensation reporting without manual BI exports.
- 04 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.
Common sync patterns
One org structure
Departments, cost centers, and locations that both systems reference stay in agreement, so labor cost, approvals, and reporting in Linnworks roll up to the same structure Ceridian Dayforce maintains.
Reporting lines drive approvals
Manager and reporting-hierarchy changes in Ceridian Dayforce keep expense and purchase approval chains in Linnworks pointed at the right people.
Where Ceridian Dayforce runs payroll: labor cost in the books
Pay and compensation data from Ceridian Dayforce posts into Linnworks as labor cost, so finance sees workforce spend without re-entering it by hand.
What you can sync between Ceridian Dayforce and Linnworks
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 | Linnworks 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. | Suppliers Vendor records keep procurement data consistent across tools. | Employment Status is specific to Ceridian Dayforce and Suppliers to Linnworks — 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. | Channel Listings Marketplace and webstore listing mappings tie channel products to internal SKUs. | Work Assignments is specific to Ceridian Dayforce and Channel Listings to Linnworks — 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. | Returns & Refunds Post-sale records flow to finance and support systems. | Compensation Summary & Pay Adjustments is specific to Ceridian Dayforce and Returns & Refunds to Linnworks — 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. | Shipping Services Carrier and service definitions support label and tracking data in order syncs. | Employee Punches & Raw Clock Entries is specific to Ceridian Dayforce and Shipping Services to Linnworks — 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. | Open Orders Unshipped orders aggregated from sales channels sync into ERPs and fulfillment systems. | Employee Schedules is specific to Ceridian Dayforce and Open Orders to Linnworks — 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. | Processed Orders Completed orders feed accounting and warehouse-based margin reporting. | Org Units, Departments, Jobs & Positions is specific to Ceridian Dayforce and Processed Orders to Linnworks — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. |
How changes propagate between Ceridian Dayforce and Linnworks
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 Linnworks Sub-second propagation
DetectionCeridian Dayforce notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. No CDC stream.
DeliveryEach detected change is written to Linnworks through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.
Linnworks Ceridian Dayforce Interval-based propagation
DetectionStacksync polls Linnworks for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling on order and stock endpoints.
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.
- Linnworks: Per-endpoint rate limits apply on the Linnworks API.

How the Ceridian Dayforce and Linnworks 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.

FAQ
Ceridian Dayforce and Linnworks integration FAQ
-
Yes. Stacksync provides a managed, real-time two-way integration between Ceridian Dayforce and Linnworks: 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.
-
Linnworks: The Linnworks API uses a token-exchange model: application credentials plus a per-account install token are exchanged for a session token that authorizes subsequent calls. Ceridian Dayforce: Auth is HTTP Basic (Web Services user plus client namespace) or an OAuth 2.0 token from dfid.dayforcehcm.com/connect/token; Dayforce does not publish numeric rate limits and returns HTTP 429 when a tenant's throttle is exceeded. Stacksync's field mapping accounts for these differences between Ceridian Dayforce and Linnworks without custom code.
-
Stacksync is SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001 certified with HIPAA BAA support. Data is encrypted in transit, and a zero-persistent-storage architecture means Ceridian Dayforce and Linnworks records are not retained after a sync operation.
