Feature Enhancements
LOS Setting Update
Encompass CRM admins can now map all Encompass CRM fields, including custom fields, to Encompass fields. To support this update, the LOS Setting page has been updated with an Encompass Data Mapping panel with a table listing Encompass CRM field names and their corresponding mapped Encompass field IDs for Customer and Prospect records.
Encompass CRM fields that already synced with Encompass fields are automatically populated and displayed in this table. You can add additional fields, especially custom fields, to be included in the mapping.
This feature applies only for instances with Sync Processor (for syncing Encompass records). If you are using custom Encompass CRM fields, ensure that the corresponding Encompass fields are added to the Encompass Reporting Database before creating the mapping.
If you have added a mapping in one of tabs, say Customer tab, and the same field applies to your Prospect records and needs to be mapped, you need to update the mapping in both tabs.
- Log into Encompass CRM as an administrator.
- Click Site Admin and then click LOS Setting.
- Go to the Encompass Data Mapping panel.
Customer tab displays by default.
- Update and click Save.
- In the confirmation window, click OK.
- Click the Prospect tab to view and update mapped fields.
If you have added a mapping for a field in the Customer tab, and the same field applies for your Prospect records and needs to be mapped, you need to update the mapping in the Prospect tab.
- Click Save, and then click OK.
