Fields |
Description |
Entity Type |
This drop down will list all those Salesforce entities which SigningHub supports for fields mapping. Select an entity (i.e. Opportunity, Contract, Leads, etc.) whose field is required to map with a document form field. |
Entity Field |
This drop down will list all the fields of selected Salesforce entity (above) which SigningHub supports for mapping. Select a field which is required to map with a document form field. |
Form Field Type |
This is the read-only field to display the type of entity field (selected above), i.e. Text, Checkbox, Date, Select List, etc. Ensure that the types of both the entity field and the document form field (with which mapping is required) are the same. |
Form Field Name |
Enter the name of document form field (shown under the Field Properties dialog) that needs to map with the selected entity field (above), i.e. OppCloseDate. See the below heading as how to get a form filed name. |
Auto Sync |
Tick this check box to update the mapped field (value) of Salesforce entity according to the changes done on the document fields content. In this way, when a Salesforce user changes the pre-populated content on the document form field, the same changes will be saved on the mapped field of Salesforce entity as well. |
How to get a form field name?
- Open your PDF document in a PDF editor that supports form fields editing, i.e. Acrobat Acrobat DC.
- Select "Prepare Form" and edit the form field which is to map with a Salesforce entity field, and open the "Field Properties" dialog.
- Now look for the "Name" field inside the "Properties" dialog. You can also enter a customised name for a form field. Copy this name and enter in the "Form Field Name" field of the "Document Fields Mapping" screen above.
- When this document is signed, the Salesforce "Close Date" will be added to the "OppCloseDate" form field in the PDF
Field ​Mapping Rules:
- The names of document form fields (i.e. OppCloseDate, OppName, etc.) should be correctly specified against the Salesforce entity fields that need to be mapped.
- The type of Entity field and the type of document form field with which mapping is required, should be the same, i.e. A 'Text' field should be mapped only with a 'Text' field, a 'Select List' field should be mapped only with a 'Select List' field, and so on.
- When ticked, the "Auto Sync" feature will work at the time of document sharing and document signing both.
