  • "Unable to serialize result" errors do not occur in Riva 2.4.41.

Even More Finely Tuned Sync for Some Platforms

Salesforce

  • Master categories in email system based on Salesforce user profiles
    Riva 2.4.41.33120 or higher can assign master categories to email users based on the user profiles in Salesforce. The master categories are updated every 24 hours. To deploy this functionality, contact the Client Engagement Team by logging a support request. Fees apply.
  • New event syncing option
    Riva 2.4.41.33125 or higher can be configured to sync an Exchange meeting to a Salesforce event only if every attendee matches a contact in Salesforce.
    If any attendee has no matching contact in Salesforce,
    Riva does not sync the event to Salesforce, and
    the event is returned to the user's mailbox with a "Contact match not found" category along with the email address of the unmatched attendee.
    To deploy this functionality, contact the Client Engagement Team by logging a support request. Fees apply.
    Note: To be clear, this is how the new functionality differs from similar functionalities. Apart from the new functionality, Riva can be configured
    not to sync meetings to Salesforce;
    to sync all meetings to Salesforce and ignore attendees that do not match Salesforce contacts; or
    to sync all meetings to Salesforce and create contacts in Salesforce for attendees that have no matching contacts. At this point, a created contact is related to the matching account, but if there is no matching account, the contact is related to the collector account.

Microsoft Dynamics CRM

  • Appointments organized by non-CRM users who become CRM users:
    You can use an advanced custom option so that when Riva finds an appointment whose organizer is not a CRM user, Riva sets the syncing user (for example, Rivasync@domain.com) as the organizer; and when the organizer becomes a CRM user, Riva sets this new CRM user as the organizer of that appointment. For more information, see Handle appointments organized by non-users who become users.

NetSuite

  • Appointments organized by non-CRM users who become CRM users:
    You can use an advanced custom option so that when Riva finds an appointment whose organizer is not a CRM user, Riva sets the syncing user (for example, Rivasync@domain.com) as the organizer; and when the organizer becomes a CRM user, Riva sets this new CRM user as the organizer of that appointment. For more information, see Handle appointments organized by non-users who become users.

Oracle CRM On Demand

  • Appointments organized by non-CRM users who become CRM users:
    You can use an advanced custom option so that when Riva finds an appointment whose organizer is not a CRM user, Riva sets the syncing user (for example, Rivasync@domain.com) as the organizer; and when the organizer becomes a CRM user, Riva sets this new CRM user as the organizer of that appointment. For more information, see Handle appointments organized by non-users who become users.
