Records synced from PCR will be given this Label automatically. In addition, applying the \u201cPCRecruiter\u201d Label to any existing Google Contact will make it part of the sync with PCRecruiter.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>To sync, a Record must be on both the designated Rollup as well as have the &#8220;PCRecruiter&#8221; Label in Google. Therefore:\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>If a record is removed from the selected Rollup in PCRecruiter, it will remain in Google Contacts but will no longer be synced.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>If the &#8220;PCRecruiter&#8221; label is removed from a record in Google Contacts, it will remain in PCRecruiter but will no longer be synced.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>PCRecruiter will avoid syncing records that have no email address or phone number data.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>If the optional \u201cSync Deletes in Google and PCRecruiter\u201d box was checked during setup, putting a synced record into PCR\u2019s Recycle Bin or moving a \u201cPCRecruiter\u201d labeled record in Google Contacts to the Trash will cause that record to be deleted from the other system as well.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Which Data Will Sync?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>When two records are Synced, any that edits made to the contact fields of that labeled Google Contact or selected PCRecruiter Name will be copied to the matching record in the other system. If changes have been made in both systems, the most recently updated record will refresh data in the other one.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The &#8216;Company&#8217; field on a Google Contact will be used for matching the synced record to an existing PCRecruiter organization record by exact-match of the Company Name. If the Company Name is not found in PCRecruiter, a new Company will be generated. If the &#8216;Company&#8217; is empty, the record will be added to your PCRecruiter database&#8217;s &#8220;Default&#8221; company record (i.e. the candidate pool).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Each bit of information on a Google Contact has a Field Label (e.g. You can give the &#8220;Home&#8221; Label to a phone number).&nbsp;When syncing Google Contacts into PCRecruiter, the Field Label in Google Contacts for Phone Numbers and Emails will determine which PCRecruiter Field that information goes to:\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The contact&#8217;s primary &#8220;Email Address&#8221; will be given the &#8220;Work&#8221; email label in Google.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Mobile, Work, Fax, and Home phone number fields from PCRecruiter will be labeled accordingly in Google.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Phone numbers or Emails stored in the additional PCRecruiter email\/phone fields (e.g. Email_Other, Email_Work, Phone_Spouse, Phone_Other) will be given field labels in Google to match.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Note that the &#8220;Work&#8221; Field Label in Google Contacts does&nbsp;<em>not<\/em> update any values in the PCRecruiter Name Record&#8217;s parent Company Record.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Phone numbers or emails stored in user-generated PCRecruiter Custom Fields will NOT be synced.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>PCRecruiter offers synchronization with Google Calendar and Contact lists.
