I'm wondering if anyone else is experiencing this issue. We have set up a few AEs with the email add-in, we have tracking activated on sales email sent and opened so we can give credit in activity reports in SFDC. When the AE sends the email vai gmail and has it flagged to sync marketo is writing into the activity history but then creating an email template with the content of the email. It's creating data and back up issues in our SFDC instance and I'm not getting a solution from support other than to contact my SFDC Admin. Anyone else having this issue and/or found a solution? ...

Has anyone been able to use lead ownership by queue in their smartlists? We have a few active lead queues that we want to have alerts triggered by different queue but I can't figure out how to pull based on queue. Anyone? ... View more

We are moving to an outsource outbound sales process were we have a number of accounts flagged as "no fly zone". I'm wondering if there is an easy way with Marketo to take the account list (about 850 accounts) and use that as a smart list to pull any leads in SFDC and re-assign them to a queue. Has anyone set up this type of system? ... View more

I have run a data append with a vendor and am going to upload the appended data to record in Marketo. I'm curious how long it would take for the data in Marketo to then write over to SFDC? Is it better to update the records in SFDC and then wait for the data to write back into Marketo? ... View more

We had some data pushed into SFDC that should not have been. We want the leads to remain in Marketo and be synced into SFDC once they have performed a few other actions. If I delete the leads out of SFDC now and leave them in Marketo are there any potential issues we may run into in the future with sync? ... View more

I'm in the process of remodeling our lead scoring. We have defined all the scoring adjustments and I'm in the process of implementing the new campaigns. We've decided to remove all previous scoring and run batch scores to re-calibrate all leads in the system. For any behavioral activity the campaigns will work based on the triggers. However, on the demographic side, we have a third party service that cleans our data, so I'm concerned that we will double score leads based on demographic info. Here is the scenario: - Lead is created - demographic information is scored (eg. industry value = telecom) - 24hrs later our vendor cleans the data - demographic (vendor changes industry value from telecom to technology) The only way I can think this through so we aren't double counting is to zero out the scores and re-calibrate the demographic score on a regular basis. This could happen through sales activity updating records as well, if a rep changed someone's title multiple times in one week would it just keep adding based on the data value changes? ...

We use reachforce for data enrichment, we have all the reachforce values hidding on the form that write to custom Reachforce fields, these then populate the native fields in Marketo if those fields are empty. Whe have the similar set up for our lead source so we maintain the original values. Our forms have a custom field MKTO-lead field. We have a data management campaign on form sumbit that populates the native lead source field if it's empty with the value in the MKTO-lead-field. Things seemed to be working but now I'm noticing on every form complete the lead source value is being updated even though there isn't any native lead source value on the field. I've contacted support and they are suggesting that I block updates on form complete, is this a good solution? If I move to blocking updated do I think move the native field back on the form and kill my data management campaigns to update the field if it's blank? ... View more

I'm trying to set up our Lead Score field to be a formula of Behavioural + Demographic soring but having some issues trying to change the field type in SFDC. Is this a case where I have to delete all the data out of that particular field so that I can edit the field type? Also curious if anyone else has attempted to do this? ... View more

I'm implementing some smart forms that pull in a value for employee count on an organization. I'm able to take the custom smart form field and write it into our standard SFDC if the field is already blank. What I'm hoping to do is write the value in if it is either blank or less than the value in the custom smart form field. If I use a less than = token for the custom field, I get an error that the token is invalid. Any ideas on how I can set up the smart list? ... View more

We recently changed a field type on a new custom field in SFDC. The field had synced into Marketo with the original field type, we made the change and had hoped that they sync would update the field type. We've waited about 48hrs now and the field in Marketo still hasn't synced with the correct field type. Will the field type eventually update, or do I need to make sure that the field is empty of all data on records before it will update? We've been doing some testing around the field so there is some data populated in marketo. ... View more

I'm doing some restructuring of our data and field values. I'm currently cleaning up our lead source values but am having some issues updating values on converted leads.

We are having an issue with one of our field mappings. Currently our Lead Status maps to 2 fields in SFDC - Lead Status and a custom field on the contact record "Current_Status_c". The second mapping should never have been connected. I've asked support if they are able to break the mapping on the second field but they are telling me I have to remove any reference to the field in our Marketo campaigns. We have lead status changes in most of our flows and it really isn't feasible to remove that from every campaign. Has anyone else been able to resolve field mapping issues without having to remove all the references in Marketo? I'm guessing the only way to get around this is do the work in SFDC - create a new custom field for the contact record data, move the data over then delete the custom field the lead status is mapping to.

The form we have is currently an embedded form. Has anyone figured out a way to disable the cook tracking on an embeded form, I understand how to do it with a marketo landing page. ... View more

We are in the process of moving some of our forms over to Forms 2.0 but are having issues around out styling. We obviously don't want to release the new forms unless they match our existing forms but are having some challenges getting our existing styles to be recognized with the new forms. Does anyone have any quick tips on how we can get the new forms (forms 2.0) to adopt our existing styling? ... View more
