Connecting Salesforce

to Lead Liaison

Follow these step by step instructions to connect your Salesforce.com account to Lead Liaison. 

Step 1: Add CRM Sync User

Lead Liaison requires one Salesforce.com user account be used as a sync account. The sync account is the account used to send data bidirectional, from Salesforce.com to Lead Liaison and from Lead Liaison to Salesforce.com. The sync account is required for operation and has no material impact on leads, contacts, opportunities or any other event.

Note

Salesforce.com suggests updating passwords every 90 days. If credentials for the sync account expire then syncing between Lead Liaison and Salesforce.com will fail. We suggest using a Salesforce.com Admin user as the sync account to use with Lead Liaison. See the section below called "Salesforce.com Password Profiles" for tips on how to set the password to never expire on your Salesforce.com user account. 

Follow these steps below to enter your CRM sync user:

Make sure to map all the custom fields added by Lead Liaison package (Lead Liaison Score, Total Activity, Total Web Visits, Total time spent on last visit, Last Sync to Lead Liaison Web App, Last Web Visit, Last Search Engine, Last Search Phrase, Original Referral Source, Bounced and Profile Identifier)


Info
titleMap Profile Identifier

Map only the "Profile Identifier" field. Do not map the "Profile ID" field. Lead Liaison adds the Profile Identifier field automatically. This field is a formula that builds the hyperlink for the Profile ID. By mapping the Profile Identifier Salesforce.com will automatically map the Profile ID value for you.

Removing the Lead Liaison Package

  • First, remove all dependencies. Dependencies must be removed first before uninstalling. For example, assigning the Lead Liaison Lead Layout to a profile is a dependency. Change the layout profile to another profile or the standard profile first.
  • Inside Salesforce.com go to Setup > Apps > Packaging > Installed Packages. If there are any dependencies removal will fail.
