Connectors Management for Administrators

Manage CRM Exception Field Values

Overview

When integrating the UPM with various CRM systems like Salesforce or HubSpot, it's often necessary to synchronize data fields that may have different names or value sets in each system. This 'Manage CRM Exception Field Values' feature provides the granular control needed to define these specific mappings. For example, a 'Sales Stage' in one CRM might be 'Deal Status' in another, or the values for 'Closed Won' might differ. This tool allows administrators to precisely configure how these discrepancies are resolved, ensuring that data flows accurately and consistently between the UPM and connected CRM platforms.

By managing these exception field values, administrators can prevent data integrity issues, streamline reporting, and ensure that automated workflows triggered by CRM data (e.g., deal stage changes) function correctly within the UPM. This is particularly crucial for modules like Sell, where lead and deal data are frequently exchanged with CRM systems, impacting partner incentives and pipeline management.

Accessing the CRM Exception Field Values

The Manage CRM Exception Field Values screen allows administrators to define and manage specific field value mappings between the platform and integrated CRM systems. This is crucial for ensuring data consistency and accurate synchronization, especially when CRM systems use different terminology or value sets for fields that correspond to platform attributes. By configuring these exception values, administrators can prevent data discrepancies that might arise during bi-directional synchronization or when data is pulled from the CRM into the platform, ensuring that business logic and reporting are based on harmonized data.

Select "Manage CRM Exception Field Values" from the "Connectors" section of the left navigation menu to view the list of configured CRM exception field values.
