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 Opportunities or Orders record needs a defined result in the other system.
- Start with Microsoft Dynamics 365 Opportunities and Xactly Orders. Use the record-matching and field-ownership rules from your mapping worksheet.
- Map the customer and sales pipeline before the opportunity; map stage values deliberately.
- 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.
Sales order process handoff
Planning example. Stacksync support for the required connection and record operations needs a technical review.
Starting event: A change to the selected Quotes, Orders & Invoices or Orders record needs a defined result in the other system.
- Start with Microsoft Dynamics 365 Quotes, Orders & Invoices and Xactly Orders. Use the record-matching and field-ownership rules from your mapping worksheet.
- Create or locate the customer and products first; resolve taxes, currency, and fulfillment references.
- 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 a partially invoiced order, tax rounding, and a repeated handoff without generating another invoice.
If it fails: Check for an existing destination order before retrying a timed-out create; reconcile line IDs to avoid duplicate fulfillment.
Product or catalog item sync test
Planning example. Stacksync support for the required connection and record operations needs a technical review.
Starting event: A change to the selected Products or Products & Customers record needs a defined result in the other system.
- Start with Microsoft Dynamics 365 Products and Xactly Products & Customers. Use the record-matching and field-ownership rules from your mapping worksheet.
- Resolve units, variants, categories, and applicable price lists before order lines.
- 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 two variants of one product, a changed SKU, and a price that applies to only one market or currency.
If it fails: Repair the variant or price-list reference before retrying affected order lines; preserve existing transaction prices.
Plan the customer lifecycle across Microsoft Dynamics 365 and Xactly
This is an evaluation scenario; connector and operation support require confirmation.
Starting event: A customer-facing change in Microsoft Dynamics 365 needs operational context in Xactly.
- Select the relevant Accounts or Contacts records and identify whether the downstream relationship is a person, a company, a deal, or a reporting row.
- Define which lifecycle transitions are informative and which should request a downstream action. Keep conversion and merge history connected to stable IDs.
- Choose a representative reopened deal, changed contact identity, or reassigned account to test the handoff before expanding.
Expected result: The relationship survives a lifecycle change without creating a duplicate customer or triggering an unintended business action.
If it fails: Inspect merge/conversion history and existing destination records before replaying a lifecycle transition.
