Step 3: Configuring the Real-Time Synchronization Profile for Contacts

Configure the real-time synchronization for contacts as follows:

  1. Open the HubSpot Sync (HS205020) form.

    1. In the Entity column, select Contact.
    2. In the Import Scenario column, select Import Contacts From Hubspot.
    3. In the Export Scenario column, select Export Contacts to HubSpot Realtime.
    4. In the Number of Attempts column, select the appropriate maximum number of attempts the system will make to restart synchronization after it has failed.
    5. In the Master Source column, select the source system.
  3. On the form toolbar, click Save.

Step 4: Verifying the Synchronization

Verify the systems are correctly integrated with each other as follows:

  1. Open the Contacts (CR302000) form, and create a contact.

    For details, see Contacts: To Create a Contact Manually.

  2. On the table toolbar of the HubSpot tab, click Sync with HubSpot.
  3. Go to the HubSpot instance, and verify that the contact exists in the system.
  4. In HubSpot, modify any value for the contact.
  5. In MYOB Acumatica, return to the Contacts form. On the table toolbar of the HubSpot tab, click Sync with HubSpot.
  6. Verify that the value modified in HubSpot has been also modified in MYOB Acumatica.

  2. In the Sync to Start box of the Selection area, select Full Data Resync.
  3. In the table, select the Included check box in the row of the Contacts entity.
  4. On the form toolbar, click Process.
    Attention:
    The process may be time-consuming if a large number of records is involved.
