Why teams connect Pigment and Ukg Ready

Keep the employee, department, and cost records that Pigment and Ukg Ready share consistent in real time, so the finance system and the people system stop drifting apart.

Pigment runs the money side of the company: who gets paid, what it costs, and which part of the business the cost belongs to. Ukg Ready runs the people side: who works here, which team they sit in, and how their employment changes over time. The two overlap on the same people and the same org structure, because every employee is also a payee and every department is also a cost center. When that overlap is maintained by hand, a new hire, a transfer, or a termination has to be keyed twice, and the two systems start to disagree about who is active and where the cost lands.

Stacksync syncs Tables, Scenarios, Data imports, Users and permissions in Pigment with Accruals / Time Off, Payroll (Earnings / Deductions / Employee Payroll Runs), Benefits, Cost Centers / Groups in Ukg Ready bi-directionally and in real time. A person added, updated, or deactivated on either side appears on the other within seconds, with field-level mapping and conflict resolution in place of CSV exports and nightly batch jobs.

That matters most when money follows a people event. A hire that finance can pay, a leaver whose access ends, a transfer that redirects cost to the right team, all happen from one change instead of two, so headcount and spend reconcile from the same set of records.

Common use cases

  • 01 Keep dimension lists such as departments and cost centers consistent with master data in the ERP.
  • 02 Sync headcount and compensation data from an HRIS into workforce planning models.
  • 03 Create new-hire Employee records in UKG Ready from an ATS or onboarding workflow, including position, cost center, and compensation fields.
  • 04 Feed Timesheet Entries and Accruals/Time Off into a data warehouse for labor-cost, overtime, and PTO-liability reporting.

Common sync patterns

One employee identity

A person's name, ID, or contact details corrected in either system update the other, so finance and HR reference the same person instead of maintaining two versions.

Department and cost-center alignment

The org structure maintained in Ukg Ready keeps the departments or cost centers in Pigment current, so spend and headcount roll up the same way.

Status changes propagate

A role, department, or employment-status change in either system updates the other within seconds, so cost allocation, access, and reporting reflect the current state.

What you can sync between Pigment 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.

Pigment objects Ukg Ready objects How this pairing syncs
Scenarios Versions such as budget, forecast, and actuals that give exported figures their context Benefits Plan enrollments, coverage tiers, contributions, and effective dates; typically read into benefits or finance systems. Scenarios is specific to Pigment and Benefits to Ukg Ready — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Data imports Scheduled loads that bring actuals from ERPs, CRMs, and HRIS into the model Cost Centers / Groups Departments, locations, and hierarchy used as org structure; read to align headcount and budget models across systems. Data imports is specific to Pigment and Cost Centers / Groups to Ukg Ready — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Users and permissions Access controls governing which model areas a sync can touch Reports (Report-as-a-Service) Scheduled IBM Cognos extracts used for bulk historical pulls that the per-employee REST endpoints are not built for. Users and permissions is specific to Pigment and Reports (Report-as-a-Service) to Ukg Ready — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Applications Planning models organized by domain such as finance, sales, or workforce Employees Core person records (demographics, contact info, status, work location); synced two-way and mapped to HRIS or person tables in a database. Applications is specific to Pigment and Employees to Ukg Ready — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Metrics Multidimensional values holding plans and actuals; the main target for inbound data Employment / Positions Job title, department, employment type, hire and termination dates; read for org modeling and written when roles change. Metrics is specific to Pigment and Employment / Positions to Ukg Ready — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Dimension lists Master data like accounts, products, or employees that metrics are sliced by Compensation Salary or hourly rate, pay frequency, and FLSA status; often mastered elsewhere and written onto the employee record, or read into finance. Dimension lists is specific to Pigment and Compensation to Ukg Ready — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Pigment 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.

Pigment Ukg Ready Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Pigment for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. No change feed.

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

Ukg Ready Pigment 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 written to Pigment through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Rate-limit considerations

  • Pigment: Subject to the platform's API rate limits.
  • 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.
