Why teams connect Ukg Ready and Zuora

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

Zuora 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 Invoice, Payment, Usage, Order and Amendment in Zuora with Cost Centers / Groups, Reports (Report-as-a-Service), Employees, Employment / Positions 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 Two-way sync of Accounts and Subscriptions with an operational Postgres database so product and finance teams read billing state in SQL while changes flow back into Zuora.
  • 02 Master the Product Catalog (Products and Product Rate Plans) in a database or PIM and write pricing changes into Zuora.
  • 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

New person becomes a known record in finance

When someone is added in Ukg Ready, a matching employee or payee record appears in Zuora, ready for payroll, expenses, or cost allocation without anyone rekeying the details.

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 Zuora current, so spend and headcount roll up the same way.

What you can sync between Ukg Ready and Zuora

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.

Ukg Ready objects Zuora objects How this pairing syncs
Benefits Plan enrollments, coverage tiers, contributions, and effective dates; typically read into benefits or finance systems. Product and Product Rate Plan (Product Catalog) The catalog of sellable products and their pricing; usually mastered elsewhere and written into Zuora, or read to map subscription charges. Benefits is specific to Ukg Ready and Product and Product Rate Plan (Product Catalog) to Zuora — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Cost Centers / Groups Departments, locations, and hierarchy used as org structure; read to align headcount and budget models across systems. Invoice Billing documents generated from rate plan charges and order line items; typically read out into an ERP or GL for revenue recognition and reconciliation. Cost Centers / Groups is specific to Ukg Ready and Invoice to Zuora — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Reports (Report-as-a-Service) Scheduled IBM Cognos extracts used for bulk historical pulls that the per-employee REST endpoints are not built for. Payment Payment and refund transactions applied against invoices; read for cash application, dunning, and reconciliation reporting in the warehouse. Reports (Report-as-a-Service) is specific to Ukg Ready and Payment to Zuora — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Employees Core person records (demographics, contact info, status, work location); synced two-way and mapped to HRIS or person tables in a database. Usage Metered consumption records; written into Zuora from a metering or warehouse pipeline so consumption-based charges are rated and invoiced. Employees is specific to Ukg Ready and Usage to Zuora — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Employment / Positions Job title, department, employment type, hire and termination dates; read for org modeling and written when roles change. Order and Amendment Records of subscription create and change actions; written to Zuora to drive quote-to-cash and read for subscription change history. Employment / Positions is specific to Ukg Ready and Order and Amendment to Zuora — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Compensation Salary or hourly rate, pay frequency, and FLSA status; often mastered elsewhere and written onto the employee record, or read into finance. Account (Billing Account) The customer billing entity holding contacts, payment methods, and billing settings; synced two-way as the parent record most other Zuora objects hang off. Compensation is specific to Ukg Ready and Account (Billing Account) to Zuora — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Ukg Ready and Zuora

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.

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

Zuora Ukg Ready Sub-second propagation

DetectionZuora notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Incremental extraction on the indexed UpdatedDate column via ZOQL/AQuA stateful mode (high-water mark), plus Callout Notifications (webhooks) for.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • 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.
  • Zuora: Concurrency limits: 40 concurrent requests by default, 80 for Object Queries, 200 for high-volume operations (doubled for Performance Booster); HTTP 429 on breach with exponential backoff; OAuth token endpoint is not bound by the limit.
