Why teams connect Ceridian Dayforce and Vtiger CRM

Keep the people who own accounts in Vtiger 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.

Vtiger 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 Organizations, Leads, Opportunities, Cases in Vtiger CRM 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 Vtiger CRM keeps ownership and territory current, and Stacksync resolves conflicts by the rules you set.

Common use cases

  • 01 Two-way contact and organization sync between Vtiger and a billing or ERP system.
  • 02 Sync Cases to an external help desk or engineering tracker so support and product teams work from the same tickets.
  • 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

One directory of people

A person's name, title, email, phone, or manager corrected in either system updates the other, so both stop maintaining separate copies of the same individual.

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 Vtiger 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 Vtiger CRM, so a new rep can start working accounts without waiting on a manual setup ticket.

What you can sync between Ceridian Dayforce and Vtiger 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 Vtiger CRM objects How this pairing syncs
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. Sales Orders Order records between quote and invoice, synced to fulfillment systems. Compensation Summary & Pay Adjustments is specific to Ceridian Dayforce and Sales Orders to Vtiger 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. Invoices Billing documents pushed into accounting software. Employee Punches & Raw Clock Entries is specific to Ceridian Dayforce and Invoices to Vtiger 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. Campaigns Marketing campaign records tied to leads and contacts. Employee Schedules is specific to Ceridian Dayforce and Campaigns to Vtiger 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. Contacts Person records linked to organizations; a core target for two-way contact syncs. Org Units, Departments, Jobs & Positions is specific to Ceridian Dayforce and Contacts to Vtiger CRM — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Time Away From Work & Balances Time-off requests and accrual balances read per employee; pulled into scheduling, payroll, or absence-reporting databases and used to reconcile leave against downstream systems. Organizations Company and account records. Time Away From Work & Balances is specific to Ceridian Dayforce and Organizations to Vtiger CRM — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Employee (HR / Person Details) Core worker record keyed by XRefCode; GET Employees returns matching XRefCodes, then a per-employee GET fetches full HR details. New hires are added with POST and edits made with PATCH, so it is read and write. Leads Unqualified prospects that convert into contacts, organizations, and opportunities. Employee (HR / Person Details) is specific to Ceridian Dayforce and Leads to Vtiger CRM — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Ceridian Dayforce and Vtiger 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.

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.
  • Vtiger CRM: Subject to the platform's API rate limits, which vary by edition.

How the Ceridian Dayforce and Vtiger 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.
