Sales and finance on one customer record
Building-products manufacturer.
The challenge
Sales worked in Salesforce while finance ran on Sage Intacct. Orders were re-keyed by hand, and reps had no view of credit holds or open invoices before promising delivery.
What we did
- Mapped accounts, orders, invoices and payments between the two systems and agreed one owner for each field
- Built a two-way sync with Apex and scheduled jobs, with logging and automatic retries
- Surfaced credit status and invoice history on the account page in Salesforce
- Added alerts so finance hears about any failed record before it becomes a problem
The outcome
Orders are entered once. Sales can see credit status before quoting, and finance no longer re-keys orders.
