Why teams connect Success Factors and Vitally

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

Vitally 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 Success Factors. Success Factors 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 Custom Trait, Account, User, Organization in Vitally with Foundation Objects (FODepartment, FOLocation, FOCostCenter), Position, PerEmail and PerPhone, User in Success Factors field by field, in real time, and in both directions. You decide which system owns which fields, so Success Factors stays authoritative on roles and org structure while Vitally keeps ownership and territory current, and Stacksync resolves conflicts by the rules you set.

Common use cases

  • 01 Keep CS tasks and notes aligned between Vitally and ticketing or project tools.
  • 02 Sync account health scores and lifecycle stages from Vitally into a CRM so sales sees churn risk before renewals.
  • 03 Write updated PerEmail, PerPhone, and User attributes back into SuccessFactors from an identity or directory system so contact data stays current.
  • 04 Two-way sync of User and EmpJob (position, department, manager, cost center) into Postgres so provisioning, internal apps, and analytics read current org data in SQL while HR edits in SuccessFactors.

Common sync patterns

Deactivate access when someone leaves

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

One directory of people

A person's name, title, email, phone, or manager corrected in either system updates the other, so both stop maintaining separate copies of the same individual.

Where Success Factors tracks people the business also engages: contacts stay in sync

A person recorded in Success Factors, such as a candidate or applicant, can create or update the matching contact in Vitally, so relationship history and outreach are not rebuilt from scratch when the same individual appears in both.

What you can sync between Success Factors and Vitally

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.

Success Factors objects Vitally objects How this pairing syncs
User Core identity/User entity behind role-based permissions; a model distinct from Employee Central, synced two-way with a directory or IdP and downstream apps. User End users tied to accounts, including activity and custom traits. Same entity on both sides — records pair one-to-one and field-level changes reconcile in both directions. Custom fields on either side are included in the mapping.
Foundation Objects (FODepartment, FOLocation, FOCostCenter) Org-structure master data (department, location, cost center, division); mastered elsewhere and written in, or read out to build org charts. NPS Response NPS survey responses for account-health reporting. Foundation Objects (FODepartment, FOLocation, FOCostCenter) is specific to Success Factors and NPS Response to Vitally — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Position Position Management records for headcount and requisition planning; synced with an ATS or ERP to keep positions and reqs aligned. Custom Trait Custom account and user traits for segmentation. Position is specific to Success Factors and Custom Trait to Vitally — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
PerEmail and PerPhone Contact sub-entities under PerPerson; synced two-way with a directory or comms system to keep worker contact data current. Account Core customer account records with health scores and lifecycle traits; created, updated, retrieved, and listed via the REST API. PerEmail and PerPhone is specific to Success Factors and Account to Vitally — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
PerPerson Person-level container in Employee Central holding biographical data; effective-dated child entities (PerPersonal, PerEmail, PerPhone) hang off it. Organization Parent organizations for hierarchical B2B account structures. PerPerson is specific to Success Factors and Organization to Vitally — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
EmpEmployment Employment record tying a person to an employment period (hire, service dates); carries lastModifiedDateTime used for incremental polling. Task CS tasks and follow-ups, readable and writable for workflow sync. EmpEmployment is specific to Success Factors and Task to Vitally — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Success Factors and Vitally

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.

Success Factors Vitally Sub-second propagation

DetectionSuccess Factors notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Polling on each entity's lastModifiedDateTime / lastModifiedOn (effective-dated entities require date-range handling).

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

Vitally Success Factors Sub-second propagation

DetectionVitally notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Incremental polling on updatedAt cursors.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Success Factors: OData calls are throttled at the tenant level (Access Limits for OData V2); large reads must be paginated (default page size 1000) via $top/$skip or paging cursors.
  • Vitally: Default rate limit of 1,000 requests/min (token bucket); write operations consume more budget, headers expose remaining quota.
