The names of source tables and fields can contain at most 79 characters.

You cannot configure a

replication

task with the same source and target objects. If the source and target connections are the same, you must enter a target prefix to distinguish the source and target objects.

You cannot replicate data to a Salesforce target.

You cannot configure multiple

replication

tasks to replicate the same source object to the same target object. For example, you cannot configure two

replication

tasks to write Salesforce Account data to the SF_ACCOUNT Oracle database table.

You cannot simultaneously run multiple

replication

tasks that write to the same target table.

When you configure a

replication

task to run on a schedule, include a repeat frequency to replicate the data at regular intervals.

The index is generated based on the Salesforce ID field. Indexes are not generated for Salesforce sources that do not include a Salesforce ID field.

You cannot simultaneously run

replication

tasks that replicate the same Salesforce object. If you simultaneously run two

replication

tasks that replicate the same object, the

replication

task that starts first obtains a lock on the Salesforce object, and the other

replication

task fails with the following error:

replication task failed to run. 
replication task name> is currently replicating the same objects.

If you configured the

replication

tasks to run on schedules, schedule the

replication

tasks to run at different times. If you run the

replication

tasks manually, wait until one completes before your run the other.

You can load data from Salesforce fields of any datatype, except binaries, into a flat file target.

There must be a time difference of at least 60 seconds between two consecutive runs of a

replication

task with incremental load.

To adjust the database target column when the data type, precision, or scale of a Salesforce source field changes, you can set the AutoAlterColumnType custom configuration property. Set this property for the Secure Agent that runs the replication task. In the Secure Agent properties, select the type as Tomcat and the subtype as INFO. Then, enter AutoAlterColumnType as the name and set its value to yes to turn on this property.
