Why teams connect Shopify and Ukg Ready

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

Shopify 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 Ready. Ukg Ready 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 Abandoned Checkouts, Products, ProductMedias, ProductVariants in Shopify 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 Ukg Ready stays authoritative on roles and org structure while Shopify keeps ownership and territory current, and Stacksync resolves conflicts by the rules you set.

Common use cases

  • 01 Write inventory levels from a WMS or ERP into Shopify locations to keep availability accurate.
  • 02 Mirror the product catalog from a PIM or database into Shopify products, variants, and metafields.
  • 03 Import computed Earnings and deductions into UKG Ready payroll runs from a warehouse or external time-tracking system ahead of each pay period.
  • 04 Create new-hire Employee records in UKG Ready from an ATS or onboarding workflow, including position, cost center, and compensation fields.

Common sync patterns

New team members provisioned when they are hired

When Ukg Ready records a new hire, a matching user or owner is created in Shopify, 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 Ready, their accounts and territory assignments in Shopify update to match, so pipeline stays with the right owner.

Deactivate access when someone leaves

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

How changes propagate between Shopify 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.

Shopify Ukg Ready Sub-second propagation

DetectionShopify notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhook topics per resource, with polling on updated_at as a fallback.

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

Ukg Ready Shopify 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 Shopify through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Rate-limit considerations

  • Shopify: GraphQL uses a calculated query-cost budget; the REST API uses a leaky-bucket model.
  • 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.
