Why teams connect Ceridian Dayforce and SugarCRM
Keep the people who own accounts in SugarCRM 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.
SugarCRM 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 Custom modules, Accounts, Contacts, Leads in SugarCRM with Employee Schedules, Org Units, Departments, Jobs & Positions, Time Away From Work & Balances, Employee (HR / Person Details) 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 SugarCRM keeps ownership and territory current, and Stacksync resolves conflicts by the rules you set.
Common use cases
- 01 Consolidate data from an on-premise Sugar deployment into a cloud warehouse for reporting
- 02 Two-way sync between SugarCRM and an ERP so account, quote, and order data match in both systems
- 03 React to Dayforce Event Notifications for hire, rehire, and terminate to provision or disable IdP and app access and update downstream records as the changes post.
- 04 Replicate Compensation Summary and pay data into a warehouse for headcount, labor-cost, and compensation reporting without manual BI exports.
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 SugarCRM, 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 SugarCRM, 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 SugarCRM update to match, so pipeline stays with the right owner.
What you can sync between Ceridian Dayforce and SugarCRM
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 | SugarCRM 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. | Tasks Follow-ups attached to records across modules. | Employment Status is specific to Ceridian Dayforce and Tasks to SugarCRM — 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. | Campaigns Marketing efforts tied back to leads and opportunities. | Work Assignments is specific to Ceridian Dayforce and Campaigns to SugarCRM — 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. | Custom modules Modules built with Module Builder get the same REST endpoints as stock ones. | Compensation Summary & Pay Adjustments is specific to Ceridian Dayforce and Custom modules to SugarCRM — 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. | Accounts Company records, the usual join key against ERP customer masters. | Employee Punches & Raw Clock Entries is specific to Ceridian Dayforce and Accounts to SugarCRM — 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. | Contacts People linked to accounts, synced with marketing and support systems. | Employee Schedules is specific to Ceridian Dayforce and Contacts to SugarCRM — 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. | Leads Unqualified prospects that convert into contacts and opportunities. | Org Units, Departments, Jobs & Positions is specific to Ceridian Dayforce and Leads to SugarCRM — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. |
How changes propagate between Ceridian Dayforce and SugarCRM
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.

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.
- SugarCRM: Limits depend on the hosting model; on-premise instances are constrained by server capacity rather than fixed quotas.

How the Ceridian Dayforce and SugarCRM 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.

- 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.
SugarCRM
- Integration surface
- REST API with module-based endpoints

FAQ
Ceridian Dayforce and SugarCRM integration FAQ
-
Yes. Stacksync provides a managed, real-time two-way integration between Ceridian Dayforce and SugarCRM: 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 SugarCRM side: Custom modules, Accounts, Contacts, Leads, plus custom fields where SugarCRM exposes them. On the Ceridian Dayforce side: Employee Schedules, Org Units, Departments, Jobs & Positions, Time Away From Work & Balances, Employee (HR / Person Details). 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 SugarCRM: Where Ceridian Dayforce tracks people the business also engages: contacts stay in sync; New team members provisioned when they are hired; Ownership and territory follow the org chart. A person recorded in Ceridian Dayforce, such as a candidate or applicant, can create or update the matching contact in SugarCRM, so relationship history and outreach are not rebuilt from scratch when the same individual appears in both.

Ceridian Dayforce: 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. SugarCRM: REST API with module-based endpoints. Authentication: OAuth 2.0 access and refresh tokens issued by the Sugar instance. Stacksync manages authentication, retries, and rate limits on both sides.
-
SugarCRM: The module model is uniform: custom modules built with Module Builder expose the same REST endpoints and filtering as stock modules. 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 SugarCRM without custom code.
