To start synchronizing your orders with Salesforce you need to set desired settings on the Salesforce Orders Configuration page
Go to Magneto Admin panel - Salesforce - Orders
Set next option for example
Order Configuration tab
1. Automated Synchronization - Yes
Created orders and any changes with them will be automatically synchronized.
2. Zero Grand Total - Synchronize
Will synchronize orders with zero grand total
3. Synchronize Order Notes - Yes

4. Default Status - Draft

5. Sync all orders - Yes
Synchronize all orders regardless of Magento status
Advanced tab
1. Create Order - For Paid order
2. Create Opportunity - No
All information about the orders is sent to Salesforce according to the fields mapping
Go to Magento Admin panel - Salesforce - Fields Mapping - Order
Go to Magento Admin panel - Salesforce - Fields Mapping - Order Product
Go to Magento Admin panel - Salesforce - Fields Mapping - Order Status
Also, you have the ability to create your own custom mappings
Click on the “Add new mapping“ button
Select “Magento Attribute”
Select “Salesforce Attribute”

Now let's check how the Orders synchronization works

Click Cart icon - “Proceed to Checkout“ button
