Purpose[edit]
The purpose of this Wiki is to document the process of:
- Configuring ICI in Salesforce.
- Performing Salesforce related configuration in ICI for mapping data entities and saved searches.
It also describes the process of using the Icertis Experience for Salesforce with the standard scenarios.
The document is primarily intended for:
- Administrator users who configure Icertis Experience for Salesforce on Salesforce.com.
- ICI Administrator Users who work on ICI Side Configuration.
- Other users who work with Agreements.
Prerequisites
- The user must have an account on Salesforce and ICI.
- Icertis CLM must be installed on Salesforce.com from Salesforce AppExchange. It is compatible with Group, Professional, Enterprise, Unlimited, Force.com Developer and Performance Editions.
- The user must have admin privileges for ICI and Salesforce in case the user is configuring ICI on Salesforce.
Overview of Icertis Experience for Salesforce [edit]
Icertis Experience for Salesforce is a native Salesforce application that allows you to access the full suite of ICI functionality from Salesforce, including the following capabilities:
- Manage end-to-end contract lifecycle from the familiar Salesforce platform.
- Create Contract Requests with pre-populated data from Salesforce objects.
- Track contract progress and status updates within Salesforce.
- View contract notifications as part of chatter feed messages.
- Automatically transfer and synchronize data between Salesforce objects and ICI.
- Map Salesforce objects (standard and custom) with ICI entities.
ICI and Salesforce integration is required to port data from ICI to Salesforce. This integration avoids the need for re-entering the data manually in Salesforce which you have already created in ICI.
To use ICI from within Salesforce:
- The ICI sections must be embedded in the Salesforce pages.
- After logging on to Salesforce, select ICI in the top right corner of your Salesforce page to use ICI through Salesforce.
Icertis Experience for Salesforce has the following key concepts:
- Account is a label for business. It is a company or a business entity, you might already be working with, or one that you hope to work with. In simple words, an Account is an actual business or company.
- Opportunity is a pending deal with a monetary value associated with it. It helps to track the pending deals and sales.
- Quote is the data showing the proposed prices for the products or services. Quotes can be created by using the data that is saved in the Opportunities and shared with the prospective customers. Every opportunity can have multiple associated quotes linked to it.
After integrating ICI with Salesforce, you can do the following contract management tasks in Salesforce:
- Create and edit a Contract Request from an existing Account.
- Create and edit a Contract Request from an existing Opportunity.
- Create and edit a Contract Request from an existing Quote.
- Create and edit a Contract from an Account when a prospective sales lead is qualified and a corresponding account is created.
- Create and edit a Contract from an existing Opportunity.
- Create and edit a Contract from an existing Quote.

4. Pages are added in the Icertis Contracts Section.
5. Click Save.
Note: For better visualization, please add inline VF pages with the height of 250px.
Configuring Data Sync[edit]
Once the Contract and Contract Request is created from Salesforce, the data is synced to ICI entities. If the Salesforce entity is edited or changed, user need to update mapped fields in ICI. Ideally, this process is automated. The system should automatically sync the data in the background, without user intervention.
To enable this feature in Salesforce, ICI Service User Authentication Token should be configured and create a process in Process Builder for specific entities. Selected entities will have Data sync functionality. To know more about the Process Builder, visit: https://help.salesforce.com/articleView?id=process_overview.htm&type=0
Data Sync (Salesforce to ICI) Configuration[edit]

Configuration for allowing user to be redirected to ICI Details page in Salesforce[edit]
When creating Contracts, Contract Requests and Amendments from Salesforce, Administrators can now configure whether the users should be redirected to the ICI Contract details page or the Salesforce Record page from where creation process was initiated. This can be configured by selecting the Allow Redirect checkbox on the ICI Endpoint Configuration page. By default, the checkbox is unchecked. When checked, the user is redirected to the Salesforce Record page, else to the ICI Contract detail page.
Integrating ICI Tasks with Salesforce [edit]
With this release, Salesforce users can now manage ICI tasks from within Salesforce. ICI Administrators can configure ICI task integration with Salesforce so that the tasks created in ICI are pushed to Salesforce. This allows users to view task details with the attributes such as Task Name, Status, Priority, Due Date within Salesforce itself.
Based on configuration, users can receive task notifications in Salesforce for any action taken on agreements, templates, contract requests, clauses or masterdata in ICI.
To integrate ICI Tasks with Salesforce Tasks:
Creating Client App Cross Reference[edit]
- Click Configuration > Masterdata > Create Masterdata on the Home page. The Masterdata Details tab is displayed.
- Select the Category from the drop-down. For example, Default.
- Select the Masterdata Contract Type. In order to map ICI entities with entities in Salesforce, you must select Client App Cross Reference from the drop-down.
- Click Next. The Attributes tab opens.
- Enter the relevant attribute values. Enter ICI Entity Name and Client Entity Name as Task.
Note: The Sync Task Notification attribute will only be visible if Client Name is selected as Salesforce. Similarly, the Task Types Of Contract and Task Notification Actions attributes will only be displayed if Sync Task Notification flag is set to Yes.
When the user takes any of the workflow action selected in the Task Notification Actions field in ICI, the corresponding task gets generated in Salesforce. For example, if Request Review action is taken on an agreement and a user (Reviewer) is selected, then the same task will appear in the Tasks section of Salesforce.
Viewing ICI Tasks in Salesforce[edit]
Working with Saved Searches[edit]
You can use advanced search option to search for existing entities. You can save these searches and pin them as favorites for easy access. Saved searches can be opened for easy access to the search results.
Performing a Search to Save[edit]
1. Click the Search icon tile on the top right corner on My Dashboard page. The Advanced Search page opens.
2. In the Please select Entities to Search field, enter or select appropriate entities from the list and type the keywords to search in the Enter Search here field.
3. Select from these options:
4. After selecting either of the above options, click the Search icon. The list of search results opens.
5. To narrow down your search further, navigate to Search For field. Click Select Field and select an option from the list provided. The number in the bracket indicates the number of items available containing that search term. You can select multiple options. For example, selecting the field Status displays the number of Agreements that have the Status as Draft, Approved, Terminated, Superseded and so on. If you select the status as Draft (select the checkbox next to Draft), all Agreements in the Draft state are displayed.
6. A list of these Agreements opens as search result in a tabular format. Enhance your search using wild cards as follows:
Saving a Search[edit]
If you have the search criteria defined and need same search criteria repeatedly, it is advisable to save the search. For Configuring Saved Search in Salesforce, we need some of the Data Mapping which includes Salesforce Account and Opportunity Id (which is 18 digit of alphanumeric reference value). That means, if you are defining a mapping of Salesforce Opportunity with Contract Request, then in that contract request create a field/attribute which will hold the salesforce Opportunity id, in the same manner you can create for the account id reference. So create these required mapping to start with Saved Search.
For example, after you map data, attribute like Opportunity ID can be mapped in ICI and Salesforce.
To save the search:
1. Click the Save icon. This opens the Save Search window. Set the parameters for this Saved Search.
2. Type a name for the search. Use a name that you can easily associate with this search.
Click Yes to make it a global search, which means all users of the selected Security Groups and Organization units can view it. Select No to save this search locally, which will not be visible to any other person than the person who is creating it.
Note: Only the Administrator can save global searches.
3. Specify the Advanced parameters as follows:
Note: A search defined as a Smart Link cannot be set as a Dashboard tile. For a global search, the administrator needs to create a security group and give access to specific users. Only those users can see that Saved Search in the list and add it as a Dashboard tile.
You can also save your searches and use the saved search Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) in the ICI Endpoint Settings in Salesforce. You can create saved searches for the following fields that are displayed in Salesforce ICI Config Settings > ICI Endpoint Settings:
Following is an example of creating a saved search for Contract Opportunity Search URI:
1. On the upper right corner of your ICI page, click Search icon. The Search page opens.
2. In the Please select Entities to search list, select the entity that you want to search such as Agreement or Contract Request and then type the entity that you want to display in the search text box. The relevant search results open.
3. On the upper right corner of the search results, click Save icon to save your search. The Save Search window is displayed.
4. In the Save search as box, type the name of the saved search as a URI such as SF_OPP_CR for a contract request, or SF_OPP_Contract for a contract request.
Similarly, you can create saved searches for the remaining entities. The entity and field to filter will be different.
Note: For core ICI related configuration, refer to ICI admin guide.
Within Salesforce, ICI will be accessible as per the ICI based User context so if there is anything which you need to control at the user end, please control the user settings from core ICI product.
Within Salesforce, ICI will be accessible as per the ICI based User context so if there is anything which you need to control at the user end, please control the user settings from core ICI product.
Updating Saved Search Configuration [edit]
With this feature, Salesforce administrator can map any of the entity level attribute for executing the Saved Search, provided it is created in ICI as per the attribute configured in Salesforce.
If you do not configure the attribute in Salesforce, the Saved Search still executes based on the Salesforce record ID.
Configuring Global Search [edit]
Previously, there were 2 separate sub-tabs, 1 each for Contracts and Contract Requests, under the ICI tab within Salesforce. The previous Search page when rendered from within an iFrame inside Salesforce, gives the user a perception that they are working outside of Salesforce application.
With the SFDC experience enhancement, the user will have the ability to:
To configure the Global Search tab:
Enabling Single Sign-On[edit]
You need to setup single sign-on for Salesforce to work seamlessly with ICI. For more information about setting up single sign-on, refer https://help.salesforce.com/articleView?id=sso_saml.htm&type=0
Multiple Salesforce Instances[edit]
With this feature, you can connect multiple Salesforce instances of your organization or organization groups to a single ICI instance. For using this feature, the user needs to create a new `Masterdata record which can be used to define the multiple Salesforce instances. The user needs to add the login details of the configured Salesforce instance machine configuration. Contact Dev Ops team for assistance.
To support Multiple Salesforce instances, you need to add multiple records in Client App Org Reference Contract Type. If the Contract Type is not listed in the system, then it needs to be created.
If the Client Org Reference Contract Type is not already created, create it using the following steps:
To create a Masterdata record:
1. On the My Dashboard page, click Configuration and then click Masterdata. The Masterdata page opens
2. Click Create Masterdata. Provide relevant information in the respective fields and click Next. The Attributes page opens. Provide relevant information in the respective fields:
3. Provide relevant information in the respective fields:
Notes: While creating a new Contract Type, name it as Client Org Reference only. The naming convention must be followed exactly as given. ICI will not recognize and sync Contract Type which is created by any other name.
After adding the Org Reference mapping in Client App Entity mapping and Cross-reference mapping, there will be an extra attribute where the user selects the Org for which that particular mapping is synced.
After the Salesforce instance is configured, you can use that Reference Org to define Client App Entity Mapping and Client App Cross Reference mapping.
If Client App Org Reference Contract Type is not installed, you need to create this Contract type, with exactly the same name and attributes. Refer this link for details.
