Considerations before installing an app from the App Exchange

  • Ensure integration between app and Salesforce is supported
  • Make sure app is Lightning compatible
  • Test installation in sandbox before installing in production
  • Generate reports using the test data and compare to legacy system to ensure nothing is missing
  • Map all fields in app to Salesforce standard objects and customize Salesforce for custom objects
  • Designate users based on profiles, such as admin, and set permissions accordingly
  • Review whether the application will need to be configured for mobile users
  • Create or modify page layouts
  • Create processes, flows and/or workflows
  • Review Salesforce reports to ensure fields from app exist
  • Perform any customizations, as needed; e.g., when creating mass merge in SDOC for template creations
