Feature Overview
The Opportunity Owner Field setup enables administrators to select a custom field from the Opportunity object in your CRM instance to use as the opportunity owner field in TruSales. This provides flexibility when organizations use custom ownership fields instead of the standard Owner field, ensuring accurate ownership attribution for opportunities in TruSales.
How It Works
The system displays a searchable table of available reference fields from the Opportunity object that point to User records. Administrators can select one field to designate as the owner field. The standard Owner field is automatically included as the default option. After making a selection, administrators must save and update the configuration, which triggers a background process to update all existing opportunity records with the new owner field values. Progress is shown in real-time with completion notifications.
Use Cases
- For Admins: Configure custom ownership fields when the standard CRM Owner field doesn't reflect actual opportunity ownership, and map complex ownership structures in CRM to TruSales for accurate reporting, user attribution, and consistent data analysis across different business units.
- For Sales Managers: Ensure opportunities are correctly attributed to the right sales representatives for accurate performance tracking and territory management.
