# Customer and transaction intelligence in Salesforce

Because every transaction executes inside Salesforce, each sale leaves behind structured, contextual data, not just a payment confirmation. Over time, this builds actionable customer intelligence that drives better service, upsell, and repeat business.

The challenge

## When Salesforce knows a sale happened, but not how

When transaction data comes from external POS systems and integrations, Salesforce often lacks the configuration choices, pricing decisions, and interaction context that explain each sale. The result: incomplete customer history, thin reporting, and teams relying on assumptions instead of real data. Salesforce records that a transaction happened, but not how it happened.

-   ### Incomplete customer records
    
    Salesforce may show that a payment was made, but not what was sold, how it was configured, or how pricing was determined.
    
    ### Incomplete customer records
    
    Salesforce may show that a payment was made, but not what was sold, how it was configured, or how pricing was determined.
    
-   ### Lost upsell opportunities
    
    Without full transaction data, teams cannot identify patterns, preferences, or future buying signals.

The Eposly Approach 

## Every transaction builds customer intelligence

Eposly captures transaction data directly inside Salesforce, including products, pricing logic, discounts, and customer context. Each transaction becomes a complete, structured record of the interaction, not just a financial event.

Over time, this creates a reliable customer purchase history in Salesforce, built from real interactions, not reconstructed or synced data. Teams can understand how customers actually buy, personalize every interaction, and make decisions based on complete, accurate information.

Unlike external CDPs that require syncing transaction data from multiple sources, Eposly captures purchase intelligence at the moment of sale — directly in Salesforce, with no data pipeline, no Segment integration, and no separate analytics tool required.

Most systems report what was sold. Eposly shows how and why it was sold.

### What gets captured in Salesforce

Every transaction in Eposly captures a complete view of the sale:

What was sold

Products, configurations, options, and quantities

How it was priced

Base price, discounts, overrides, and negotiated pricing

Who bought it

Customer record, purchase history, preferences, and account context

When and where

Timestamp, location, channel, and interaction context

“ Orders automatically link to the customer account in Salesforce… we can easily view purchase history. We can compare onsite sales vs web sales directly in Salesforce.”

In practice

## Where transaction data becomes customer intelligence

Specialty RetailPublic SectorHealthcare

![Specialty retail interior where every sale enriches the Salesforce customer record with transaction intelligence](/assets/industry-retail-CGBPx3ul.webp)

### Every assisted sale builds customer memory

A customer buys an engagement ring in a jewellery boutique. The configuration, stone choice, and pricing decisions are captured on the Salesforce customer record. A few months later, the same customer orders a matching pendant online through Commerce Cloud. When they return to the boutique to choose wedding bands, the associate sees both purchases on one record: how the ring was configured, what was bought online, and what the customer already owns. Marketing Cloud picks up from there with maintenance reminders and anniversary follow-ups based on real purchase history, not reconstructed data.

Why Salesforce-native

## Why capturing transaction data inside Salesforce matters

Because Eposly is the only 100% Salesforce-native POS, every transaction becomes immediately usable intelligence across the entire Salesforce platform — at the moment the sale completes, not after a nightly sync. Sell with real purchase history. Serve with complete transaction context. Market with actual behavioural signals, not imported approximations. Because it runs natively, this intelligence flows directly into Commerce Cloud, Marketing Cloud, Service Cloud, Health Cloud, Manufacturing Cloud, and Public Sector Solutions — without connectors or a separate data layer.

-   ### Complete Customer 360 with transaction data
    
    Every transaction updates the customer record with products, pricing, and interaction details.
    
-   ### Native Salesforce reporting and dashboards
    
    All transaction data is immediately available in Salesforce reports, no syncing or ETL required.
    
-   ### No external analytics dependency
    
    Customer and sales intelligence is built directly in Salesforce, not in separate systems.
    
-   ### Automation-ready transaction data
    
    Trigger workflows, follow-ups, and marketing actions based on real transaction events.

## Frequently asked questions

### How do I track customer purchase history in Salesforce?

By default, Salesforce does not capture full transaction-level data unless transactions are created inside the platform. Eposly records every transaction directly on the customer record, including products, pricing, and payment, enabling a complete customer purchase history in Salesforce.

### Why is my Salesforce reporting missing transaction data?

In many setups, transaction data comes from external POS or payment systems and is only partially synced into Salesforce. This results in incomplete reporting and limited visibility. Eposly solves this by creating transactions directly inside Salesforce, ensuring all data is immediately available for reporting and analysis.

### Does Eposly data integrate with Salesforce reports and dashboards?

Yes. All transaction data is stored natively in Salesforce objects and is immediately available in standard Salesforce reports, dashboards, and list views.

### Can Eposly transaction data trigger marketing automations?

Yes. Because data lives in Salesforce, it can trigger Flows, Marketing Cloud journeys, and any Salesforce automation based on transaction events.

### What data is captured from each transaction?

Each transaction captures: products configured, options selected, pricing applied, discounts used, payment method, payment status, and the complete order, all on the customer record.

### Does Eposly replace the need for a separate BI or analytics tool?

For transaction-level intelligence, Eposly data is natively available in Salesforce reports and dashboards without any ETL or external tool. For advanced analytics beyond Salesforce reporting, the data can be exported or connected to BI tools through standard Salesforce integrations.

### What kind of visibility do we actually gain?

You can see all transactions, including in-person, directly in Salesforce, linked to customers, locations, and staff.

### How is this different from traditional reporting setups?

There is no need to combine data from multiple systems. All transaction data is already in Salesforce, making reporting immediate and consistent.

### Can we act on transaction data in real time?

Yes. Transaction events can trigger automation, such as follow-ups, alerts, or operational workflows.

### Can we analyze performance across locations or teams?

Yes. Transaction data can be segmented and analyzed across stores, service points, or teams using standard Salesforce reporting.

### How does this support customer understanding?

Every transaction is tied to a customer record, giving a complete view of interactions, purchases, and behavior over time.

### Do we need additional tools to get value from this data?

No. You can use Salesforce dashboards, reports, and automation directly on the data without exporting or syncing.
