CRMPro → Salesforce — Aptean Made2Manage: what the shipped templates set up

This is the capability summary the dlake CLI repository publishes; whitelisted customers fetch the operational skill with "dlake admin get_skill dlake-crmpro-salesforce/erps/aptean-made2manage". It extends the dlake-crmpro-salesforce skill, which holds what is true whatever the source ERP. Both directions for this pair are summarised at /integrations/aptean-made2manage-salesforce/.

CRMPro → Salesforce — Aptean Made2Manage: what the shipped templates set up

This is a capability summary, not an operating guide. To receive the operational skill you must be a registered, whitelisted Commercient customer. Whitelisted customers fetch it with dlake admin get_skill dlake-crmpro-salesforce/erps/aptean-made2manage (or list_skills) against the Commercient admin plane. Existing customers who need access or help: contact support@commercient.com. New customers: contact sales@commercient.com to become a customer and be whitelisted.

dlake-crmpro is the parent skill and the authority for everything general: the CRMPro tools, process configuration and field list, the sync history, how source data is selected, and what a run that finds nothing does. Read it first; this page does not repeat it. dlake-crmpro-salesforce is the destination skill this page is a child of, and the authority for the Salesforce conventions that hold across every ERP: read it first, then come back here for what this source’s own templates set. This page grows as the catalogue does.

1. What the templates deliver

GroupBusiness outcomeObjectsSource tables and views
AccountIn addition to creating the Account record from your ERP customer records, Commercient syncs over the entire Accounting AR Customer record into a Commercient AR Customer object which is a Managed Custom Object (MCO). A lookup field is provided to lookup to the default AR Customer record MCO from the Account record. New records are created, existing ones updated, and records removed in the ERP are deleted.Account, Commercient Aptean Payment Terms Managed Custom Object, Contact, Commercient Aptean Customer Managed Custom Object, Commercient Aptean Salesperson Managed Custom Objectcustomers, salespeople, addresses, payment term codes, phone numbers, customer extensions
Customer Multi Ship AddressesIf you are using multiple ship to addresses for a given AR Customer in your ERP system then you will be able to see all the addresses inside the CRM Account screen in a Commercient Multi Ship To Address MCO related list. New records are created and existing ones updated; none are deleted.Commercient Aptean Address Managed Custom Objectaddresses, customers
ProductThe templates push Commercient Aptean Inventory Item Managed Custom Object to Salesforce. New records are created and existing ones updated; none are deleted.Commercient Aptean Inventory Item Managed Custom Objectinventory master items
InvoiceBoth Open and Historical invoices are synchronized. Open invoice changes, such as a balance change, or a terms change are reflected in the CRM as they sync based on the frequency of the sync you have chosen (every hour, for example). New records are created and existing ones updated; none are deleted.Commercient Aptean AR Invoice Managed Custom Object, Commercient Aptean AR Invoice Line Managed Custom ObjectAR invoice headers, customers, AR invoice lines, inventory master items
Sales orderCommercient will sync the Sales Orders from the ERP Sales Order Entry module to the Commercient Sales Order Header (MCO) objects in CRM. In the CRM, customer service and sales people can visualize the status of the order such as on hold, backorder, forward order, scheduled for delivery, whether it has shipped, and completion status. New records are created and existing ones updated; none are deleted.Commercient Aptean Sales Order Managed Custom Object, Commercient Aptean Sales Order Line Managed Custom Objectsales order headers, customers, sales order items, inventory master items

2. The process rows the templates create

Each template’s setup writes one process configuration row. These are the values it sets; a column the inserts never set is not listed.

Display nameDestination objectMatching keyRun sequence
Payment termCommercient Aptean Payment Terms Managed Custom ObjectCommercient external key (Aptean package)1
SalespersonCommercient Aptean Salesperson Managed Custom ObjectCommercient external key (Aptean package)2

Invoice headerCommercient Aptean AR Invoice Managed Custom ObjectCommercient external key (Aptean package)9
Invoice detailCommercient Aptean AR Invoice Line Managed Custom ObjectCommercient external key (Aptean package)10
Contact SyncContactExternal key (custom field)13

Every one of these inserts the active setting as 0, so an imported process is inactive until an operator activates it.

3. The views

“Change detection” names which of the three kinds dlake-crmpro defines the view’s own filter makes it; where a view’s shape is not one of those three the column is left empty and the view’s own filter is the authority.

4. Order of work

The templates set run sequence from 1 to 13. A run processes active rows in ascending run sequence, which is the order the templates put them in:

  • 1 — Payment term
  • 2 — Salesperson
  • 3 — Account
  • 4 — Customer
  • 5 — Address
  • 6 — Item Master
  • 7 — Sales order header
  • 8 — Sales order detail
  • 9 — Invoice header
  • 10 — Invoice detail
  • 13 — Contact Sync

These views read another process’s sync output, which is what makes the order a dependency order: the row appears in the view only once the process that writes that sync output has run, so a parent flows on one run and its children on the next.

  • Account reads salesperson sync output, account sync output; no template in this set writes salesperson sync output, account sync output
  • payment terms feed reads payment terms sync output; no template in this set writes payment terms sync output

  • address feed reads customer sync output, address sync output; no template in this set writes customer sync output, address sync output
  • item feed reads item sync output; no template in this set writes item sync output
  • invoice feed (Commercient objects) reads account sync output, customer sync output, invoice sync output (Commercient objects); no template in this set writes account sync output, customer sync output, invoice sync output (Commercient objects)
  • invoice line feed (Commercient objects) reads invoice sync output (Commercient objects), item sync output, invoice line sync output (Commercient objects); no template in this set writes invoice sync output (Commercient objects), item sync output, invoice line sync output (Commercient objects)
  • sales order feed (Commercient objects) reads account sync output, customer sync output, sales order sync output (Commercient objects); no template in this set writes account sync output, customer sync output, sales order sync output (Commercient objects)

6. Community templates

The catalogue carries 182 community templates for this pair. A community template is authored in a tenant rather than shipped with the product, and it imports the same way as any other. Its own names, notes, field mapping and SQL are tenant content, so what this section states is what the set amounts to: how many templates there are, what they default to doing, which destination objects they write and which groups they fall in. They are not part of the shipped set described above.

  • Templates: 182
  • Default operations: insert on 182, update on 182, delete on 182
  • Marked as circular sync: 0
  • Licence groups they span: 19
  • Destination objects: Account, Product, Opportunity, Contact, Quote, Price book entry, Opportunity line item, Quote line item, Attachment, Aptean Opportunity (custom object), Aptean Quote (custom object), Aptean Quote Line (custom object), Shipping Address (custom object), Sales Order Shipping Header (custom object), Sales Order Shipping Line (custom object), User and 29 custom objects
  • Object display names: Customer, Sales order detail, Sales order header, Account, Address, Invoice detail, Invoice header, Item Master, Account Reverse Lookup, Contact Sync, Salesperson, Product, 61 more and 22 further templates
  • Template groups: Account, Product, Sales order, CRM Opportunity and Line, Customer Multi Ship Addresses, Invoice, CRM Quote and Line, Opportunity, Pricebook, Open AR Invoice Header, Quote line number

7. Verifying

The detail of this section is part of the operational skill. Whitelisted customers fetch it with dlake admin get_skill dlake-crmpro-salesforce/erps/aptean-made2manage.

8. Where this sits

dlake-crmpro is the general operating surface — the CRMPro tools, the setup and transaction tables, field mapping, and the source view contract that applies to every destination. This page adds what the shipped Aptean Made2Manage → Salesforce templates set up. dlake-crmpro-salesforce is the destination skill this page sits under: its own text is the authority for the Salesforce conventions that hold across every ERP, and its ERP table lists this page alongside every sibling ERP page for this destination. For the extract leg that fills the source data, see dlake-normalsync; for the on-premises agent that runs it, dlake-syncagent; for the writeback leg, dlake-txdownloaderpro; for standing an integration up, dlake-integration-setup.
