Syncing Frequency
Due to API rate limits on most common CRMs, we sync opportunities every hour at half past the hour:
At the half-hour (10:30 am, 11:30 am, etc.), we sync open/closed opportunities.
Opportunity State
Open Opportunities: Each platform has a different way to indicate that an opportunity is “open.” This could be a boolean flag (true/false) or a status. We query the CRM for opportunities that match the criteria and then iterate over the results. If we have not previously seen an opportunity returned from the CRM, we create a local record for it. If we have previously seen it, then we update any details that changed.
Closed Opportunities (literally, "Not Open" Opportunities): We query the CRM and ask for “opportunities that are not in the open state.” Any opportunity that is returned from the CRM has a “closed” flag set in ScopeStack. When that’s set, it will no longer appear in the “CRM Opportunity” drop-down.
We also support the customer specifying statuses of their choice that indicate “open.” Based on how an account defines “open," this can change the closed status definition. For example, it may mean “the closed flag is set” or “opportunity status is not one of the open statuses.”
Update CRM
With Salesforce and Hubspot, we support syncing back the project revenue to the opportunity in your CRM. To complete this update, press the Update CRM button next to the project name on an approved project.
We can also customize this function to work with Connectwise Manage CRM Opportunities. Contact us today for help with this update.
