Why teams connect SAP and Workday
Keep Workday and SAP 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 Compensation, Time Off and Absence, Payroll Results, Suppliers in Workday with Sales Orders, Purchase Orders, Outbound Deliveries, Billing Documents in SAP 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
- Replicate worker, organization, and compensation data into a secured database for people analytics without giving analysts tenant access.
- Push completed payroll results into a finance system or data warehouse each pay cycle.
- Publish plant-level inventory to e-commerce and planning systems on change or on schedule.
- Replicate journal entries and billing documents to a warehouse for finance analytics without loading the ERP.
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 SAP is the group system, transactions and customer records roll up continuously, so consolidation starts from live data.
Where Workday handles billing: invoices land in SAP
Invoices and payment activity from the billing side post through to the enterprise system automatically.
What you can sync between SAP 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.
| SAP objects | Workday objects | |
|---|---|---|
| Billing Documents Invoices read for AR status and replicated for revenue reporting. | Positions Job seats synced with recruiting and planning tools. | |
| GL Accounts and Journal Entries Financial postings replicated to warehouses for group finance analytics. | Compensation Pay components read into payroll, planning, and equity systems under strict access control. | |
| Production Orders Manufacturing orders exchanged with MES and scheduling systems. | Time Off and Absence Balances and requests synced with scheduling and workforce tools. | |
| Inventory / Stock Plant and storage-location quantities synced to storefronts and planning tools. | Payroll Results Completed pay data exported to finance and benefits systems. | |
| Cost Centers Controlling masters read for mapping costs in finance integrations. | Suppliers Workday Financials vendor records aligned with procurement tools. | |
| Business Partners The unified customer and supplier master in S/4HANA, the anchor object for CRM and procurement syncs. | Customers and Invoices Financials receivables objects synced for billing visibility where Workday Financials is used. |

How the SAP and Workday connectors work
SAP
- Integration surface
- OData (v2/v4) APIs on S/4HANA; BAPI/RFC and IDoc on ECC and on-prem systems; SOAP services
- Authentication
- OAuth 2.0 or basic auth via communication arrangements on cloud editions; SAP user credentials for RFC on-prem
- Change detection
- Business events via SAP Event Mesh on S/4HANA; change pointers with IDocs or timestamp polling on ECC
- Capabilities
- read · write · webhooks
- Rate limits
- Throttling is configured at the gateway and tenant level rather than as a single published rate limit
Workday
- Integration surface
- SOAP Workday Web Services (WWS), a REST API, and Reports-as-a-Service (RaaS) endpoints for custom reports
- Authentication
- OAuth 2.0 for the REST API; integration system users with WS-Security or certificate-based auth for SOAP
- Change detection
- Polling, including transaction-log criteria on SOAP operations to fetch objects changed since a given moment; no general webhook surface
- Capabilities
- read · write

FAQ
SAP and Workday integration FAQ
-
Yes. Stacksync provides a managed, real-time two-way integration between SAP and Workday: authenticate both systems, choose the objects to sync (such as SAP's Billing Documents and GL Accounts and Journal Entries), map fields visually, and changes propagate both ways in milliseconds — no code required.
-
Stacksync pricing is usage-based and starts at $1,000/month, including the managed SAP and Workday connectors, real-time two-way sync, monitoring, and support. That replaces building and maintaining a custom SAP–Workday integration in-house.
-
Yes — Stacksync ships production-grade connectors for both SAP and Workday. The connectors handle authentication, schema detection, rate limits, and retries; you configure the sync, and Stacksync operates it.
-
Change detection on SAP: Business events via SAP Event Mesh on S/4HANA; change pointers with IDocs or timestamp polling on ECC. On Workday: Polling, including transaction-log criteria on SOAP operations to fetch objects changed since a given moment; no general webhook surface. Each detected change propagates to the other side in milliseconds, with field-level conflict resolution and an inspectable event log.
-
On the Workday side: Compensation, Time Off and Absence, Payroll Results, Suppliers, plus custom fields where Workday exposes them. On the SAP side: Sales Orders, Purchase Orders, Outbound Deliveries, Billing Documents. Stacksync auto-detects both schemas and converts types between the two systems.
-
Yes. Each object mapping can be bidirectional or restricted to a single direction (both systems accept writes). Read-only mirrors, one-way pushes, and full two-way sync can be mixed in the same integration.
