DON’T LET DUPLICATE DATA BOG DOWN YOUR SALESFORCE CRM
If you have data quality issues in Salesforce, your entire business is likely to suffer. Even though Salesforce does have a native option for handling duplicate data, it’s a manual process that often proves to be very time consuming and frustrating.
Here at Astreca, we want to empower companies by offering useful Salesforce services and solutions. In this case, our team developed a Bulk Merge app focused on cleaning up data for Salesforce accounts, contacts, leads, and custom objects.
We will work closely with your team during this last step. Merging is an irreversible process, so we will ensure that we take all the necessary steps like data backups, validating of the results with your team, and ensuring the results are in line with your expectations. We will complete the end-to-end process in your sandbox/lower environment, validate the results, and then repeat the process in production.
Our Bulk Merge app will handle all the dirty work that comes with data cleansing, but it’s still essential to have a strategy before you dive in. Your business is unique, so you should have your own rules for what qualifies as “clean data.” If you’re not sure where to start with your duplicate objects and other data quality issues, Astreca can help.
Let’s go over a scenario where the Bulk Merge app would be useful. Imagine you have three records for IBM with similar addresses and slight variations in the company name:
Even though the addresses and company names do not exactly match, the Bulk Merge app can tell that these records are similar enough to be a candidate for merging.
