Why teams connect DealCloud and Workday

Sync customers, invoices, and payment status between Workday and DealCloud in real time, so sales sees the money and finance sees the relationship.

Finance and sales describe the same customers in different systems. DealCloud knows the relationship: who the contacts are and what is in motion with the account. Workday knows the money: what was invoiced, what was paid, what is overdue. When the two are connected only by exports, each side works partly blind.

Stacksync links Workers, Organizations, Positions, Compensation in Workday to Investment, Relationship, Activity, Task in DealCloud with bi-directional, real-time sync. New customers, updated billing details, invoice status, and payment activity move in whichever direction you configure, field by field, with conflicts resolved by rules you set. The result is one version of each customer, visible from both sides.

Common use cases

  • 01 Sync worker records from Workday into IT and identity systems so hires, transfers, and terminations provision access automatically.
  • 02 Replicate worker, organization, and compensation data into a secured database for people analytics without giving analysts tenant access.
  • 03 Mirror DealCloud activities and tasks into an operational database to power internal dashboards without hitting the API on every read.
  • 04 Push portfolio and fund performance data from a warehouse into DealCloud so dealmakers see up-to-date metrics on each investment.

Common sync patterns

Where DealCloud tracks deals: closed-won creates the finance record

A won opportunity creates or updates the customer in Workday with the right billing details, so invoicing starts without re-keying.

Payment status on the account

Invoice and payment status from Workday appears on the account in DealCloud, so reps see overdue balances before they promise the next order.

Billing detail changes flow back

When a contact or address is corrected in DealCloud, Workday gets the update before the next invoice goes out.
