CRMPro → Salesforce — Infor Fourth Shift: 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/infor-fourth-shift". 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/infor-fourth-shift-salesforce/.

CRMPro → Salesforce — Infor Fourth Shift: 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/infor-fourth-shift (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 and existing ones updated; none are deleted.Account, Commercient Customer Master Managed Custom Objectcustomers, shipping locations
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 Shipping Location Managed Custom Objectshipping locations, customers
ProductThe templates push Commercient Item Master Managed Custom Object, Commercient Inventory Change Managed Custom Object, Product to Salesforce. New records are created and existing ones updated; none are deleted.Commercient Item Master Managed Custom Object, Commercient Inventory Change Managed Custom Object, Productitems, inventory changes
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 Invoice Header Managed Custom Object, Commercient Invoice Line Managed Custom Objectcustomer order headers, customers, customer order lines, invoice headers, invoice lines
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 Sales Order Header Managed Custom Object, Commercient Sales Order Line Managed Custom Objectcustomer order headers, customers, customer order lines

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
AccountAccountCommercient AR customer code1
Customer MasterCommercient Customer Master Managed Custom ObjectCommercient external key (Infor package)2
Customer to Account Reverse LookupAccountCommercient AR customer code3
Item MasterCommercient Item Master Managed Custom ObjectCommercient external key (Infor package)4
ProductProductCommercient external key (earlier package)5

WarehouseCommercient Inventory Change Managed Custom ObjectCommercient external key (Infor package)11
Shipping locationCommercient Shipping Location Managed Custom ObjectCommercient external key (Infor package)12

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 12. A run processes active rows in ascending run sequence, which is the order the templates put them in:

  • 1 — Account
  • 2 — Customer Master
  • 3 — Customer to Account Reverse Lookup
  • 4 — Item Master
  • 5 — Product
  • 6 — Product to Item Master Reverse Lookup
  • 7 — Sales Order Header
  • 8 — Sales Order Line
  • 9 — Invoice Header
  • 10 — Invoice Line
  • 11 — Warehouse
  • 12 — Shipping location

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.

  • customer account lookup feed reads customer sync output
  • customer feed reads account sync output
  • shipping location feed reads account sync output, customer sync output
  • product reverse lookup feed reads product record sync output (generic name)
  • sales order feed reads account sync output, customer sync output, sales order sync output, item sync output (generic name), sales order line sync output
  • invoice line feed reads invoice sync output, item sync output (generic name)
  • product feed reads item sync output (generic name)
  • sales order feed reads account sync output, customer sync output
  • sales order line feed reads sales order sync output, item sync output (generic name)

5. Field mapping

Each template carries its intended mapping in field mapping.

6. 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/infor-fourth-shift.

7. 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 Infor Fourth Shift → 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.
