MS Dynamics Opportunities info not syncing on Marketo

Question

Hi everyone,
 
I'm working on my leadlifecycle from Marketo to Dynamics and I'm now focusing on the Opportunities status. The overall sync is working properly and info were always syncing well from one side to the other.
 
But I did some testing on the opportunities and nothing were triggered on Marketo. The information that an opportunity has been created for a contact is not available anywhere but on Dynamics.
 
Here is the steps I followed on my test :
1. Created a contact on Dynamics (me)
2. Synced the contact to Marketo
3. Created an opportunity on MS and set the synced entity as the primary contact (still me)

4. Checked the Opportunity tab and Log on Marketo : Nothing never happenned

Is it due to some misconfiguration during the synchronisation? I did not sync much of the standard fields during the config so that may be why. If that is the case, which should I sync to have the opportunity trigger work?
 
So at the moment, every Dynamics contact are stuck with the "Accepted by Sales" status and cannot go further in the leadlifecycle I set (Has created Opportunity, Opportunity Won/Lost, Recyled...). Here is the campaign I want to trigger by the way :

At the moment I don't necessarily need to have all the info that is filled on the MS Opportunity tab, only if an opportunity has been created.
 
Hope you can help me with this one.

Thanks for the support @oz_platero.

I will try updating the 2018 opportunities to check if the data value changes on Marketo. I will file a support ticket right after that I guess and provide the solution (crossing fingers) here for everyone to benefit from it.

Keep you posted.

Hi,

I'm updating this thread since I fixed the issue just recently.

Two things were missing in our Opportunity sync configuration.

The first one : https://nation.marketo.com/t5/Knowledgebase/Opportunity-Attribution-for-Dynamics-Integrations/ta-p/250296

The customerid hidden field was empty and was not filled automatically with the default contact field information. We made sure that customerid was auto-filled with the same info we had on the contact field.

The second one : SynctoMkto.

While the global sync was running well, we totally forgot that, like Leads, Contacts and Accounts, Opportunities had to be synchronized like any other entity by setting the SyncToMkto field to Yes to communicate properly with Marketo.

Once these two things set, everything was running perfectly well.

My lead lifecycle is now running till the end 🙂

Hello @thomas_morgadin , Alternative:Can you try trigger:  Opportunity (Contact) is Updated and see what Trigger attribute + Constraint may work for you?Thank you
