How does Xoxoday Empuls integrate with SAP SuccessFactors?

​

Certified SAP SuccessFactors Integration

Xoxoday Empuls holds certified marketplace vendor status on SAP SuccessFactors, meaning the integration meets SAP’s established standards for security, functionality, and compliance. This certification gives your organisation confidence that the connection has been validated against enterprise-grade requirements before deployment.

​

Two Integration Methods to Fit Your IT Environment

Xoxoday Empuls supports two distinct approaches, allowing your team to choose what aligns with your infrastructure. OData API integration enables real-time data exchange between SAP SuccessFactors and Xoxoday Empuls — the right choice for organisations that need employee records updated the moment changes occur in SuccessFactors. SFTP-based integration offers secure, scheduled batch transfers for organisations that prefer periodic syncs on a defined cadence. Neither method requires middleware. Both connect directly to SAP SuccessFactors, which simplifies deployment, reduces points of failure, and lowers ongoing maintenance overhead for your IT team.

​

What Gets Synchronised Automatically

Once the integration is active, Xoxoday Empuls syncs employee data with SAP SuccessFactors every 24 hours. New employees are added to Xoxoday Empuls automatically when their SuccessFactors profile is created. Updates made in SuccessFactors — a promotion, department transfer, or location change — reflect in Xoxoday Empuls without manual intervention. When an employee’s exit date is recorded in SuccessFactors, Xoxoday Empuls removes them from the system accordingly. This end-to-end lifecycle automation is especially valuable for organisations running service award programmes at scale. A global workforce using SAP SuccessFactors as its system of record can trigger anniversary recognitions and tenure-based rewards in Xoxoday Empuls directly from SuccessFactors data, without HR teams manually maintaining eligibility lists.

​

Data Security and Compliance

Both integration methods in Xoxoday Empuls adhere to strict data security protocols throughout the sync process. Sensitive employee information is safeguarded in line with standards including ISO 27001 and SOC 2 Type II. Your organisation retains control over which data fields are synchronised and how access is governed across both systems.

​

Getting Started

Activating the SAP SuccessFactors integration is managed through the integrations section of the Xoxoday Empuls admin console. Your IT or HR operations team selects the preferred integration method, configures the connection credentials, and enables the 24-hour sync cycle. Xoxoday Empuls provides detailed setup documentation for both OData API and SFTP configurations.
