Verify That You Meet the Next-Generation Product Requirements
After considering Outlook Integration and Einstein Activity Capture features to replace
Salesforce for Outlook, which is retiring, verify that you meet product requirements. Review
requirements for your reps’ computing environments and your Salesforce editions and licenses. Meet
with your Microsoft Exchange or IT admin and the person at your company who manages your
Salesforce account, if that’s not you.

Note To work with the Salesforce for Outlook Migration
Worksheets, click the link, and then copy and paste the sheets into a new Quip
document. Or use another application that edits spreadsheets, such as Microsoft Excel or
Google Sheets. After you copy and paste each sheet into your own spreadsheet, make it your
own. Track notes and progress to keep organized during your rollout. Plus, we give you
advice about how to use it along the way.
Meet with your Microsoft Exchange or IT admin and review the resources listed in steps a,
b, and c. Confirm that your reps’ computing environments and your Exchange server configuration
support the next-generation products.
If changes to your server are needed, discuss with your Exchange or IT admin whether it’s
possible to update your reps’ computing environments to meet system requirements. Establish a
timeline for implementing changes. If using the migration worksheets, track action items on
the Setup Req. Checklist sheet.
Plan for any required changes. If using the migration worksheets, track action items on the

notes each release to learn whether the enhancement you want was delivered. Or, explore
