The Salesforce lead property mapping feature in Aloware allows users to synchronize critical lead information effectively between these platforms. This functionality ensures that details such as phone numbers, email addresses, lead sources, and ownership fields are consistently updated, providing accurate and consistent records.

Step 1: Set up integration

  1. Refer to this guide to learn how to integrate Salesforce with Aloware.

  2. Select Leads as the object module for synchronization. Ensure that email addresses match between both platforms for successful updates.

Note - synchronization is limited to one object module at a time (either leads or contacts). Read this guide to sync contact properties.

Step 2: Configure field mapping

  1. Identify required fields for lead synchronization, such as phone number and email.

  2. Customize default open fields as per organizational needs.

Step 3: Synchronize leads

  1. Click the sync leads button to initiate synchronization.

Step 4: Verify data

  1. Review synchronization logs and validate updates.

  2. Check that fields like lead owner and lead source are correctly mapped.
