Important
If you have setup the Salesforce integration before 27th July 2020, it is likely that you are using an older version of the integration. To migrate to the current version, contact support .
Flexibility is one of the greatest strengths of Salesforce and that's how you are able to effectively model your organization and its processes in Salesforce. Chargebee's integration with Salesforce offers a high level of adaptability to meet your business workflows.
This page will help you understand the configuration options that are available for the integration and how to set them up.
On connecting multiple sites: If you are connecting multiple Chargebee sites to the same Salesforce organization, the considerations discussed in this page are applicable to all the sites.
Changes aren't applied retrospectively: Unless otherwise specified, the changes made to the configuration are applicable only for newly synced records. The new set of configurations are applied in the next sync after the change. Previously synced records are not affected.
Case-sensitivity for comparisons: Whenever field values are compared between Chargebee and Salesforce to find matching records, the comparison is performed in a case-sensitive or case-insensitive manner depending on the property set for the field in Salesforce. Chargebee ID and Salesforce ID are case sensitive, while the rest are not.
Customer records in Chargebee are mapped and synced to accounts in Salesforce. The mapping is one-to-one, which means that any given customer or account record cannot participate in more than one customer-account relationship (including Person accounts.)
Chargebee - Salesforce Integration follows a 1:1 mapping. This means that a customer in Chargebee can be linked to only 1 account in Salesforce. The condition remains true even if multiple Chargebee sites are connected to Salesforce.
The data is synced in a bi-directional manner. That is, the information can flow from:
In the self-serve model, the customers land on your website and sign-up for the subscriptions themselves. In such cases, the customer and their subscription information is created in Chargebee directly. The integration pulls data from Chargebee into Salesforce. You can choose to run this manually or automatically.
If you have a sales-driven model, your sales team starts the cycle in Salesforce. They work through the opportunities or accounts in Salesforce and create Chargebee customers and subscriptions from them. Data is pushed from Salesforce to Chargebee according to the [field mapping](salesforce-mapping
.html).
Configuring v1.38 and above, requires you to complete the following prerequisites:

Click Get Started.
Articles & FAQhttps://acme-test.chargebee.com, enter only the subdomain value as acme-test. https://acme.chargebee.com.
It is recommended that you create a separate API key for Salesforce.
These settings determine how customers and subscriptions in Chargebee map or interact with the custom and standard objects in Salesforce such as accounts and opportunities. In case you do not configure these settings, the default options will be considered. You can edit the settings any time.
Sync rules for Accounts (Self-Serve model)
These settings determine how customers that are directly created in Chargebee sync to Salesforce. The rules mentioned in this section govern how the customer data syncs with Salesforce during different scenarios.
1. Select customers to sync
This setting applies to only those customer records that have never been synced to Salesforce. Available options are:
a. Sync all customers - All customer records in Chargebee are synced to Salesforce
b. Sync only customers with subscriptions - Only those customer records that have at least one subscription are synced to Salesforce. In case you select this option, you can choose to restrict customers with subscriptions from certain base plans or certain state to sync into Salesforce.
For example: Your business model might offer free trials. But, not all free trials convert to paying customers. In such cases, you might not want to exclude these customers in Chargebee from syncing into Salesforce. You can exclude syncing of in trial customers into Salesforce by selecting the state of the subscription to exclude as "In_Trial".
When you choose to exclude a particular state, say, In_Trial, then:
To use this option, enable Disable syncing of specific plans or subscriptions statuses from Chargebee option.
Select the subscription states that you want to exclude. All the subscription states of Chargebee are available for selection.
If you wish to exclude customers with subscriptions containing specific base plans from syncing into Salesforce, enter the Plan ID of the plan under Enter the plan id of the plan/s that you want to exclude and click Add. You can add multiple plan IDs that you want to exclude. Learn more about Plan IDs.
2. Choose a unique field to identify and map customers from Chargebee to accounts in Salesforce
Here you choose the field in Chargebee (on the left) and Salesforce (on the right) that are used to find matches between customer records in Chargebee and accounts in Salesforce.
This setting only determines the pair of fields used to find matches. It does not alter the field-mapping for actual data sync in any way.
The available fields are as follows:
Fields available in Chargebee:
Fields available for Accounts Object in Salesforce:
All standard and custom fields on the Salesforce account of type string or number are available for selection. Custom fields created by Chargebee on the Salesforce account such as Chargebee email, Chargebee first name, Chargebee last name, Chargebee customer ID etc are not supported.
It is recommended that you choose a pair of fields that are unique. Avoid using company names to match the records as any difference due to data entry/typos (For example: ‘Acme Inc' in Chargebee and ‘Acme Inc.' in Salesforce) affects the mapping.
Fields available for Contacts Object in Salesforce:
All standard and custom fields on the Salesforce account of type string or number are available for selection. Custom fields created by Chargebee on the Salesforce account such as Chargebee email, Chargebee first name, Chargebee last name, Chargebee customer ID etc are not supported.
On skipping records
If the email field is populated for a Chargebee customer, then it searches and attempts to convert a matching lead, provided the lead conversion setting is turned on. You can leave the field empty to skip records from syncing and populate the field for a customer record once you know it should be synced to Salesforce. Remember that if lead lookup is enabled for the integration, the email address field must also be left blank to guarantee that the record is skipped from syncing.
When a Chargebee customer record is to be synced to Salesforce:
The contacts are looked up to find a match.
If a match is found and if that contact is attached to an account, then the latter is deemed as the mapped account and action is taken as per 'Choose what happens when a customer in Chargebee has a matching ‘account' in Salesforce' setting.
If a contact is not found in step 1 or no account is found to be attached at step 2, the account is deemed to be not found and action is taken as per Choose what happens when a customer in Chargebee does not have a matching ‘account' in Salesforce setting.
3. When a Chargebee customer has a matching account in Salesforce
a. Overwrite with Chargebee data: Push data to all standard fields on the account that are part of the standard field mapping.
b. Overwrite empty Salesforce Fields: Push data only to those Standard fields (that are part of the field map) in Salesforce accounts that are empty.
c. Map only: Do not push any data to fields in Salesforce accounts. This setting is useful if you want to establish a link between the Chargebee customer and Salesforce account without field level data interchange.
4. When a Chargebee customer does not have a matching account in Salesforce
When the sync runs, it is possible that account matches are not found for certain customer records. This setting determines the behavior for such conditions. Available options are:
a. Find and convert 'leads' to account: Chargebee looks up lead records using the email address for a match. The account that results from the conversion is mapped to the Chargebee customer record.
This setting makes the following options available:
i. Allow Chargebee to create opportunity in Salesforce when converting leads.
Once a lead is converted to an account, you can enable this option using the toggle button to create an Opportunity in Salesforce.
ii. Select the state to converts leads to.
iii. Specify the account owner when converting lead. Choose from the following dropdown options based on your workflow:
Lead owner: The owner assigned to the lead in Salesforce.
Integration connected user: User that connected the Chargebee-Salesforce integration.
5. When a Chargebee customer does not have a matching lead in Salesforce: Select the action to be performed when Chargebee customer does not have a matching lead in Salesforce.
Available options are:
b. Always create 'account' in Salesforce: Create a new account in Salesforce and sync data to it as per setting 3 (When a Chargebee customer has a matching account in Salesforce). If you select this option, you can choose to Allow Chargebee to create contacts for accounts in Salesforce by enabling the toggle highlighted in the image below.
c. Do nothing: Does not do anything.
Duplicate accounts: When choosing this option, beware of Chargebee customer records with duplicate values for the field chosen in setting 2. Duplicate records do not sync if Salesforce validation rules prevent duplication of account names. We recommend that you setup your processes and automation such that only unique customer records are maintained in Chargebee to prevent issues with integrations.
6. Allow Chargebee to create contacts for Accounts in Salesforce: Enable the toggle if you want to allow Chargebee to create a contact for accounts in Salesforce. However, changes made to a customer in Chargebee will not be automatically updated to the contact in Salesforce
Next, choose the kind of account that you have in Salesforce. Available options are Business account, Person account, and Both. The option to select Person account or Both will be displayed only if Person accounts are enabled, or if a different record type for accounts is configured in Salesforce. This setting will not be visible, if otherwise.
Person Accounts
If you are a business that sells to consumers, then you may be using person accounts in Salesforce. Enable person accounts in Salesforce. Use this guide from Salesforce to see how.
a. Under Choose the kind of accounts you use in Salesforce, select any one of the following:
b. Select a record type under Choose the person record type and Choose the business record type.
c. For person accounts, select an option under Choose how Salesforce should create a Person Account:
7. Select the custom fields that you want to sync from Chargebee to Salesforce
Please note that custom fields can sync only in one direction. This means that you should not choose the same pair of fields selected here for setting 7.
8. Select the custom fields that you want to sync from Salesforce to Chargebee
Please note that custom fields can sync only in one direction. This means that you should not choose the same pair of fields selected in setting 6.
9. Default mapping
If you have certain mandatory fields configured for Salesforce objects such as accounts and/or contacts, specify default values for them here so that the integration does not run into errors when attempting to create them.
The table below lists the field types and fields that are available for selection in the above two steps.

These settings determine how subscriptions created or updated directly in Chargebee or via the integration from Salesforce, interact with opportunities in Salesforce under various conditions.
If you have a self serve model where customers purchase subscriptions or sign up for a free trial directly via your website, then subscriptions are created in Chargebee first. Alternatively, you may have a sales model where the sales team creates opportunities in Salesforce, but subscriptions are created by the finance or operations team directly in Chargebee. In this section, we are going to see the settings that one needs to configure to determine how these subscriptions map to or create opportunities in Salesforce.
1. When a subscription syncs from Chargebee for the first time: Select an option to determine what the integration does when a subscription syncs from Chargebee for the first time. The available options are:
a. Create New: Use this option to create a new opportunity in Salesforce. You need to specify the stage to be set for the newly created opportunity.
Selecting this option updates the stage, opportunity products and price book. And, the subscription has a lookup relationship to the opportunity.
The new opportunity is updated as follows:
b. Map Existing: Under the account mapped to the customer, Chargebee looks for open opportunities that
It then updates the last created of such opportunities as follows:
When you select map existing, Salesforce will check for an existing opportunity for the subscription and map with it. You need to specify the action to perform in case there is no existing opportunity. Available options are Create New, and Do Nothing. If you select Create New, then specify the stage to set to the opportunity. If you select Do nothing, then it does not update anything.
c. Do Nothing: Does not update anything in Salesforce. While this does not update any opportunity or create a new one, it does sync the subscription itself.
2. Trial Subscription: Enable this option if you want to create opportunities for subscriptions that are in trial including canceled subscriptions that have been reactivated with a trial period.
Assign a stage that should be set for the opportunity for in-trial subscription. Note that this is different from stage set for subscriptions that are not in-trial.
3. Subscription Upgrades: Choose how you want to handle the opportunity related to a subscription that is upgraded in Chargebee. A subscription is said to be upgraded when one or more of the following occur:
Available options are: Create New, Update Existing, Do nothing.
The following options are available under this setting:
a. Create a new opportunity
A new opportunity, linked to the same account as the customer, is created in Salesforce. Its opportunity products and price book are set as described here. You can use this option when you want to track every upgrade done in Chargebee as a full value opportunity in Salesforce.
b. Update existing opportunity
The opportunity to which the reference is found on the subscription is updated as described here and its stage is set as per setting 3. If no opportunity is linked to the subscription then nothing happens.
c. Do Nothing
No change is made to the linked opportunity nor is a new opportunity created.
4. Subscription Cancelations: Choose how you want to handle opportunities when a subscription is canceled in Chargebee. Available options are Update Existing and Do nothing. If you choose to update an existing opportunity, select the stage.
5. Additional Field Mapping: Select the Custom fields to sync from Chargebee to Salesforce. You can map the standard or custom fields in Salesforce objects to the standard or custom fields in a Chargebee object.
In this section, we describe the settings that determine how subscriptions that are created from a Salesforce opportunity interact with that opportunity. These settings apply if you have a sales model where all your subscriptions are directly created from Salesforce opportunities.
1. Allow Chargebee to update the opportunity stage when a subscription is synced to Salesforce:
If you send checkout links to your customers then you may want Chargebee to automatically update the stage of the opportunity once the customer has subscribed. On enabling this, Chargebee will be able to move the opportunity to the selected stage once the customer makes the payment.
2. Allow Chargebee to update the opportunity products in Salesforce with subscription's products in Chargebee: Enable this if you want to override the products added in the Opportunity with those in Chargebee's subscription.
3. Allow Chargebee to automatically create/upgrade/renew subscription when an opportunity is won (Beta): This option automatically creates (when the opportunity is for a new subscription) or updates (when the opportunity is for an existing subscription) subscriptions in Chargebee when opportunities are "won" in Salesforce.
Once enabled, you can use the feature as follows:
Update the stage of an opportunity to one that is Closed with a 100% probability: such as closed-won.
Check the Update Chargebee checkbox for the opportunity. (‘Update Chargebee' is a custom field introduced by Chargebee on the opportunity object.)
Immediately, a subscription creation or update operation is triggered in Chargebee for the opportunity. The details of the mechanism of this operation are given below:
a. Creating a subscription
A new subscription is created for opportunities for which products were added using Manage CB Products.
A new subscription is created with the plan and addons that correspond to the opportunity products. The billing and shipping addresses in the account are automatically added to the subscription. It is recommended that the payment method be updated for the customer before attempting this operation or the operation will fail if the option to invoice immediately is chosen and auto-collection is on.
b. Updating a subscription
An existing subscription is updated for opportunities for which products were added using Manage CB Products and choosing Existing Subscription under Manage Products for.
Validations
The existing subscription status must be active, non-renewing or in-trial or this operation is not carried out.
The products of the subscription are replaced — via a change subscription operation — by those in the opportunity.
Updating a subscription from renewal opportunity
This operation is not carried out in the following cases:
A "renewal opportunity" is one that is created as described under Allow Chargebee to create renewal opportunities for subscriptions with finite billing cycles (Beta). For such opportunities, the subscription is updated as follows:
If the renewal happens when the subscription has 2 billing cycles remaining and if the billing cycles defined for the plan at this point is 5, then on renewal, the subscription would have 2 + 5 = 7 billing cycles remaining.
4. Additional Field Mapping: Choose the custom field sync from Salesforce opportunity to Chargebee subscription.
Chargebee allows you to define additional field-mapping. You can map standard or custom fields in Salesforce objects to standard or custom fields in a Chargebee object.
Subscriptions can be termed. In other words, they can run for a finite number of billing cycles. When such subscriptions are near the end of their final billing cycle, your account managers would want to reach out to the customer for renewing the terms. Enable this feature to have Chargebee assist the account managers by automatically creating renewal opportunities for such subscriptions.
Once enabled, you must also configure the how often to run the sync. Available options are Daily, and Weekly.
When the job runs, it creates renewal opportunities for all active and non-renewing subscriptions that have a finite number of billing cycles. However, this is skipped when:
For existing renewal opportunities, the job:
Once renewal opportunities have been created, you can open such an opportunity and carry out the renewal in two ways:
Automatic
You can have the subscription renew itself automatically when the renewal opportunity is won. This is done via the option Allow Chargebee to automatically create/upgrade/renew subscription when an opportunity is won. (Beta). Once the renewal is completed, the opportunity reference field in the CB Subscription record is updated to this renewal opportunity.
Manual
On the opportunity, click on Create/Change Subscription and replace the No. Of Billing Cycles field with the appropriate value (change the value as: current value + the number of billing cycles for the renewed term).
Specify default override values for mandatory fields in Salesforce.
Allow one time and limited period coupons to be used in opportunity product discount calculations: Enable this option if you want to include limited and one time coupons in the discount calculations. This setting impacts the ‘discount' field on the ‘Opportunity product' object.
Whenever Chargebee updates an opportunity from its related subscription, the following actions are performed:
A quote in Chargebee is a document used to let a potential buyer know how much the goods or services will cost before they commit to the purchase.
Use Salesforce approval process for quotes: Enable this if you want the Send email operation for Chargebee quotes to be restricted until the quote is approved via a Salesforce approval process.
Attach a quote acceptance link in the emails sent from Salesforce: Enabling this option will include the quote acceptance link in the email body while composing it.
Default Values for Products or Price Book Entries: Specify default values for mandatory fields in Salesforce. Available objects are Pricebook, and product.
Sync Rules for Custom Field in Plans: Allow custom fields to sync from Chargebee plans to Salesforce. Available objects are Pricebook, and Product.
Sync Rules for Custom Field in Addons: Allow custom fields to sync from Chargebee addons to Salesforce. Available objects are Pricebook, and Product.
Chargebee site settings: This section displays information of the connected Chargebee site. The labels Items Model and Items Family are indicated as Disabled if the Chargebee site is on Product Catalog 1.0.
Email Notifications: Notifications can be configured to alert admins or other users of an auto-sync job failure. Add any email address and choose the notification interval. If the sync frequency for the integration is more frequent than the email notification frequency you receive will be a summary of sync failures.
When choosing an interval, your organisation's email limit will count against this. In this situation, with a sync time of 10 minutes and an alert frequency of every job in one day, you would receive 144 emails in a day.
Chargebee Sync Jobs and Logs: The number of logs generated by the integration could build up overtime. You can use the Chargebee sync Jobs and Logs section to set a frequency to automatically clean up the logs for the records that were successfully synced. Available options are Daily, Weekly, and Monthly.
Chargebee's Salesforce integration now supports the ability to use multiple pricebooks! This is considered an Advanced feature and should only be used by users familiar with multiple pricebooks in Salesforce.
The Integration will now have two options when configuring products / plans.
1. Standard - No change from existing behavior today, Chargebee will sync all products into the Chargebee Pricebook.
2. Advanced - You can choose which Plans, Addons and Charges are available in which pricebooks. These products should be manually added to pricebooks the same way you would add standard Salesforce products. Once your products are configured into their respective price books, at the opportunity level choose what pricebook you would like to use. The Chargebee visual force pages will only show the Plans, Addons and Charges available in the associated pricebook.
If you split a mandatory add on from a plan in Salesforce and it does not get pushed to Chargebee the subscription creation may throw an error.
Once you set the rules and click proceed, a pre-validation to sync the records will be established. In the case of errors, it will be displayed. It is recommended that you fix the issues and retry the validation. Learn more about how/what information is validated
The first 10 records will be synced between Chargebee and Salesforce. Information such as Subscriptions, Plans, Add-ons, Customer, and Invoices will be synced. Using this feature you can ensure that the data sync happens as per the settings that you have configured. Click Run Initial Sync.
In case you face any issues, you can fix them and retry or choose to ignore them and proceed with the full sync. You can address these issues any time.
Once the initial sync is successful, click Proceed to run the full sync. This operation syncs all Subscriptions, Plans, Add-ons, Customer, Invoices, and Credit note data from Chargebee into Salesforce as per the configuration rules specified. That said, the first full sync will not create or update opportunities in Salesforce.
Next, enable Auto sync and set the frequency for the sync. You can choose to sync the data every hour, every 6 hours or once a day.
Once the settings are changed, historical records are unaffected unless mentioned otherwise.
You can manage the Sync Health by navigating to Chargebee Integration > Sync Health in your Salesforce App. This dashboard lists the last 5 sync jobs that are completed in reverse chronological order.
The Sync Logs tab contains record-level logs for the syncing process, thereby providing an audit trail for the integration. If you have multiple Chargebee sites connected to the Salesforce org, click on the Chargebee domain dropdown to see the data for the appropriate Chargebee site. By default, logs with Error Status as Failed are displayed. You can change the setting by clicking the filter icon and modifying the filters as appropriate.
Each record in Sync Logs has the following fields:
Chargebee Object: The type of Chargebee record. This is always one among the Chargebee objects shown in the object-mapping diagram.
Chargebee ID: The unique identifier of the Chargebee record that failed to sync.
Error Type: Whenever a record fails to sync, an attempt to resync the record is made twice a day. For the first 9 times that a record is attempted to sync, its Error Type is Soft. If the record does not sync on the 10th attempt, the Error Type is marked Hard. Such records are not automatically retried again. However, you can retry syncing any record, including Hard failures, by selecting the checkbox in the first column of the record(s) and clicking Sync Now. If you click Sync Now with all checkboxes cleared, then all the Failed records are retried.
Sync Date and Time: The last time an attempt to sync this record was made.
Error Status: If the sync has failed in the last attempt, the status shows Failed; if it was successful in the last attempt, the status shows Success.
Reason: Explains the reason for the sync failure. The possible values are tabulated below. There are also some unclassified errors for which you would see a descriptive error message in this field. Contact Support to help fix such errors.
Solution: Often, a record fails to sync because another record (of a different Chargebee object) that the former is dependent on, has not synced yet. While the Reason field indicates the name of this required object, the Solution field gives the unique identifier for the object record.
The table below lists and explains all the possible values of the Reason field on the Sync Logs page.

The Sync Rules tab lists the Sync settings that you have initially configured. You can edit the sync rules from this page.
The Advanced Actions tab allows you to:
You can unlink an integration by clicking the Unlink Integration option. If you want to add a new Chargebee domain, click Get Started.
The Unlink Integration option is useful if you want to temporarily disconnect the integration for some reason. ‘Unlinking' does not clear any Chargebee data on Salesforce, but it will clear the stored Chargebee API key and remove scheduled sync jobs for the connected Chargebee site.
When records synced from Chargebee have been accidentally deleted or need to be resynced due to any other reason, use the options in the Retrieve Data tab to do so. You can do one of the following:
The following Chargebee objects are supported:
If you use picklists for fields in Salesforce then there are chances of sync errors if the Chargebee data flowing in, does not conform to the picklist options.
Say a field country is a picklist in Salesforce with "United States" as an option. If the data coming in from the mapped Chargebee field happens to be "USA", it results in a sync error.
It is recommended that you:
Ramps is currently in the Chargebee EAP Program, please reach out to eap@chargebee.comto have this enabled on your Chargebee site, ensure you're on version 1.60+ an above. Once Ramps are enabled within Chargebee, a sync from the Salesforce integration must be completed before they can be used from Salesforce.
Unified Workflow for Subscription and Ramps: Create subscriptions and define ramps seamlessly in a single workflow.
Enhanced Subscription Management UI: Easily create or update subscriptions using the intuitive subscription management interface.
Ramp Details in Salesforce: Salesforce objects store ramp-related details, enabling integration with PDFs, eSignatures, reporting, and automation through Flows.
Ramp Synchronization: Automatically sync ramps from Chargebee to the Chargebee Subscription Object in Salesforce for up-to-date data.
Ramp Management in Salesforce: Manage ramps directly from the Chargebee Subscription Object in Salesforce with the following actions:
View Existing Ramps: Access and review ramps already associated with the subscription.
Remove Existing Ramps: Remove outdated or unnecessary ramps.
Add New Ramps: Add additional ramps as needed to meet customer requirements.
With the introduction of Ramp Pricing to the Chargebee-Salesforce integration, new objects have been added to support this feature effectively:
CB Ramp: Represents the ramp structure within a subscription.
CB Ramp Line Item: Stores details of individual line items, including product information.
CB Ramp Coupon: Holds information about coupons applied to the ramp.
For a comprehensive overview of field mapping between Chargebee and Salesforce for these objects, refer to the Salesforce Field Mapping page.
Existing ramps cannot be modified directly. To make adjustments, the ramp must be removed and re-added.
Chargebee Quoting does not yet support Ramps
The Create/Change Subscription screen only supports adding new ramps. It does not allow modifications to existing ones.
Pausing a subscription automatically removes all associated ramps. When the subscription is resumed, the ramps need to be re-added manually.
