Salesforce Field-Mapping 

This document describes the relationship between the various Chargebee and Salesforce fields. Field mapping is one of the most important steps as it creates a bidirectional linkage between the two systems and thereby gives greater control on the implications of the native salesforce settings.

Warning

Migration
If you are migrating your Chargebee site from Product Catalog 1.0 to 2.0, the Salesforce integration package cannot be readily migrated. Contact [email protected]  to perform the migration.

Object-Level Mapping 

Chargebee objects are mapped to standard as well as custom objects in Salesforce . The latter are created by Chargebee. The table below shows the relationship between objects in either systems in terms of data flow.

Field-Level Mapping for Standard Objects 

Here we look at how fields in standard Salesforce objects are mapped to data in Chargebee. The notation used to represent Chargebee data is as seen in the Chargebee backend API .

Account 

Accounts in Salesforce are mapped to customers in Chargebee. Given below is the default field-mapping.

Salesforce Field

(* indicates custom field)

Chargebee Field / Data

Account Name

Customer.company

Phone

Customer.phone

Auto Collection*

Customer.auto_collection

Chargebee First Name*

Customer.first_name

Chargebee Id*

Customer.id

Chargebee Last Name*

Customer.last_name

Chargebee Site*

Lookup to CB Site object which in turn stores the domain name of the Chargebee site this account belongs to

Is Synced*

Indicates whether the record has been mapped to Chargebee.

Locale*

Customer.locale

Net Term Days*

Customer.net_term_days

Payment Method Status*

Contact 

The Contact object is mapped to fields in the Customer object in Chargebee. The default mapping is given below.

Salesforce Field

(* indicates custom field)

 Chargebee Field / Data

Email

 Customer.email
Name (composite field) Customer.first_name, Customer.last_name
Phone Customer.phone
Preferred currency* (Deprecated)

Payment Method Type* (Deprecated)
Net Term Days* (Deprecated)
Chargebee_Modified_Time* (Deprecated)
Auto collection* (Deprecated)
Sync with Chargebee*

Checkbox that marks the contact – while it is attached to an account – as the one to consider for syncing with Chargebee.

Price Book 

A single Price Book record is created for all the Chargebee sites that are connected to the Salesforce org.

Note: Regardless of the number of connected sites and number of currency/frequency combinations configured in your Chargebee site for a particular plan, there can be only one Price Book created for all the connected Chargebee sites where only one billing frequency and currency combination for a particular plan is recorded. For example, an ‘Advanced' plan supports three currencies - USD, EUR, and AUD and 2 billing frequencies - annual and monthly). Out of the two billing frequencies, only one can be stored in a single standard or custom pricebook. The integration however relies primarily on the Item Price (custom object) for a specific price point associated with a product.

The fields used by the integration are as follows:

Salesforce Field

(* indicates custom field)

 Chargebee Field / Data
CB Site* Lookup to CB Site object which in turn stores the domain name of the Chargebee site this price book belongs to.
Price Book Name

CB Price Book prefixed with the Chargebee site domain name.

Price Book Entry 

A price book entry record is created for each Chargebee plan and addon.

Salesforce Field
