If this check box is selected, you can specify in the table whether the value of the lead or the value of the contact will be used for both entities. Based on these settings, the differing settings of the lead and contact will be updated as follows:

Table 32. Table Toolbar

The table toolbar includes standard buttons and buttons that are specific to this table. For the list of standard buttons, see Table Toolbar. The table-specific buttons are listed below.

Button Description
Sync With HubSpot

Synchronizes the data with HubSpot.

During this synchronization, the system checks whether there are any data changes in either HubSpot or MYOB Acumatica. Then the system either pulls the data from HubSpot or pushes the data to HubSpot from MYOB Acumatica, so that the latest version is used for both entities. If there are data changes in both HubSpot and MYOB Acumatica, then the system checks what is set as the master source for the entity type in the Master Source column on the HubSpot Sync (HS205020) form and applies the changes from the master source.

This button is available if the HubSpot Sync data provider is marked active on the Data Providers (SM206015) form and only for entity types listed on the HubSpot Sync form.

Push to HubSpot

Pushes the data from MYOB Acumatica to HubSpot for the selected record (that is, the record you clicked in the table before clicking this button).

While pushing the data, the system replaces the current version of the item in HubSpot with the selected item from MYOB Acumatica.

Pull from HubSpot

While pulling the data, the system replaces the current version of the item in MYOB Acumatica with the selected item from HubSpot.
