Fields synced with Salesforce

The following fields are synced between Salesforce and the portal:

  • Type - Must be "Client" to create an account on the portal
  • Prevailing Service Level - Subscription tier displayed in Settings
  • CSM
  • Salesforce ID
  • Industry
  • Ticker/Exchange 
  • Renewal Date - 3BL Media Renewal Date
    • Note: CSRwire Renewal Date is stored in a different field.

There is a two-way sync between the portal and Salesforce, so some admin fields on the portal have been disabled so they can only be edited on Salesforce. If there is an issue with the data displayed on the portal for an account, check Salesforce to see if the data needs to be corrected there.

Existing client account

If there is a client account on the portal where the client name does not match the account name in Salesforce, the two accounts can be connected manually. In Salesforce, navigate to the client's account and go down to the "3blmedia.com Back End" section.

In the "Salesforce Info" section near the bottom of the page, enter the Salesforce Account ID that was copied. Click Save and the accounts should be connected within 90 minutes.

Note: If the portal account is already connected to Salesforce, the Salesforce Account ID and the Salesforce Update Hash cannot be edited.
