๐Ÿ› ๏ธ Step#3 - Additional Required Configurations

๐Ÿ“Š Quotation Settings (Optional)

๐Ÿ“ˆ Pipeline Stage Mapping

Salesbuildr maps opportunity stages to your HaloPSA pipeline. If pipeline stage mapping is not enabled in Halo, the mapping process will fail.

  1. Go to: Configuration > Sales > General Settings

  2. Ensure that Enable Pipeline Stages is enabled

Now switch over to Salesbuildr application to setup Halo PSA configuration in Salesbuildr.


โš™๏ธSetup in Salesbuildr

Note;

  • The website must be configured in Halo for the primary customer and must match the MSP company created in Salesbuildr.

  • Opportunity webhook updates (fields like type, name, pipeline stage, team, and agent) may not trigger correctly in HaloPSA. Only status updates work at the moment.

  • Product update webhook is not yet supported by HaloPSA and planned to be released mid-november

๐Ÿ”ง Step 1: Enable Integration

  1. Go to your Salesbuildr Dashboard

  2. Click the Configure your PSA Integration

  3. Toggle HaloPSA and click Configure

  4. In the window that opens, enter the following

    • HaloPSA Domain URL (Tenant URL)

    • Client ID

    • Client Secret.

  5. Click Save

You can also access this under: Settings > Integrations > Manage > Halo

๐Ÿ”ง Step 2: Complete Field Mapping

Once saved, a mapping window opens to configure sync settings between HaloPSA and Salesbuildr.

1. Primary client selection

  • Select the primary client for the synchronization. This client will be linked to your existing Salesbuildr MSP primary company.

2. Product Group Mappings

  • Map the HaloPSA product groups to Salesbuildr product types.

Important Note: In Product Category Mapping in Salesbuildr, only Halo Asset Groups marked as Items are shown, as these correctly map to Salesbuildr categories.

3. Opportunity Mapping

  • Set a default Opportunity Type

  • Select the opportunities (multi select) that need to be imported from HaloPSA to Salesbuildr based on their type.

  • Map opportunity statuses between platforms

4. Company type

  • Select the company prospect type to use while importing HaloPSA Accounts.

By default its Customer type but if in Halo PSA you have selected Use Accounts and Prospects for Opportunities settings (see Halo article), then select Lead. This introduces two new CRM entity types:

  • Accounts: Potential customers that become Customers once the account is signed.

  • Prospects: Contacts linked to Accounts; become Users once the Account becomes a Customer.

  • Also set your desired address mapping. Note that the Region/Country fields will already map to dedicated fields in Halo

5. Quote Status Mapping

  • Match quote statuses between Salesbuildr and HaloPSA

Click save to start setup. Salesbuildr automatically:

  • Sync company types from Halo.

  • Import and map product/service categories

  • Sync fields, contacts, companies, and manufacturers

  • Sync products

Click confirm once complete.

You can return to this mapping under Settings > Integrations > Halo

๐Ÿ”ง Step 3: Configure default category & Shipping Product

1. Shipping Product Mapping

Go to: Settings > Integrations > Halo > Products > Defaults Tab

  • Select a product to represent shipping costs

  • This product will appear as a separate line item on quotes when shipping is added

2. Default Product Category

Then in the same tab, select Default HaloPSA Category to use this Halo product group as a fallback when sending products to HaloPSA that do not have a category mapped.

3. Product group Account Codes

Go to: Settings > Integrations > Halo > Account Codes

  • Configure account codes per product group if needed

  • Note: Account codes can be set on a product level as well. If not set or selected on product level, below group-level configuration will be applied as default when creating product in Salesbuildr.
