Factorial Integration

Sync your time-off data from Factorial to Productive, ensuring HR management is consistent and up-to-date across platforms.

Updated this week

With the Factorial integration in Productive, you can effortlessly sync time-off categories and periods from Factorial to ensure your HR management stays simple and up-to-date.

Integration Setup

To set up the Factorial integration, follow these steps:


1) Access the App Marketplace

  • Navigate to Settings > App Marketplace in Productive.

2) Connect Factorial

  • Find Factorial in the list of available apps and click on Connect App.

  • Note that you must be an admin in Factorial to set this up.


​Sync Time Off from Factorial

Once integrated, the following details from Factorial will sync with Productive:

  • Time off periods (start and end dates)

  • Time off categories (e.g., vacation, sick leave)

  • Notes attached to time-off requests

  • Half-days off are supported. If a user books a half-day in Factorial, it will sync to Productive as a half-day time-off period.

Important to Note:

  • Only approved time off bookings are synced.

  • Factorial’s "Type of absence" translates to Productive's "Absence category."

  • Deleted time-off events sync every 3 days automatically, so no need for manual deletion.
