Why teams connect Hibob and Infor LN

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

Hibob 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. Infor LN 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 Projects, Service orders, Items, Bills of material in Infor LN with Named lists, People (Employees), Employment, Work in Hibob 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 Infor LN 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 Replicate LN data into a warehouse for production, OTIF, and supply chain reporting.
  • 02 Run a two-way sync of business partners between LN and a CRM so sales and manufacturing share account data.
  • 03 Mirror Work data (department, site, manager, title) into an org-chart or reporting warehouse for headcount and structure analysis.
  • 04 Sync Time off requests and who's-out data into a scheduling or workforce-planning database for coverage and capacity reporting.

Common sync patterns

Where Hibob runs payroll: labor cost in the books

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

Where Hibob is the worker system of record: one employee master

When a worker is hired, moved, or offboarded in Hibob, the matching employee record in Infor LN is created, updated, or deactivated, so the business system reflects the workforce as it actually is.

New hires ready to transact in Infor LN

A new person set up in Hibob becomes an employee record in Infor LN in time to submit expenses, enter time, or approve a purchase, without waiting on manual setup.

What you can sync between Hibob and Infor LN

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.

Hibob objects Infor LN objects How this pairing syncs
Employment Historical table of job terms, contract, and working pattern under /people/{id}/employment; full CRUD, entries keyed by effectiveDate. Business partners LN's unified customer/supplier records matched against CRM accounts. Employment is specific to Hibob and Business partners to Infor LN — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Work Reporting line, department, site, and title under /people/{id}/work; drives the org chart and is synced two-way to directories. Sales orders Demand documents synced in from EDI and commerce channels. Work is specific to Hibob and Sales orders to Infor LN — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Salaries Compensation history at /people/{id}/salaries; full CRUD but gated behind the Payroll permission on the service user. Purchase orders Supply documents shared with supplier and procurement systems. Salaries is specific to Hibob and Purchase orders to Infor LN — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Time off Absence requests and who's-out data via /timeoff/employees/{id}/requests and /timeoff/whosout; submit new requests and read balances. Production orders Shop-floor work orders synced with MES for execution visibility. Time off is specific to Hibob and Production orders to Infor LN — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Lifecycle Hire, termination, and leave status changes at /people/{id}/lifecycle; read-only and the source of lifecycle webhook events. Warehouse / inventory Stock positions exposed so external channels reflect real availability. Lifecycle is specific to Hibob and Warehouse / inventory to Infor LN — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Documents Employee documents accessed under the Docs API; gated behind the Documents permission granted per service user. Projects Project structures used in engineer-to-order manufacturing scenarios. Documents is specific to Hibob and Projects to Infor LN — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Hibob and Infor LN

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.

Hibob Infor LN Sub-second propagation

DetectionHibob notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhooks fire for employee created/updated/deleted, table-entry created/updated, time off, and lifecycle events.

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

Infor LN Hibob Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Infor LN for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Event-style BOD publications through Infor ION where configured.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Hibob: Rate limits are enforced per service user; violations return HTTP 429 with X-RateLimit-Limit, X-RateLimit-Remaining, and X-RateLimit-Reset response headers. The docs list POST /people/search at 50 requests per minute, and bulk /people/search is preferred over per-record reads.
  • Infor LN: Subject to the ION API gateway's tenant rate limits in cloud deployments.

How the Hibob and Infor LN connectors work

Hibob

Integration surface
REST API (the Bob API)
Authentication
Service User credentials over HTTP Basic auth (Base64-encoded serviceUserId:serviceUserToken); permissions granted per data category (People, Payroll, Documents) in Bob admin
Change detection
Webhooks fire for employee created/updated/deleted, table-entry created/updated, time off, and lifecycle events; the employee.updated payload flags which fields changed and Bob recommends an API call for the full record. There is no CDC stream, and deleting a table entry fires no webhook (Bob has no table-entry deletion event).
