Orders From Heroku

Third Party Push To SFTP To Go, Heroku Grabs Files, Heroku Pushes To Salesforce

I wrote custom middleware in Heroku using node.js to grab order information from SFTP To Go and parse the XML full of orders and order lines. Upon parsing the data we would look for existing people in Salesforce, create or update Person Account records, create Orders, query Products/Pricebook Enteries, and create Order Lines.

IMPACT

Removed manual order entry and kept Salesforce accounts and orders in sync with the source system automatically.
