Best Practice for Synchronizing 'Industry' Field Between Account and Contact Entities

Posted on by 96

Hello Everyone,

I am looking for the best practice to ensure that the 'Industry' field in the Contact entity is automatically created and synchronized to always reflect the same value as the 'Industry' field in the Account entity, which is of the type Choice (Non Sync with global choice). Our goal is to maintain data consistency across our CRM, and we want to implement a solution that will automatically update the Contact's 'Industry' field whenever the Account's 'Industry' is modified.

Could anyone share their insights or experiences on the most efficient method to achieve this? Whether it's through workflows, plugins, Power Automate, or any other approach, I would greatly appreciate your recommendations on ensuring this field remains consistent across both entities.

Thank you for your time and assistance!
