WeDid: Salesforce and Rent.com.au Portal
August 25, 2014 / / Comments Off on WeDid: Salesforce and Rent.com.au Portal
Challenges
All real estate listings reside in Salesforce. However, these listings need to be consistently updated to the website portal to truly reflect the availability and pricing information (to name a few). The major challenges are:
- too many listings to keep track of the status and update to the portal
- listings get updated too frequently causing timing issue
Solution:
| Purpose | Synchronise listing information from Salesforce to designated Rent.com.au portal path for retrieval |
| Applications | Salesforce FTP – Rent.com.au Portal |
| Tool | Dell Boomi Atomsphere |
| Information | Salesforce Listing > Rent.com.au FTP Server |
| Data Formats | XML |
| Volumes | ~100 |
| Process | Any listings that are created/updated will be synced to Rent.com.au FTP server as zipped file containing listings in XML format. |
| Schedule | Every 10 mins |
| Complexity | Medium |
