Connect Rippling to Lightyear to automate purchasing access and keep your AP approval workflows aligned with current employee roles and departments.
The Rippling–Lightyear integration automates user provisioning in Lightyear's AP automation and purchasing platform based on Rippling employment data. Finance, operations, and procurement staff are provisioned into Lightyear with appropriate approval roles on hire and deprovisioned cleanly when they leave.
Lightyear streamlines purchase orders, supplier invoices, and multi-level approval workflows. Connecting it to Rippling ensures approval chains reflect the actual org structure without manual updates as teams change.
Companies using Lightyear frequently have approval chains that include former employees or don't reflect current reporting structures because the platform isn't updated when org changes happen in Rippling. Syncing approval roles from Rippling's job title and department fields keeps Lightyear's workflows accurate automatically.
thePeopleStack configures provisioning and role mapping between Rippling and Lightyear, ensuring procurement and finance staff get the right approval permissions on day one. We validate approval chain accuracy against the current org structure before go-live.
Lightyear integrations for thePeopleStack's Rippling clients are structured around US purchasing and AP workflows.
Canadian and cross-border operations: Lightyear supports Canadian businesses. For Canadian procurement staff, provisioning follows the same Rippling-driven lifecycle rules as US team members.
Lightyear automates AP and purchasing workflows including purchase order creation, supplier invoice capture, multi-level approvals, and payment scheduling for mid-market businesses.
