Why teams connect Microsoft Dynamics NAV and Ukg Ready

Sync the workers, org structure, and cost centers that Microsoft Dynamics NAV and Ukg Ready share in real time, so the people Ukg Ready manages stay current in the system that runs finance and operations.

Ukg Ready 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. Microsoft Dynamics NAV 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 Sales Orders & Invoices, Purchase Orders, G/L Entries, Item Ledger Entries in Microsoft Dynamics NAV with Benefits, Cost Centers / Groups, Reports (Report-as-a-Service), Employees in Ukg Ready 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 Microsoft Dynamics NAV 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 Sync customers, items, and orders between NAV and a CRM in both directions.
  • 02 Push ecommerce orders into NAV sales orders through published page services.
  • 03 Two-way sync Employees and Employment/Position records with an operational Postgres database so internal apps and IT provisioning read job title, department, and status in SQL while HR edits in UKG Ready.
  • 04 Import computed Earnings and deductions into UKG Ready payroll runs from a warehouse or external time-tracking system ahead of each pay period.

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 Microsoft Dynamics NAV roll up to the same structure Ukg Ready maintains.

Reporting lines drive approvals

Manager and reporting-hierarchy changes in Ukg Ready keep expense and purchase approval chains in Microsoft Dynamics NAV pointed at the right people.

Where Ukg Ready runs payroll: labor cost in the books

Pay and compensation data from Ukg Ready posts into Microsoft Dynamics NAV as labor cost, so finance sees workforce spend without re-entering it by hand.

What you can sync between Microsoft Dynamics NAV and Ukg Ready

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.

Microsoft Dynamics NAV objects Ukg Ready objects How this pairing syncs
Companies Per-company data partitions that scope every sync. Accruals / Time Off PTO balances, requests, and approver status; read for liability reporting and requests can be created against employee records. Companies is specific to Microsoft Dynamics NAV and Accruals / Time Off to Ukg Ready — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Customers Customer cards synced with CRMs so sales sees ERP balances and terms. Payroll (Earnings / Deductions / Employee Payroll Runs) Earnings and deductions can be imported into pay runs; Employee Payroll Runs (gross, net, taxes) read back for GL posting and analytics. Customers is specific to Microsoft Dynamics NAV and Payroll (Earnings / Deductions / Employee Payroll Runs) to Ukg Ready — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Vendors Vendor cards aligned with procurement and AP tools. Benefits Plan enrollments, coverage tiers, contributions, and effective dates; typically read into benefits or finance systems. Vendors is specific to Microsoft Dynamics NAV and Benefits to Ukg Ready — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Items Item cards and availability mirrored to ecommerce and planning systems. Cost Centers / Groups Departments, locations, and hierarchy used as org structure; read to align headcount and budget models across systems. Items is specific to Microsoft Dynamics NAV and Cost Centers / Groups to Ukg Ready — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Sales Orders & Invoices Sales documents created from external orders and read back for posting status. Reports (Report-as-a-Service) Scheduled IBM Cognos extracts used for bulk historical pulls that the per-employee REST endpoints are not built for. Sales Orders & Invoices is specific to Microsoft Dynamics NAV and Reports (Report-as-a-Service) to Ukg Ready — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Purchase Orders Purchasing documents reconciled with receiving and vendor systems. Employees Core person records (demographics, contact info, status, work location); synced two-way and mapped to HRIS or person tables in a database. Purchase Orders is specific to Microsoft Dynamics NAV and Employees to Ukg Ready — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Microsoft Dynamics NAV and Ukg Ready

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.

Microsoft Dynamics NAV Ukg Ready Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in Microsoft Dynamics NAV are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. Polling on modified/timestamp fields, or SQL Server change tracking/CDC on on-premises databases.

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

Ukg Ready Microsoft Dynamics NAV Sub-second propagation

DetectionUkg Ready notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. UKG Webhooks for select events (employee.created, employee.updated, account/org changes) with HMAC signing.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Ukg Ready: Rate limits apply over roughly a 1-minute window and return HTTP 429 when exceeded (back off / exponential retry); UKG Webhooks run on a tiered quota with a free tier around 10,000 event notifications per month and 14-day event retention.
