Why teams connect Greenhouse and NetSuite

Sync the workers, org structure, and cost centers that NetSuite and Greenhouse share in real time, so the people Greenhouse manages stay current in the system that runs finance and operations.

Greenhouse 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. NetSuite 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 Billing Schedule Customer Subsidiary Relationship, Account, Accounting Period, Bin Transfer in NetSuite with Departments and Offices, Candidates, Applications, Jobs in Greenhouse 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 NetSuite 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 journal entries and transaction lines into a warehouse for financial reporting without CSV exports.
  • 02 Sync customers, sales orders, and invoices to an operational Postgres database so teams query ERP data without writing SuiteScript.
  • 03 Stream Jobs, Departments, and Offices into a reporting database for recruiting funnel and time-to-fill dashboards.
  • 04 Export Scorecards and Scheduled Interviews to a data warehouse to analyze interviewer load and interview outcomes.

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 NetSuite roll up to the same structure Greenhouse maintains.

Reporting lines drive approvals

Manager and reporting-hierarchy changes in Greenhouse keep expense and purchase approval chains in NetSuite pointed at the right people.

Where Greenhouse runs payroll: labor cost in the books

Pay and compensation data from Greenhouse posts into NetSuite as labor cost, so finance sees workforce spend without re-entering it by hand.

What you can sync between Greenhouse and NetSuite

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.

Greenhouse objects NetSuite objects How this pairing syncs
Applications Links a Candidate to a Job; carries current stage, status, and source. Movable, rejectable, and hireable through Harvest write calls. Currency Rate Synced with incremental and full sync per the Stacksync docs. Applications is specific to Greenhouse and Currency Rate to NetSuite — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Jobs Requisitions with openings, hiring team, departments, and offices; created and patched via Harvest, read out for funnel and time-to-fill reporting. Price Level Synced with incremental and full sync per the Stacksync docs. Jobs is specific to Greenhouse and Price Level to NetSuite — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Offers Offer records tied to an Application with status and custom offer fields; readable and patchable, commonly synced to HRIS on hire. Term Synced with incremental and full sync per the Stacksync docs. Offers is specific to Greenhouse and Term to NetSuite — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Scorecards Interviewer feedback and ratings tied to interviews; read-only in Harvest, exported to a warehouse for interview analytics. Subsidiary Synced with incremental and full sync per the Stacksync docs. Scorecards is specific to Greenhouse and Subsidiary to NetSuite — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Scheduled Interviews Interview events with interviewers, times, and rooms; full create/update/delete support for calendar and reporting syncs. All custom objects Synced with incremental and full sync per the Stacksync docs. Scheduled Interviews is specific to Greenhouse and All custom objects to NetSuite — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Users Greenhouse users (recruiters, hiring managers); read and written, and referenced by the On-Behalf-Of header on every write. Nexus Synced with incremental and full sync per the Stacksync docs. Users is specific to Greenhouse and Nexus to NetSuite — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Greenhouse and NetSuite

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.

Greenhouse NetSuite Sub-second propagation

DetectionGreenhouse notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. HMAC-SHA256 signed webhooks for candidate, application, job, and interview events, plus polling list endpoints with created_after / updated_after /.

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

NetSuite Greenhouse Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls NetSuite for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling on lastModifiedDate via SuiteQL or saved searches.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Greenhouse: Harvest enforces a per-integration limit over a rolling 10-second window (X-RateLimit-Limit, commonly 50 requests / 10s for approved integrations); responses carry X-RateLimit-Remaining and, on a 429, X-RateLimit-Reset and Retry-After.
  • NetSuite: API concurrency is governed per account; sync tools queue and throttle requests.
