Publish Fields in Salesforce to Salesforce
Once you publish an object, you can select which individual fields on that object are published. For standard objects that are published, a default set of fields is automatically published.

You cannot publish fields that you do not have permission to edit. Changes to fields may not show up in the subscribing connection for up to 15 minutes while Salesforce refreshes the cache. This cache enables us to support larger transaction volumes and reduce the number of API calls that count against your organization's limits. You cannot publish rich text area (RTA) fields. Geolocation fields and latitude and longitude on standard addresses aren’t supported in Salesforce to Salesforce. By default, the following fields are published.
- Account: Account Name, and, if you are using person accounts, Last Name
- Attachment: Body, Content Type, File Name
- Case: Subject
- Case Comment: Body and Published
- Contact: Last Name
- Custom Object: Name
- Lead: Last Name and Company
- Opportunity: Name, Closed Date, and Stage
- Product: Product Name
- Task: Subject
- Opportunity Product: Quantity, Sales Price
Salesforce to Salesforce displays the API label for each field.
- Click Save.
When you update the published fields for a connection, Salesforce sends an email notification to the connected organization. You can customize this email by editing the Update Connection communication template.
Your business partner is automatically unsubscribed to fields when you stop publishing a field, delete a custom field to which your business partner is subscribed, change the type of a field to which your business partner is subscribed, and change the size or precision of a long text area, text, percent, number, or currency field.
