CRMPro → Salesforce — Workday: 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/workday". 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/workday-salesforce/.

CRMPro → Salesforce — Workday: 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/workday (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 Workday Customer Master Managed Custom Objectcustomers, customer addresses, customer extra data
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, existing ones updated, and records removed in the ERP are deleted.Commercient Workday Customer Address Managed Custom Objectcustomer addresses
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, existing ones updated, and records removed in the ERP are deleted.Commercient Workday Sales Invoice Managed Custom Object, Commercient Workday Sales Invoice Lines Managed Custom Objectsales invoices, sales invoice extra fields, sales invoice 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
Account CacheAccountCommercient AR customer code1
Account CreateAccountCommercient AR customer code1
CustomerCommercient Workday Customer Master Managed Custom ObjectCommercient external key2
Customer Reverse LookupAccountCommercient AR customer code3
InvoiceCommercient Workday Sales Invoice Managed Custom ObjectCommercient external key4
Invoice LineCommercient Workday Sales Invoice Lines Managed Custom ObjectCommercient external key5
AddressCommercient Workday Customer Address Managed Custom ObjectCommercient external key6

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.

ViewChange detectionSource tables
account create feedinsert + updatecustomers, customer addresses, customer extra data
customer feedinsert + updatecustomers, customer extra data
customer reverse lookup feedinsert + updatecustomers
invoice feedinsert + updatesales invoices, sales invoice extra fields
invoice line feedinsert + updatesales invoice lines, sales invoices
address feedinsert + updatecustomer addresses

4. Order of work

The templates set run sequence to 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6. A run processes active rows in ascending run sequence, which is the order the templates put them in:

  • 1 — Account Cache, Account Create
  • 2 — Customer
  • 3 — Customer Reverse Lookup
  • 4 — Invoice
  • 5 — Invoice Line
  • 6 — Address

Several of these rows share a run sequence value: each template group carries its own numbering, so give the imported processes an order across the whole set rather than taking the template values as one.

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 create feed reads account sync output
  • customer reverse lookup feed reads customer sync output
  • customer feed reads account sync output
  • address feed reads account sync output, customer sync output
  • invoice feed reads account sync output, customer sync output
  • invoice line feed reads invoice sync output

5. Field mapping

Each template carries its intended mapping in field mapping.

6. Community templates

The catalogue carries 16 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: 16
  • Default operations: insert on 16, update on 16, delete on 16
  • Marked as circular sync: 0
  • Licence groups they span: 5
  • Destination objects: Account, Commercient Workday Customer Address Managed Custom Object, Commercient Workday Customer Master Managed Custom Object, Commercient Workday Sales Invoice Managed Custom Object, Commercient Workday Sales Invoice Lines Managed Custom Object, Content document
  • Object display names: Account Cache, Account Create, Address, Customer, Customer Reverse Lookup, Invoice, Invoice Line and a further template
  • Template groups: Account, Invoice, Customer Multi Ship Addresses

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/workday.

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 Workday → 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.

How to get started

  • Already a customer: the operational skill tells you how to connect, choose what to sync and run it. Fetch it with dlake admin get_skill dlake-crmpro-salesforce/erps/workday, or ask support@commercient.com.
  • New to Commercient: contact sales@commercient.com. Becoming a customer includes registration and whitelisting, after which the operational skills and tools are available to you.
