Creating SF tasks in Marketo and changing the account owner setup

[Anonymous]

When creating SF Task notifications in the Flow setup, are we able to not have just one account owner appointed to receive the task?  As I would prefer the SF task notification to go to the specific account owner and not just have 1x account person appointed to receive all? Thanks your help is appreciated!

Hi Marianne

If you select --Assign to Lead Owner-- as below, the task will be assigned to the Lead Owner (if its a Lead), or the Contact Owner (if its a contact). so assuming that your Account Owner and Contact Owners match, this should ensure that the right person is assigned the task.

Hope that helps

Thanks for that Bronwen!  Ok great.  I see that there is only the option to 'Assign to Lead Owner' and not 'Account Owner.'

Thanks that helps!

Yes, this is a common question. If you do a search for it, there may be some options. In general, Marketo does not work with Account Owner.
