Product Updates

Sync and view client and portfolio data in Salesforce

Salesforce is one of the leading CRM systems advisors use, ranked third in market share according to a 2021 Kitces Report on advisor tech. Starting October 28th, new capabilities within the Addepar for Salesforce integration will make it even easier for you to view and use client and portfolio data in-the-moment.

Addepar’s new two-way data sync will eliminate the need to manually enter client and legal entity information on both our platform and Salesforce. When you create and edit accounts in Sales Cloud and Financial Services Cloud, clients and legal entities will be automatically updated in Addepar. Additionally, users can send firm data, including ownership structure updates, time-weighted return and account balances, directly to Salesforce and view within the app via Addepar’s new Performance Widget

Portfolio data visible in Salesforce includes: financial account, balances, month-to-date (MTD) TWR, quarter-to-date (QTD) TWR, inception-to-date (ITD) TWR and total (A combined balance and TWR).

Access recently-run views instantly in the Analysis tool

Daily tasks just became quicker! When using the Analysis tool, no longer wait for frequently-accessed portfolio information to load after the first time you access it each day. Now, data in a view is stored so that when you return, the view opens instantly, rather than loading all of the data again. This feature will be on by default, but can be turned on or off in the Personal Settings section of the global navigation bar.

Toggle through a variety of different views quickly and effectively.

Review the Version 2.196 Release Notes for other updates we’ve made to Billing, Mobile, Navigator and more. Not a client? Reach out to our team at bd@addepar.com for more information.
