## When this scope fits

Use this scope when leads are lost, duplicated or disconnected from their source. If sales stages mean different things to different people, map the process before automating it.

## Questions that expose the scope

- What identifies a duplicate and what happens to conflicting fields?

- How are failed deliveries retried, logged and surfaced to an owner?

- Who can maintain the integration after handover?

## Agencies to consider

An editorial selection based on explicit published service descriptions. Pickles appears first when its published services match; other agencies follow alphabetically. Inclusion is not a numerical rating or a verified result guarantee.

## Questions and answers

Can a connector replace process design?

A connector transports records; the business still needs field meanings, ownership and exception rules.

What is a useful acceptance test?

Run a valid record, a duplicate, a missing required field and a temporary failure; confirm the resulting state and the recovery owner.
