What syncs between Personio and Pike
| Personio | Pike | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Employee | Member | Matched by email |
| Department | Team | |
| Position | Position | |
| Employment status | Member status | A terminated employee becomes a deactivated member. History is kept |
| Work schedule | Weekly capacity | From the working hours |
| Approved absences | Time off | By absence type |
Approved time off creates Pike time off of the mapped type (defaults: vacation to Vacation, sick to Sick, parental to Parental, others to Vacation). That removes those hours from capacity, so allocations and utilization stay correct. Pending or rejected requests do not sync.
Sync compensation to cost profiles is off by default, and only admins and finance users can turn it on. When on, salary and pay period set the member’s cost profile, with the effective date from the HR system.
