Field defaults and custom mappings

When setting up the Stripe Billing Connector for Salesforce CPQ, you use the data mapper to map the fields from the Salesforce objects to corresponding fields on the Stripe objects.

Not all objects have a Stripe ID field in the data mapper. For example, the subscription schedule phase item doesn’t have a Stripe ID, so you can’t add a Stripe ID custom field to the Salesforce order line. However, you can still configure the object in the data mapper.

The connector automatically maps the following objects:

Custom mappings

You can create a custom mapping based on the standard and custom fields you use in Salesforce.

Examples

• You use a custom field to identify if a price book entry is metered or licensed. You can map that custom field to recurring.usage_type on the Stripe Price object.

• You use a custom field for the tax ID number on a Salesforce account. You can map that custom field to the corresponding field in Stripe.

• You want to identify all customers in your Stripe account that the connector created. You can add a custom metadata field called Source with a default value of Salesforce for the Stripe Customer object.

If there’s a one-to-one relationship to map between the object and object type, you can use the path to a Salesforce field as the mapping source. For example, you can map a custom field from the account of a Salesforce order to a custom metadata field on a Stripe subscription schedule. However, if an account has multiple orders, you can’t create a mapping between the Salesforce account and an order field.
