Why teams connect Odoo and Workday

Keep Workday and Odoo agreeing on customers, invoices, and balances, whether they split the finance workload or one is replacing the other.

A dedicated finance tool and an ERP end up side by side for practical reasons: a subsidiary runs lighter software than headquarters, billing runs in a specialist system while the enterprise system holds the wider view, or the company is mid-migration and both are live. Whatever the split, the two systems describe overlapping customers and transactions, and that overlap drifts without a live connection.

Stacksync syncs Suppliers, Customers and Invoices, Journal Entries, Custom Reports (RaaS) in Workday with Employees (hr.employee), Projects and Tasks (project.project / project.task), Contacts (res.partner), Sales Orders (sale.order) in Odoo in real time and in both directions. You decide which system wins on which field, and every change made in one is reflected in the other within seconds instead of at the next batch run.

Common use cases

  • Import journal entries from external billing or expense systems into Workday Financials.
  • Keep supervisory-organization hierarchies aligned with planning and workforce tools that model the same structure.
  • Sync employee records from an HR system of record into Odoo for expense and timesheet workflows.
  • Sync Odoo contacts and CRM leads with an external CRM when sales runs outside Odoo but invoicing stays in it.

Migration without a hard cutover

When one system is replacing the other, run both in parallel with records matching until the switch is complete.

One customer and vendor master

Where both systems keep records of the same organizations, corrections made in either propagate to the other.

Subsidiary to headquarters

Where Workday serves a business unit and Odoo is the group system, transactions and customer records roll up continuously, so consolidation starts from live data.

What you can sync between Odoo and Workday

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.

Odoo objects Workday objects
CRM Leads (crm.lead) Leads and opportunities synced with marketing and enrichment systems. Payroll Results Completed pay data exported to finance and benefits systems.

Projects and Tasks (project.project / project.task) Work items synced with external project tools. Custom Reports (RaaS) Tenant-defined reports exposed as web service endpoints, often the practical read surface for syncs.
Contacts (res.partner) The unified person/company record used across sales, invoicing, and purchasing; the anchor for CRM syncs. Workers The central HCM record covering employment, job, and personal data; the anchor of most syncs.
