Why teams connect IBM Netezza and Paylocity

Land the people and organization records from Paylocity in IBM Netezza as live tables for workforce reporting, without extract jobs, and write computed results back where Paylocity can use them.

Workforce data is some of the most requested data in the warehouse and some of the most awkward to move: the record types are many, the fields carry sensitive personal information, the APIs are strict, and hand-built extract jobs go stale or break quietly. Whether Paylocity is the system of record for employees and payroll, for candidates and applications, or for learners and course completions, the reporting belongs in IBM Netezza next to everything else the company measures.

Stacksync syncs Employees, Onboarding, Deductions (Pay Setup), Earnings (Pay Setup) from Paylocity into tables in IBM Netezza continuously, handling API limits and schema drift as they come. The connection is bi-directional, so values computed in IBM Netezza, such as headcount rollups, cost allocations, or attrition risk flags, can be written back to fields in Paylocity where the HR team acts on them. You configure which records and fields cross over, and in which direction, instead of maintaining pipeline code.

Common use cases

  • 01 Keep Netezza and a cloud warehouse in sync during a platform migration so reporting stays consistent.
  • 02 Sync curated Netezza views into BI and finance reporting tools on a schedule.
  • 03 Read Pay Statements and Direct Deposit allocations into a Postgres or warehouse database for labor-cost, GL, and headcount reporting in SQL.
  • 04 React to the Employee Change webhook to pull the updated Employee record and propagate title, location, or manager changes to downstream apps within minutes.

Common sync patterns

Queryable history for planning and audit

A continuously synced copy in IBM Netezza gives you a durable, queryable record of how Paylocity's records change over time, for headcount planning and audit questions.

Write-back of computed values

Segments, rollups, or risk flags computed in IBM Netezza sync back onto the matching records in Paylocity, where the HR team sees them in the system they already use.

HR data in the warehouse, minus the pipeline

People and organization records from Paylocity arrive in IBM Netezza as queryable tables, current within seconds instead of a day behind, replacing hand-built extract jobs.

What you can sync between IBM Netezza and Paylocity

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.

IBM Netezza objects Paylocity objects How this pairing syncs
Databases Top-level containers that scope a sync connection. Deductions (Pay Setup) Recurring deduction codes at the employee level; two-way via Upsert Deduction and Delete, with Get Deduction / Get All Deductions for reads. Databases is specific to IBM Netezza and Deductions (Pay Setup) to Paylocity — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Schemas Namespace tables within a database. Earnings (Pay Setup) Recurring earning codes at the employee level; two-way via Upsert Earning and Delete, with Get All Earnings and Get by earning code for reads. Schemas is specific to IBM Netezza and Earnings (Pay Setup) to Paylocity — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Tables Distributed tables mapped directly to sync targets. Local and State Taxes Two-way via Create/Update/Delete Local Tax and Upsert Primary / Non-Primary State Tax; Get by tax code and Get All for reads. Tables is specific to IBM Netezza and Local and State Taxes to Paylocity — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Views Read-only projections used to shape outbound data. Direct Deposit Read-only: Get All Direct Deposit and Get Employee Bank Accounts return main and additional allocations. Bank details cannot be written through the API. Views is specific to IBM Netezza and Direct Deposit to Paylocity — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Materialized views Precomputed results sometimes used as efficient read sources. Pay Statements Read-only detailed payroll statement data — earnings, deductions, taxes, and direct deposit allocations by year, check date, or date range. Pulled for reporting, never written. Materialized views is specific to IBM Netezza and Pay Statements to Paylocity — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Sequences Key generators referenced when writing new rows. Company Codes Read-only reference codes and descriptions (cost centers, departments, positions) used to validate field mappings on employee writes. Sequences is specific to IBM Netezza and Company Codes to Paylocity — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between IBM Netezza and Paylocity

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.

IBM Netezza Paylocity Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls IBM Netezza for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling with timestamp or key-based cursors.

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

Paylocity IBM Netezza Sub-second propagation

DetectionPaylocity notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhooks — Paylocity POSTs Employee New Hire, Employee Change, Termination, Payroll Processed, and Time Off Approval events to a callback URL.

DeliveryEach detected change is applied to IBM Netezza as a row-level write, with types converted between the two schemas.

Rate-limit considerations

  • IBM Netezza: Bounded by appliance or instance capacity and concurrency settings.
  • Paylocity: 25 requests per second (1,500 per minute); exceeding it returns HTTP 429. Every path is scoped to a Paylocity-assigned companyId (a company code, not a UUID).

Change detection
Webhooks — Paylocity POSTs Employee New Hire, Employee Change, Termination, Payroll Processed, and Time Off Approval events to a callback URL; payloads carry only companyId and employeeId, so the receiver calls the relevant API to fetch changed values. Scheduled polling is used for objects without webhooks.
