Why teams connect Infor CloudSuite and Paylocity

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

Paylocity 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 CloudSuite 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 Purchase orders, Invoices, Inventory balances, GL journal entries in Infor CloudSuite with Earnings (Pay Setup), Local and State Taxes, Direct Deposit, Pay Statements in Paylocity 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 CloudSuite 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 Align the ERP customer master with billing and support systems so finance and CX share one account record.
  • 02 Sync items, customers, and orders between CloudSuite and a CRM so sales quotes against live pricing and inventory.
  • 03 Upsert recurring Deductions and Earnings on employee records when benefits or 401(k) elections change in a benefits admin system, without re-keying payroll setup.
  • 04 Read Pay Statements and Direct Deposit allocations into a Postgres or warehouse database for labor-cost, GL, and headcount reporting in SQL.

Common sync patterns

New hires ready to transact in Infor CloudSuite

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

One org structure

Departments, cost centers, and locations that both systems reference stay in agreement, so labor cost, approvals, and reporting in Infor CloudSuite roll up to the same structure Paylocity maintains.

Reporting lines drive approvals

Manager and reporting-hierarchy changes in Paylocity keep expense and purchase approval chains in Infor CloudSuite pointed at the right people.

How changes propagate between Infor CloudSuite 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.

Infor CloudSuite Paylocity Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Infor CloudSuite 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 Paylocity through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Paylocity Infor CloudSuite 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 written to Infor CloudSuite through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Rate-limit considerations

  • Infor CloudSuite: Subject to the ION API gateway's rate limiting policies for the tenant.
  • 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).
