Proposed workflow

Customer sync test

Planning example. Stacksync support for the required connection and record operations needs a technical review.

Starting eventA change involving Extensiv (3PL Central) Customers or Marketo Companies needs a defined result in the other system.

  1. Start with Extensiv (3PL Central) Customers and Marketo Companies. Use the record-matching and field-ownership rules from your mapping worksheet.

  2. Resolve person or company type, legal entity, business role, and any billing account before transactions.

  3. Test a normal update and one failed or repeated update in the supported direction. Keep both record IDs with the test results.

What to verifyTest an individual buyer, a company buyer, and one company with multiple billing relationships. Do not merge these into a single generic contact.

Customer identity

Customers / Companies

Before linking Extensiv (3PL Central) Customers to Marketo Companies, check whether the customer is an individual or a company. Match the correct record type in each system.

Planning example. Stacksync support for the required connection and record operations needs a technical review.

Extensiv (3PL Central)
Object support to establish
Marketo
Object support to establish
Record identity
Determine whether each customer represents an individual, a company, or a business-unit relationship before matching it to a contact or organization. Retain the source customer ID and destination ID; names and email alone are insufficient.
Field ownership
Separate the customer relationship from contact details, billing authority, and consent. Choose an owner for each field after identifying whether the customer is a person or company.

Fields to include

  • Source customer ID
  • Person/company classification
  • Legal entity or business unit
  • Destination identity reference
Record dependencies
Resolve person or company type, legal entity, business role, and any billing account before transactions.
Validation
Test an individual buyer, a company buyer, and one company with multiple billing relationships. Do not merge these into a single generic contact.
Recovery
Hold ambiguous customer matches for review and resolve customer type before retrying dependent records.

Business process

Orders / Opportunities and Opportunity Roles

Approved sales handoff: Marketo Opportunities and Opportunity Roles provides context for Extensiv (3PL Central) Orders. These are related records, not equivalent entities.

Planning example. Stacksync support for the required connection and record operations needs a technical review.

Extensiv (3PL Central)
Object support to establish
Marketo
Object support to establish
Record identity
Link the originating deal ID to a newly assigned order ID; do not reuse the deal ID as an order number.
Field ownership
Define the approval event and the customer/product data required to create an order. A sales stage alone must not authorize every order.

Fields to include

  • Source record reference
  • Destination record reference
  • Approved handoff state
  • Duplicate-detection key
Record dependencies
Map the customer and sales pipeline before the opportunity; map stage values deliberately.
Validation
Repeat the approved handoff and verify that it locates the existing order; test a reopened deal without silently cancelling fulfillment.
Recovery
Suspend downstream creation for a rejected deal and review whether an order already exists before retrying.

Compare integration approaches

Choose a method around one example record and the update your business needs. Use Customers / Companies to review record matching and confirm Stacksync support for the required operations. Compare ongoing sync, a custom workflow, and a scheduled export against that requirement.

Stacksync managed sync

Best fit
Review compatibility with a Stacksync engineer using an example of the records and updates you need.
Operating responsibility
Fits ongoing record synchronization when the required operations are supported. Add workflow steps for approvals or business actions that go beyond copying fields.
Before you choose
Check record matching: Determine whether each customer represents an individual, a company, or a business-unit relationship before matching it to a contact or organization. Retain the source customer ID and destination ID; names and email alone are insufficient. Verify field coverage, deletion handling, and how changes are detected.

Native vendor integration

Best fit
A vendor-built integration may fit if it supports your Extensiv (3PL Central) and Marketo record types.
Operating responsibility
Can reduce setup for a supported workflow. You may need another method for records or business steps it does not cover.
Before you choose
First check whether either vendor offers this integration. If available, verify Customers / Companies, update direction, account tier, and related-record handling.

Custom API or workflow

Best fit
Consider explicit orchestration for the Orders / Opportunities and Opportunity Roles handoff.
Operating responsibility
Provides control over business steps; the team owns credentials, version changes, error queues, and reconciliation.
Before you choose
Verify endpoint permissions, pagination, quotas, duplicate detection, and failure recovery. Separate reading history from actions that send messages, grant access, or post transactions.

File or scheduled snapshot

Best fit
Consider for a one-time Extensiv (3PL Central) / Marketo migration or a reporting need with an explicit freshness window.
Operating responsibility
Can simplify a bounded transfer; later changes and deletion history require another extraction or a separately designed incremental process.
Before you choose
Record the extraction cutoff, source IDs, encoding, date/number formats, and reconciliation totals.

Workflow scenarios and expected results

Customer sync test

Planning example. Stacksync support for the required connection and record operations needs a technical review.

Starting event: A change to the selected Customers or Companies record needs a defined result in the other system.

  1. Start with Extensiv (3PL Central) Customers and Marketo Companies. Use the record-matching and field-ownership rules from your mapping worksheet.
  2. Resolve person or company type, legal entity, business role, and any billing account before transactions.
  3. Test a normal update and one failed or repeated update in the supported direction. Keep both record IDs with the test results.

Expected result: Test an individual buyer, a company buyer, and one company with multiple billing relationships. Do not merge these into a single generic contact.

If it fails: Hold ambiguous customer matches for review and resolve customer type before retrying dependent records.

Deal or opportunity process handoff

Planning example. Stacksync support for the required connection and record operations needs a technical review.

Starting event: A change to the selected Orders or Opportunities and Opportunity Roles record needs a defined result in the other system.

  1. Start with Extensiv (3PL Central) Orders and Marketo Opportunities and Opportunity Roles. Use the record-matching and field-ownership rules from your mapping worksheet.
  2. Map the customer and sales pipeline before the opportunity; map stage values deliberately.
  3. Test a normal update and one failed or repeated update in the supported direction. Keep both record IDs with the test results.

Expected result: Repeat the approved handoff and verify that it locates the existing order; test a reopened deal without silently cancelling fulfillment.

If it fails: Suspend downstream creation for a rejected deal and review whether an order already exists before retrying.

Reconcile Extensiv (3PL Central) business records with Marketo

This is an evaluation scenario; connector and operation support require confirmation.

Starting event: A finance-owned record in Extensiv (3PL Central) needs operational visibility through Leads or Companies.

  1. Select Customers or Items with the correct legal entity, period, and currency.
  2. Define a reporting relationship in Marketo; do not equate customer records, ledger accounts, and posted transactions.
  3. Decide whether the process only reports a financial state or requests an approved accounting action, and maintain a separate transaction ID for each action.

Expected result: Totals reconcile within the same entity/currency/window; a repeated handoff creates no duplicate financial transaction.

If it fails: Verify posting and settlement state before retrying. Use the approved adjustment path for already-posted transactions.

Initial load and acceptance testing

Keep both record IDs with the expected and actual result. Reconcile the same filters and time window in each system.

Customers / Companies

Test case

Test an individual buyer, a company buyer, and one company with multiple billing relationships. Do not merge these into a single generic contact.

Expected result

The expected customer relationship is preserved with no duplicate action or unintended write.

Orders / Opportunities and Opportunity Roles

Test case

Repeat the approved handoff and verify that it locates the existing order; test a reopened deal without silently cancelling fulfillment.

Expected result

The expected deal or opportunity relationship is preserved with no duplicate action or unintended write.

Direction and permissions

Test case

Bring an example source record and the intended destination operation to the compatibility review. Confirm the supported route before granting write access.

Expected result

Only an approved, supported direction and permitted fields are written.

Freshness and reconciliation

Test case

Measure source and destination times for the selected records under normal load and a burst. Reconcile IDs and values using the same filters and cutoff.

Expected result

The process meets its agreed freshness target and reconciliation has no unexplained differences.

Failed updates, retries and recovery

Start with the failed record and the destination error, then inspect the source value, field requirements, and access.

Rejected or repeated customer change

Investigate

Inspect Extensiv (3PL Central) Customers and Marketo Companies, their IDs, and the destination error.

Next action

Hold ambiguous customer matches for review and resolve customer type before retrying dependent records.

Rejected or repeated deal or opportunity change

Investigate

Inspect Extensiv (3PL Central) Orders and Marketo Opportunities and Opportunity Roles, their IDs, and the destination error.

Next action

Suspend downstream creation for a rejected deal and review whether an order already exists before retrying.

A record type or update is unavailable

Investigate

Check the Extensiv (3PL Central) and Marketo connector guides, account permissions, and any operations marked On Request.

Next action

Ask the integration team to confirm a supported way to handle that record. Verify whether it needs connector configuration or a separate workflow step.

Source and destination disagree after a retry

Investigate

Compare current source values, destination validation, identity mappings, and any side effects already completed.

Next action

Stacksync issue retry reads the current source state. Decide the intended state before retrying or reverting; reconcile downstream effects separately.

Read the Stacksync issues dashboard guide for retry and revert behavior.
