Click on Settings in the navigation menu, and then the Integrations tab.

Click the Connect button to start the guided process of linking your BambooHR account with Barley.

Step 1: Enter your Company's Subdomain

Enter your BambooHR subdomain and click Submit. You will be prompted to Open Window and log in to your BambooHR account.

Step 2: Map your Custom Data Fields

You will be asked to sync a few custom data fields between BambooHR and Barley.

The two custom fields are:

  1. Gender (Optional): For gender using a custom field (such as Men, Women, Non-Binary, and more) instead of the default field (Male, Female)

  2. Pay Change Reason: This captures reasons for pay changes, such as promotions or merit increases

Once you have mapped all two fields. Click Save mappings.


Step 3: Complete Sync

Your BambooHR data will begin to sync with Barley. Depending on the size of your organization, this can take up to an hour for the first sync.

A note on Variable Pay

In BambooHR, you may be storing Variable Pay in a number of ways. You could be using the default Bonus and/or Commission tables in BambooHR:

Alternatively, you may be using a custom table that captures On-Target Earnings (or what we call in Barley "Total Pay") along with Variable Pay:

If you are currently storing a form of Variable Pay, please contact Barley Support to map this data into Barley.

You’ve now successfully integrated Barley with BambooHR!
