Creating or updating leads, contacts, or accounts in your CRM system

The Run Integration Rules form-processing step creates or updates contacts or accounts in your integrated CRM system. Use it to ensure that submitted data is consistent across your marketing and sales data environment, so that it is ready for use in targeting, segmentation, lead scoring, and reporting.

When configuring this form processing step, you specify the integration rules you want to invoke to move the contact data. You can manually specify the integration rule set or you can use one of the following options:

• Use a picklist - Use this option if the form contains information that you can configure Oracle Eloqua to use to determine the integration rule set to be used. See Using picklists with form processing steps for more information.
• Use the value of a form field - Use this option if your form specifies the integration rule set. For example, if different regions use their own CRM integration, you can have separate forms each region, and use hidden form fields to specify the appropriate rule set.
