Overview
Reachdesk can sync gift activity into Salesforce Campaign Member Statuses. For clean reporting and easier analysis, align your Salesforce member statuses as closely as possible to Reachdesk’s standard statuses.
Note: Statuses do not have to match Reachdesk exactly. However, keeping them consistent makes reporting and filtering much easier.

Update statuses in Salesforce
Before mapping, please make sure your campaign is "Active" and "In Progress" in Salesforce.

Configure status mapping inside a Reachdesk campaign
Where to find the mapping controls
Inside a Reachdesk campaign, locate the Sync gift activity section. This section appears at the bottom of the campaign setup when a Salesforce integration is connected.

In the campaign, open Sync gift activity.
Select your integration user.
Select the relevant Salesforce Campaign.
Click Setup Campaign Member Status Mapping.
-
In the mapping modal:
Left side: Reachdesk standard statuses.
Right side: statuses from the connected Salesforce Campaign / Marketo Program.
Select the correct matching statuses.
Click Ok.

Best-practice recommendations
Campaign structure: 1:1 mapping vs many:1 mapping
There are three ways to map Reachdesk campaigns to Salesforce campaigns:
One Reachdesk campaign to one Salesforce campaign – recommended for granular reporting
Multiple Reachdesk campaigns to one Salesforce campaign – simpler, but less granular
Mapping by initiative – fewer Salesforce campaigns, while still tracking ROI per motion
Use a 1:1 mapping (one Reachdesk campaign to one Salesforce campaign) when you need to see how each gift initiative is performing individually, including deliveries, claims, and influence on opportunities.
A hybrid approach, organized by initiative or team, is often a good middle ground.
If you'd rather use a broader reporting model — for example, a single "Gift Card" umbrella campaign — you can map several Reachdesk campaigns to one Salesforce campaign. Just keep in mind you'll lose visibility into how each individual initiative performs.
Use parent-child campaigns in Salesforce
If gifting supports a broader marketing motion (events, attendance, follow-ups, thank-yous), consider using a parent-child campaign structure in Salesforce to keep reporting organized.
Moving forward
To standardize future setup, consider creating dedicated Salesforce Campaign “types” (or an equivalent internal convention) for eGift campaigns and physical gift campaigns. Then reuse the same consistent statuses for every new campaign.
