Salesforce (Pre App Installation Process)

Last Updated: Thu Sep 24 2020

Although the following are called out as "pre" app installation steps these can be done after the app is installed. The important thing to make the Salesforce admin aware of is steps one and two below as these are natively disabled in Salesforce. Step two will require the most work from the Salesforce admin, especially if they have a lot of countries and states to configure. Although this is mostly a requirement for taxing and data integrity, LogiSense requires our internal IDs for Countries and States in order to add addresses correctly.

There is no mapping screen within Salesforce between LogiSense and Salesforce country/states, instead the app relies on standard ISO codes. You are covered when it comes to countries, however keep this in mind when configuring states in both systems as the LogiSense Billing States Abbreviation value should match the Salesforce State Code value.

    Must match values in LogiSense Owner Currencies

    1. In Salesforce access Setup

    2. Search for 'Company' on the left and expand Company Settings
