InterWeave SmartSolutions

Welcome to Customer Onboarding.

InterWeave SmartSolutions offers a structured, 12-step onboarding process to facilitate seamless integration between your CRM and financial applications. This process is designed to be collaborative — involving both your team and InterWeave's Technical Specialists — to ensure the integration aligns precisely with your specific business processes and workflows.

Phase 1 — Initial Engagement (Steps I–VI) Phase 2 — Setup & Go-Live (Steps VII–XII)
I–VI
Phase One
Initial Customer Engagement.
6 steps
I Step 1
Step I
Welcome Call or Meeting

InterWeave starts with a personal welcome call to introduce the platform and understand the unique needs of your organisation. This session establishes the relationship between your team and your dedicated InterWeave Technical Specialist, sets expectations for the onboarding timeline, and identifies any early questions or concerns.

Your Technical Specialist will be your primary point of contact throughout the entire onboarding process — from this welcome call through post-deployment optimisation.
II Step 2
Step II
Data Collection

Gather essential customer information to inform business decisions and tailor services to your specific needs. Three documents are collected at this stage:

Doc 1
Solutions Definition Document — defines the scope, integration objectives, and expected outcomes for your deployment
Doc 2
Solutions Technical Details Document — captures the technical specifications of your CRM, financial application, and connectivity environment
Doc 3
Documents submitted by Customer — any additional context, existing documentation, or requirements your team provides
III Step 3
Step III
Video Meeting — Requirements Review

A structured video meeting is scheduled via Zoom or Google Meet to walk through your requirements in detail. Meetings are recorded using Firefly.ai for accurate transcription and follow-up documentation — ensuring nothing is missed and all agreed requirements are captured.

This session covers integration flows, data object mapping priorities, timeline preferences, and any constraints or dependencies on your side.

IV Step 4
Step IV
Customer Verification

Authenticate customer details as a standard security protocol to ensure data integrity and compliance before proceeding with service agreements. Two documents are completed at this stage:

MSA
Master Services Agreement (MSA) — the governing agreement outlining service scope, terms, and responsibilities
INV
Invoice — issued for review prior to payment authorisation at Step V
V Step 5
Step V
Customer Approval

Review and approve customer records, facilitating a smooth transition into the system. This step formally activates the engagement and authorises the InterWeave team to proceed with technical setup.

Master Services Agreement (MSA) signed — executed agreement confirming all parties' commitments
Payment received — confirms the engagement is live and technical work may begin
VI Step 6
Step VI
Plan & Timeline

With the MSA signed and payment received, the InterWeave team builds a detailed project plan and deployment timeline aligned with your go-live target. This plan defines milestones for each subsequent step, assigns responsibilities, and confirms the configuration scope for Phase 2.

Configuration scope confirmed and documented
Technical Specialist assignments confirmed
Go-live target date established
VII–XII
Phase Two
Setting Up Your Solution.
6 steps
VII Step 7
Step VII
Initial Setup & Customisation

Technical configuration begins with two parallel workstreams — CRM customisation and financial application preparation:

CRM Customisation
Create or update custom fields and objects within your CRM (e.g., Salesforce or Creatio) to support the integration. This ensures all necessary data points are captured and mapped correctly between systems.
Financial Application Prep
Configure your financial application (e.g., QuickBooks) by setting up custom fields such as "AccountID" to bind records between systems and ensure it is ready for integration.
VIII Step 8
Step VIII
Connectivity Setup

Establish the technical connections between your CRM and financial applications. The approach varies by deployment type:

Cloud
Cloud-based applications — configure online connections via secure API credentials and OAuth authentication
On-Prem
On-premises applications — install connectors and configure firewalls to allow secure, controlled data exchange between systems
Your team provides credentials and access permissions to InterWeave's Technical Specialists for setup — including integration users with appropriate administrative capabilities.
IX Step 9
Step IX
Registration & Solution Configuration

Register your company on the InterWeave Solutions Portal by selecting "New Company? Please Register Here" and entering your unique registration information.

Work with your InterWeave Technical Specialist to configure your integration solution — selecting the appropriate flows and settings that align with your business requirements. This is where the integration blueprint defined in Phase 1 becomes a live configuration.

Business process and workflow alignment confirmed
X Step 10
Step X
Activation & Testing

This multi-stage step covers flow activation, pilot testing, feedback, and knowledge transfer:

10.1
Flow Activation — activate individual integration flows (e.g., Account to Customer, Opportunity to Invoice) and conduct thorough testing. Create test records and verify information is correctly transferred and mapped between systems.
10.2
Pilot Programme — before full-scale deployment, a pilot allows you to test the platform's features in a real-world environment. A feedback loop ensures any necessary adjustments are made before full rollout.
10.3
Training & Knowledge Transfer — in-depth training sessions for your team, access to user manuals, FAQs, and tutorials. Collaborate with Technical Specialists to resolve any issues identified during testing.
XI Step 11
Step XI
Full Deployment & Go-Live

After successful testing and any necessary adjustments, the system is fully deployed and your team begins using the integration in day-to-day operations.

Final Setup
All configurations confirmed, all flows validated, credentials secured, and the integration is live across your CRM and financial application environments.
Ongoing Monitoring
InterWeave ensures the system continues to run smoothly post-launch — offering support to address any emerging issues or questions during the critical initial period.
