Why teams connect Paylocity and SuiteAnalytics

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

SuiteAnalytics is a read-only source: Stacksync reads its data in real time and delivers it into Paylocity, so Paylocity always reflects the current state of SuiteAnalytics — without exports, scripts, or schedulers.

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. SuiteAnalytics 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.

Common use cases

  • 01 Give internal tools a read replica of item and inventory data without hitting SuiteScript governance limits
  • 02 Join ERP data with CRM data in Postgres for quote-to-cash and revenue visibility
  • 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

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

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

New hires ready to transact in SuiteAnalytics

A new person set up in Paylocity becomes an employee record in SuiteAnalytics 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 SuiteAnalytics roll up to the same structure Paylocity maintains.

What you can sync between Paylocity and SuiteAnalytics

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.

Paylocity objects SuiteAnalytics objects How this pairing syncs
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. Bin Transfer Synced with incremental and full sync per the Stacksync docs.

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. Currency Rate Synced with incremental and full sync per the Stacksync docs.

Price Level Synced with incremental and full sync per the Stacksync docs. Local and State Taxes is specific to Paylocity and Price Level to SuiteAnalytics — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
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. Term Synced with incremental and full sync per the Stacksync docs. Direct Deposit is specific to Paylocity and Term to SuiteAnalytics — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
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. Subsidiary Synced with incremental and full sync per the Stacksync docs. Pay Statements is specific to Paylocity and Subsidiary to SuiteAnalytics — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Paylocity and SuiteAnalytics

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.

Paylocity SuiteAnalytics 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.

DeliverySuiteAnalytics does not accept inbound record writes, so this direction carries requests rather than records: SuiteAnalytics's output flows back as field updates on the originating Paylocity records.

SuiteAnalytics Paylocity Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls SuiteAnalytics for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • 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).
  • SuiteAnalytics: Concurrency and query load are governed by the NetSuite account's Connect service allowances rather than per-request rate limits.

How the Paylocity and SuiteAnalytics connectors work

Paylocity

Integration surface
REST API (v1 and v2), JSON payloads
Authentication
OAuth 2.0 client credentials via the Paylocity Identity Provider (/IdentityServer/connect/token) with the WebLinkAPI scope; access tokens expire after one hour and API access must be enabled by Paylocity for the company
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.
