The PowerCenter Integration Service can extract data from Salesforce source definitions. You can import one or more source definitions for each Salesforce object. If you import multiple source definitions for the same Salesforce object, you must provide unique names for the source definitions. If you do not provide unique names, the Designer requires you to resolve the conflict.

When the PowerCenter Integration Service extracts data from a Salesforce source, it converts the data based on the datatypes in the Application Source Qualifier associated with the source.
