Why teams connect SAP Hana and Ukg Ready

Put your workforce data where your apps can reach it: SAP Hana and Ukg Ready share the same people, positions, and org structure in real time.

Ukg Ready is the system of record for the people side of the business — employees, candidates, roles, and the org structure around them. SAP Hana is where internal tools, dashboards, provisioning jobs, and analytics actually read and store records. The overlap is the workforce itself: Cost Centers / Groups, Reports (Report-as-a-Service), Employees, Employment / Positions in Ukg Ready need to exist as queryable Triggers, System-versioned temporal tables, System views (SYS schema), Column store tables in SAP Hana before an app can act on them. When that bridge is a nightly export or a hand-run CSV, every downstream system spends the day working from a roster that has already moved on.

Stacksync syncs Triggers, System-versioned temporal tables, System views (SYS schema), Column store tables in SAP Hana with Cost Centers / Groups, Reports (Report-as-a-Service), Employees, Employment / Positions in Ukg Ready field by field, in real time. You decide which system owns which fields — Ukg Ready typically owns identity and org attributes, while operational or computed values can flow back the other way — and Stacksync keeps every copy consistent, matching records on a stable key and resolving conflicts by rules you set.

The result is one live picture of the workforce on both sides: HR keeps its source of truth, and the database keeps a current mirror that internal apps, reports, and access controls can trust without a batch window in between.

Common use cases

  • 01 Detect inserts, updates, and deletes on high-write tables via AFTER triggers or a last-modified column and replicate the deltas downstream near-real-time.
  • 02 Read SYS.TABLES and TABLE_COLUMNS system views to auto-discover schema and generate field mappings when new tables are added to the sync.
  • 03 Feed Timesheet Entries and Accruals/Time Off into a data warehouse for labor-cost, overtime, and PTO-liability reporting.
  • 04 Mirror Cost Centers/Groups and Compensation into finance and planning systems for headcount and budget reconciliation.

Common sync patterns

Org and structure stay aligned

Groups, departments, managers, and reporting lines from Ukg Ready stay consistent in SAP Hana, so hierarchy-driven logic and permissions don't drift.

Computed and operational fields flow back

Values assembled or corrected in SAP Hana write onto the matching record in Ukg Ready where those fields are writable, keeping the people system enriched.

Mirror people records into the database

Records maintained in Ukg Ready land as queryable Triggers, System-versioned temporal tables, System views (SYS schema), Column store tables in SAP Hana, so internal apps and dashboards read live data instead of a periodic export.

What you can sync between SAP Hana 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.

SAP Hana objects Ukg Ready objects How this pairing syncs
Schemas Namespaces that group tables and views; the connector targets a schema and enumerates its objects from the catalog to build the sync. Benefits Plan enrollments, coverage tiers, contributions, and effective dates; typically read into benefits or finance systems. Schemas is specific to SAP Hana and Benefits to Ukg Ready — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Sequences Server-generated key values; relevant when writing rows into tables whose identity is assigned HANA-side rather than by the source system. Cost Centers / Groups Departments, locations, and hierarchy used as org structure; read to align headcount and budget models across systems. Sequences is specific to SAP Hana and Cost Centers / Groups to Ukg Ready — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Triggers AFTER INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE triggers capture changes into a shadow/logging table so updates and deletes are detected near-real-time without full scans. Reports (Report-as-a-Service) Scheduled IBM Cognos extracts used for bulk historical pulls that the per-employee REST endpoints are not built for. Triggers is specific to SAP Hana and Reports (Report-as-a-Service) to Ukg Ready — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
System-versioned temporal tables Column store tables with a history table tracking each row's validity period; used to reconstruct update and delete history for change capture. Employees Core person records (demographics, contact info, status, work location); synced two-way and mapped to HRIS or person tables in a database. System-versioned temporal tables is specific to SAP Hana and Employees to Ukg Ready — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
System views (SYS schema) Catalog and monitoring views such as SYS.TABLES and TABLE_COLUMNS; read to discover schema and auto-generate field mappings for new tables. Employment / Positions Job title, department, employment type, hire and termination dates; read for org modeling and written when roles change. System views (SYS schema) is specific to SAP Hana and Employment / Positions to Ukg Ready — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Column store tables HANA's default table type, optimized for analytics; synced two-way as rows over the SQL interface with the primary key driving upserts and delete tracking. Compensation Salary or hourly rate, pay frequency, and FLSA status; often mastered elsewhere and written onto the employee record, or read into finance. Column store tables is specific to SAP Hana and Compensation to Ukg Ready — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between SAP Hana 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.

SAP Hana Ukg Ready Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in SAP Hana are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. Polling on a last-modified timestamp column, or AFTER INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE triggers writing to a shadow table.

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

Ukg Ready SAP Hana 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 SAP Hana as a row-level write, with types converted between the two schemas.

Rate-limit considerations

  • SAP Hana: No SaaS-style request quota; throughput is bounded by connection limits, statement memory caps, and workload-class admission control (concurrency/memory limits) that share capacity with production queries.
  • 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.
