Why teams connect Close and Ukg Ready

Keep the people who own accounts in Close in step with the workforce records in Ukg Ready, so ownership, roles, and org structure stay current in both systems, in real time and in both directions.

Close 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 Ukg Ready. Ukg Ready 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 Contacts, Opportunities, Activities, Tasks in Close with Employees, Employment / Positions, Compensation, Timesheet Entries in Ukg Ready field by field, in real time, and in both directions. You decide which system owns which fields, so Ukg Ready stays authoritative on roles and org structure while Close keeps ownership and territory current, and Stacksync resolves conflicts by the rules you set.

Common use cases

  • 01 Sync Close leads and opportunities into Postgres or a warehouse for pipeline reporting outside Close's built-in reports.
  • 02 Two-way sync between Close and a billing or ERP system so closed-won opportunities create customers and invoices automatically.
  • 03 Two-way sync Employees and Employment/Position records with an operational Postgres database so internal apps and IT provisioning read job title, department, and status in SQL while HR edits in UKG Ready.
  • 04 Import computed Earnings and deductions into UKG Ready payroll runs from a warehouse or external time-tracking system ahead of each pay period.

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 Ukg Ready tracks people the business also engages: contacts stay in sync

A person recorded in Ukg Ready, such as a candidate or applicant, can create or update the matching contact in Close, 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 Ukg Ready records a new hire, a matching user or owner is created in Close, so a new rep can start working accounts without waiting on a manual setup ticket.

What you can sync between Close and Ukg Ready

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.

Tasks Follow-up items assigned to users; synced for workload and SLA reporting. Compensation Salary or hourly rate, pay frequency, and FLSA status; often mastered elsewhere and written onto the employee record, or read into finance. Tasks is specific to Close and Compensation to Ukg Ready — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Custom Activities User-defined activity types with their own custom fields, mapped like standard activities. Timesheet Entries Time-and-attendance punches, hours worked, and breaks; written from external time systems and read into warehouses for labor-cost reporting. Custom Activities is specific to Close and Timesheet Entries to Ukg Ready — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Custom Fields Org-specific fields on leads, contacts, and opportunities; addressed by stable field ids in syncs. Accruals / Time Off PTO balances, requests, and approver status; read for liability reporting and requests can be created against employee records. Custom Fields is specific to Close and Accruals / Time Off to Ukg Ready — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Users Sales reps referenced as owners on leads, opportunities, and activities. Payroll (Earnings / Deductions / Employee Payroll Runs) Earnings and deductions can be imported into pay runs; Employee Payroll Runs (gross, net, taxes) read back for GL posting and analytics. Users is specific to Close and Payroll (Earnings / Deductions / Employee Payroll Runs) to Ukg Ready — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Smart Views Saved lead searches that can scope which records a segment-based sync pulls. Benefits Plan enrollments, coverage tiers, contributions, and effective dates; typically read into benefits or finance systems. Smart Views is specific to Close and Benefits to Ukg Ready — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Leads The top-level record in Close; represents a company and holds its contacts, opportunities, and activity history. Cost Centers / Groups Departments, locations, and hierarchy used as org structure; read to align headcount and budget models across systems. Leads is specific to Close and Cost Centers / Groups to Ukg Ready — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Close and Ukg Ready

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.

Close Ukg Ready Sub-second propagation

DetectionClose notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhook subscriptions for record events, with polling on date_updated fields for backfills.

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

Ukg Ready Close Sub-second propagation

DetectionUkg Ready notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. UKG Webhooks for select events (employee.created, employee.updated, account/org changes) with HMAC signing.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Close: Subject to per-endpoint rate limits communicated in response headers.
  • Ukg Ready: Rate limits apply over roughly a 1-minute window and return HTTP 429 when exceeded (back off / exponential retry); UKG Webhooks run on a tiered quota with a free tier around 10,000 event notifications per month and 14-day event retention.
