Why teams connect Macola ERP and Ukg Pro

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

Ukg Pro 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. Macola ERP 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 Items, Sales Orders, Purchase Orders, Invoices in Macola ERP with Compensation Details, Payroll (Pay Statements, Direct Deposit, Earnings), Terminations, Configuration Setup (Code Tables) in Ukg Pro 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 Macola ERP 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 Push web or EDI orders into Macola order entry instead of rekeying them.
  • 02 Run continuous sync during a migration from Macola to a cloud ERP.
  • 03 Keep Configuration code tables (jobs, locations, departments, cost centers) aligned between UKG Pro and an ERP so org and cost-center hierarchies match.
  • 04 Two-way sync of Employee and Job Details (position, department, supervisor, location, cost center) into Postgres so provisioning, internal apps, and analytics read current worker and org data in SQL while HR edits in UKG Pro.

Common sync patterns

Reporting lines drive approvals

Manager and reporting-hierarchy changes in Ukg Pro keep expense and purchase approval chains in Macola ERP pointed at the right people.

Where Ukg Pro runs payroll: labor cost in the books

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

Where Ukg Pro is the worker system of record: one employee master

When a worker is hired, moved, or offboarded in Ukg Pro, the matching employee record in Macola ERP is created, updated, or deactivated, so the business system reflects the workforce as it actually is.

What you can sync between Macola ERP and Ukg Pro

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.

Macola ERP objects Ukg Pro objects How this pairing syncs
Vendors Vendor master data aligned with procurement and AP tools. Time & Attendance (UTA) Timekeeping and worked-hours data exposed by the UTA services; synced into scheduling, payroll, or workforce-analytics databases. Vendors is specific to Macola ERP and Time & Attendance (UTA) to Ukg Pro — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Items Inventory item master records mirrored to ecommerce and planning systems. Employee (Person Details) Core worker record with demographics and identifiers; read by listing employee IDs then fetching each profile, and created on hire via the personnel/onboarding endpoints. Items is specific to Macola ERP and Employee (Person Details) to Ukg Pro — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Sales Orders Order entry documents created from web or CRM orders and read back for status. Employment Details Employment status, hire and service dates, and company assignment; the record that drives active/terminated state for provisioning downstream. Sales Orders is specific to Macola ERP and Employment Details to Ukg Pro — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Purchase Orders Procurement documents reconciled against receiving and vendor systems. Job / Position History Effective-dated job, position, department, supervisor, location, and cost center; the most-synced record for org charts, provisioning, and analytics. Purchase Orders is specific to Macola ERP and Job / Position History to Ukg Pro — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Invoices AR documents synced to billing, CRM, and reporting destinations. Compensation Details Effective-dated pay rate and salary; usually read into a warehouse for comp reporting and writable as new dated changes through the compensation endpoints. Invoices is specific to Macola ERP and Compensation Details to Ukg Pro — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
GL Accounts & Journal Entries Financial ledger data replicated to warehouses for reporting. Payroll (Pay Statements, Direct Deposit, Earnings) Pay statements, direct-deposit accounts, and earnings history; read-only pay data replicated into finance and warehouse systems for labor-cost reporting. GL Accounts & Journal Entries is specific to Macola ERP and Payroll (Pay Statements, Direct Deposit, Earnings) to Ukg Pro — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Macola ERP and Ukg Pro

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.

Macola ERP Ukg Pro Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in Macola ERP are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. CDC or change tracking on the underlying SQL Server database, or timestamp-based polling.

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

Ukg Pro Macola ERP Sub-second propagation

DetectionUkg Pro notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. No CDC stream.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Ukg Pro: An API gateway throttles calls per client over a rolling window (typically per minute); UKG does not publish exact numeric thresholds. Exceeding the limit returns HTTP 429, and UKG recommends a roughly one-second looping backoff before resuming (a Retry-After header is not yet standard). Reads are offset-paginated.

Integration surface
REST API (UKG Pro HCM REST services) with separate Onboarding and Recruiting REST APIs, plus legacy SOAP-based UKG Pro Web Services
Authentication
Core HCM REST APIs use HTTP Basic authentication with a dedicated web service account, plus a Customer API Key and a User API Key sent as headers (found under System Configuration > Security > Service Account Administration); the Onboarding and Recruiting REST APIs instead require a bearer Authorization Token from the token endpoint.
Change detection
No CDC stream. UKG Pro publishes Pro HCM Webhook Events for changes such as new hire, employee and job detail changes, termination, and PTO, which Stacksync subscribes to for near-real-time triggers; bulk and historical loads use paged reads with each service's modified-since filters.
