Why teams connect Salesforce and Ukg Pro

Keep the people who own accounts in Salesforce in step with the workforce records in Ukg Pro, so ownership, roles, and org structure stay current in both systems, in real time and in both directions.

Salesforce runs on people as much as on accounts: every contact, deal, and account has an owner, and those owners are employees whose roles, teams, and status are held in Ukg Pro. Ukg Pro is the system of record for the workforce, from new hires to promotions to departures, and often for the candidates the business is still deciding on. When the two systems are connected only by re-keying or an overnight export, they drift apart, and the CRM ends up assigning accounts to people who have left, holding territories that no longer match the org chart, and waiting days to give a new rep access.

Stacksync syncs Accounts, Contacts, Leads, Opportunities in Salesforce with Time & Attendance (UTA), Employee (Person Details), Employment Details, Job / Position History in Ukg Pro field by field, in real time, and in both directions. You decide which system owns which fields, so Ukg Pro stays authoritative on roles and org structure while Salesforce keeps ownership and territory current, and Stacksync resolves conflicts by the rules you set.

Common use cases

  • 01 Consolidate multiple Salesforce orgs into a single database for cross-org reporting after an acquisition.
  • 02 Sync Accounts, Contacts, and Opportunities bi-directionally with Postgres so engineering teams read and write CRM data with plain SQL.
  • 03 Push new hires (Employee, Employment, Job) into an ERP, IdP, or app database when onboarding completes so account, cost-center, and payroll setup fire on hire instead of manual report exports.
  • 04 Replicate Compensation and pay-statement / earnings history into a warehouse for headcount, labor-cost, and payroll reporting without manual BI exports.

Common sync patterns

New team members provisioned when they are hired

When Ukg Pro records a new hire, a matching user or owner is created in Salesforce, so a new rep can start working accounts without waiting on a manual setup ticket.

Ownership and territory follow the org chart

When a person changes team, manager, or region in Ukg Pro, their accounts and territory assignments in Salesforce update to match, so pipeline stays with the right owner.

Deactivate access when someone leaves

When Ukg Pro marks a worker as departed, the matching user in Salesforce is flagged or deactivated, so former employees do not keep CRM access after their last day.

What you can sync between Salesforce 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.

Salesforce objects Ukg Pro objects How this pairing syncs
Opportunities Deal records with stage and amount; synced to databases for pipeline reporting and to ERPs at close. 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. Opportunities is specific to Salesforce and Payroll (Pay Statements, Direct Deposit, Earnings) to Ukg Pro — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Cases Support records; synced with help desk tools or internal databases for escalation workflows. Terminations Termination transactions posted with a terminationDate and a reason code that must match the tenant's configured reason table; drives account deprovisioning. Cases is specific to Salesforce and Terminations to Ukg Pro — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Campaigns Marketing membership data; read out for attribution analysis in the warehouse. Configuration Setup (Code Tables) Reference data such as jobs, locations, positions, earnings, and deduction codes; used to resolve and validate field values when mapping records during sync. Campaigns is specific to Salesforce and Configuration Setup (Code Tables) to Ukg Pro — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Tasks and Events Activity records; usually read-only in syncs to feed activity reporting. Time & Attendance (UTA) Timekeeping and worked-hours data exposed by the UTA services; synced into scheduling, payroll, or workforce-analytics databases. Tasks and Events is specific to Salesforce and Time & Attendance (UTA) to Ukg Pro — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Products and Price Books Catalog and pricing data; commonly mastered in an ERP and written into Salesforce. 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. Products and Price Books is specific to Salesforce and Employee (Person Details) to Ukg Pro — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Custom Objects Org-specific tables with the __c suffix; discoverable via describe metadata so field mappings can be generated. Employment Details Employment status, hire and service dates, and company assignment; the record that drives active/terminated state for provisioning downstream. Custom Objects is specific to Salesforce and Employment Details to Ukg Pro — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Salesforce 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.

Salesforce Ukg Pro Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in Salesforce are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. Apex triggers are used whenever possible (Salesforce actively notifies Stacksync via an Apex trigger + callout class + remote site setting).

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

Ukg Pro Salesforce Sub-second propagation

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

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Salesforce: Daily API request allocations vary by edition and license count.
  • 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.

How the Salesforce and Ukg Pro connectors work

Salesforce

REST, SOAP, and Bulk APIs
Authentication
OAuth login via a Salesforce user (browser-based authorization flow); requires "API Enabled" permission for polling mode, plus "Author Apex" and "Customize Application" OR "Modify All Data" for trigger mode

Salesforce setup guide

Ukg Pro

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.
