Custom score fields and total lead score

[Anonymous]

When you build a custom score field, does it automatically feed into lead score? If it does, is there a way to prevent it or am I better off using an integer field?

Use an integer if you're trying to keep it separate.

in SFDC, you will create an integer field.

When it syncs back to marketo, change the Type to Score so it appears in the Change Score drop down.

Custom scores DO NOT automatically feed into Lead Score. You have to run two Change Scores in a flow and do the same operation on BOTH fields to get Lead Score to change the same amt.
