Default Value for "Remove from SFDC"

Default Value for "Remove from SFDC"

Hi Community,

It would be great if the default value for "Remove from SFDC" was NOT set to "True".

When deleting a lead from Marketo, and it asks if you want to "Remove from SFDC", the default value is "True" and there is no going back if you accidently click "Run" without pausing to look.

Wouldn't it be better if that option defaulted to "Null" instead of "True"?  Then you would have to actively select "True" or "False".  Now that there are other people using Marketo in my organization, I just don't want anyone accidentally, deleting leads out of SFDC when they really shouldn't.  By defaulting that selection to "True" it's a disaster waiting to happen.

I had an example where someone imported a list of contacts into Marketo and realized that they were the wrong contacts for that list and didn't want them in Marketo, however they lived in SFDC and they wanted them to stay there.

In their haste, the opted to delete the leads from Marketo, and without thinking, clicked "Run" while "Remove from SFDC" was set to "True".

In a situation like this, it would be great that option where set to "---" and the user had to pause and actively think about removing from SFDC, rather than defaulting to it.

Just a thought.  Thanks.
