Leads from automation campaign weren’t updated in Zoho CRM?

How can I change the labels of the custom fields in SyncApps to Constant Contact?

Wanting to change the labels of the custom fields when performing the field mapping when setting up a Sync Profile?  Let’s take a look at this example.  Custom Field 01, Custom Field 02, Custom Field 03 —— and labelling them new as Channel for Custom Field 01, Record Type for Custom Field 02, and so on.  Is this even possible?

Absolutely, yes!

Do these following steps in renaming your Custom Fields:

*Rename the custom field as you see fit.  You’ll want to keep it under 255 characters.

*Remove the custom field by clicking the X icon.

*Add a new custom field by clicking “Add custom field”.

You then just have to be sure you’ve jotted these labels down to be used in your Sync Profile to map the 1-5 custom fields available to your CRM field(s).

My list in MailChimp is not being updated to remove deleted leads from my Zoho CRM

Do you have a Leads & Contacts list in MailChimp which is synced from Zoho CRM using our Cazoomi SyncApps integration?

Was it like this, first you cleaned up your entire leads list in Zoho CRM reducing your over 11,000 leads to around 8,000?  And after this, you did manual syncing using SyncApps?

What happened next?  You checked it again and discovered that your leads list in MailChimp hasn’t changed in size and is still over 11,000.

Our simple solution to that would be clearing your account’s cache.  BUT, we’ve done far more than that as we already have set the “Sync deleted Contacts or Leads in Zoho CRM to MailChimp”.  You then just need to enable it before doing a sync so that SyncApps will get to know the deleted contacts to sync to MailChimp in order to remove them.

We have also set the “Sync deleted Contacts or Leads in Zoho CRM to MailChimp” for you which needed to be enabled before doing a sync so SyncApps will know the deleted contacts to sync to MailChimp in order to remove them.

Is there a way to generate a report to have the opens, clicks, and bounces totaled for the campaign in Zoho?

Yes.

You’ve read it right!  There is way to generate a report for the campaigns in Zoho Enterprise Edition.  It’s with the use of our Zoho CRM Custom Modules for Campaign Response Sync.

What is its role?  It syncs Email Service Provider (ESP) Campaign Responses to Custom Modules in Zoho CRM Enterprise.  The ESPs that are supported by this are Act-On, Constant Contact, MailChimp, VerticalResponse and a lot more.  But note that this feature is only available on the Zoho CRM Enterprise Edition.

Syncing of Deletions between Constant Contact and Zoho CRM possible?

Do you use Cazoomi SyncApps integration to do a daily sync between Constant Contact and Zoho CRM?  If so, would you ask that if a contact record is deleted from Constant Contact, will the next syncing delete it from the Zoho database?

 What we can say around that issue is that it is not feasible from Constant Contact Lists.  But yet, this is possible if the contact is deleted from CRM, as CRM to Constant Contact can delete the record via the API.

 So, this means that when you are to delete a contact from Constant Contact, the record will just be added back into Constant Contact on the next sync.  Remember, syncing of deletions can be done if you are to delete from your Zoho Campaign(s) to Constant Contact List(s) OR syncing all contacts from Zoho.

 Our other option for you to prevent implementing a manual process is just to unsubscribe the Constant Contact subscribers marking them as Opted-out in CRM which would solve this requirement.
