If I have multiple CRM instances with my account, which one is used by the 'Quick Setup" for creating Data Integrity processes?

Data Integrity Dashboard will use the Salesforce CRM integration that is marked as the default integration for your account in the Quick Setup to create processes. When you use the Quick Setup option, a new process for managing accounts, contacts, and leads are created. For more information, read articles Setting Up an Integration for Salesforce CRM in Data Integrity and Creating an Account Management Process in Salesforce CRM in our Knowledge Base.

You can have a total of ELEVEN (active/inactive) processes - EIGHT processes for Account, Lead & Contact and an additional THREE processes for Email Validation.

What timezone does Data Integrity use?

In Data Integrity, all processes are created based on the users’ local timezone. However, the Data Integrity dashboard shows all data in Pacific Standard Time (PST).

What happens if an account has duplicate child companies in a family tree?

Data Integrity provides a Demandbase ID and Parent ID in the Account Hierarchy workflow. If Data Integrity finds duplicate children accounts with the same Demandbase ID, the system uses the first matched ID to decide which child account to use.

How can I avoid the Account Hierarchy linkages for certain accounts?

You can customize the Salesforce flow to select the first, last child, or filter out certain child records based on your business requirements. For example, if you have created deliberate duplicates in your CRM. You can filter out duplicates for which you don’t want to include in the Account Hierarchy linkage by customizing the Salesforce flow.

In the Account Hierarchy function, inactivate the flow and click Flow to customize the flow in Salesforce CRM.

Why is the Data Integrity Status of my record shown as “UnManaged”?

When the package is installed, the Data Integrity Status field is created with the default value as “UnManaged”. After an account, contact, or lead record is updated, the status will be updated to “Managed”.

Can I roll back a job or roll back changes to individual fields?

Although Data Integrity does not allow you to roll back changes to individual fields currently, Salesforce has field-level audits that can be used to roll back accidental changes. For more information, refer to Salesforce Online Help documentation. This can be cumbersome, and for this reason, it is best practice to periodically make a backup copy of your Salesforce data.

Do I have to add all industry values to the Industry field in Salesforce CRM?

No, you don't have to add all the industry values. Salesforce CRM allows you to push values outside the picklist to the Industry field. The exception to this is a restricted picklist, which only allows specific values.

Data Integrity can validate business emails for contacts and leads in your CRM, even if we do not have a match to those records. After you define which emails you want to validate, we leverage TowerData to ping email servers to determine whether or not the email and/or domain is valid.
 
Emails can be re-validated as frequently as once every three months. For more information, read the articles:
