Dayforce

Visier can retrieve data through this connector if the following requirements are met.

For more information about the data that is retrieved through this connector, see Connector Definitions.

Prerequisites

• Create an integration user in Dayforce, formerly Ceridian.

Integration user

Create an integration user in your source system and assign it the appropriate security access so that Visier can retrieve your source data through this user.

Access	Description
HCM Anywhere > Web Services > Patch/Post HR Bulk Job	This allows the integration user to send data from Dayforce to Visier. The Dayforce connector requests EmployeeExportJobs, Employees, and ClientMetadata.

Connector credentials

How the connector loads data

Initially, data connectors retrieve a full history for each subject to generate an initial history of events. In each subsequent data retrieval, each connector handles the data load differently.

• Full load: All data from the source system is loaded into Visier.
• Delta load: Only changed data is loaded into Visier. A delta load may take either the entire history or a specific number of years of history for each changed record.
• Snapshot load: All data at a particular point in time. A snapshot load does not contain historical records or show changes over time.
• Partial load: A subset of data is loaded into Visier.

After the initial load, this connector only retrieves data for changed records.
