How does the integration work between MRPeasy and Pipedrive?

The integration gaps different operational roles in a company so that all sales activities can take place in Pipedrive, and all manufacturing and fulfillment activities - order fulfillment, production planning and reporting, inventory control, and procurement - take place in MRPeasy.

It works like this:

1. When a deal in Pipedrive reaches a specified stage, it will be automatically imported to MRPeasy as a Customer Order (CO).
2. Once the customer order is imported to MRPeasy, then
   - the deal in Pipedrive can be automatically moved to a next stage,
   - it is possible to either manually or automatically book goods in MRPeasy.
3. If in MRPeasy the products become available and the order is ready for shipment or is shipped, then
   - the corresponding deal in Pipedrive can be automatically moved to the next stages,
   - and notes about the events can be added automatically to the deals.

Particular actions (stages and notes) are configured during the setup and can be customized later.

Import customer information from Pipedrive

For privacy and data consistency reasons, it is advised to have customer information in one place only. That is, if the main CRM is Pipedrive, better to have his contact details in Pipedrive only. In this case, MRPeasy will create a customer with the name only in MRPeasy CRM, and use it for all orders that are imported from Pipedrive.

Depending on your business specifics, you may want to import customer information from Pipedrive to MRPeasy.

To import customer address from Pipedrive to MRPeasy:

1. Go to Settings -> System settings -> Integrations -> Pipedrive.
2. Configure the integration between Pipedrive and MRPeasy.
3. Select the option "Import addresses".

When a new customer is created:

• Pipedrive "Company" or "Person" -> MRPeasy customer "Name".
• If the customer has several addresses in Pipedrive, the first one will be imported to MRPeasy.

To import more customer information, select the "Synchronize Customers" option. The software will show all possible fields for organizations and people from Pipedrive, and you can choose which information to import.

Synchronization is one-way to avoid collisions. When information changes in Pipedrive, it is updated in MRPeasy automatically, but not vice versa.
