This information will be stored as text, and user mapping can proceed without encountering any errors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, if the Salesforce State and Country Territory Picklist is enabled, and a user tries to map a salesperson to an existing user with an address indicating &#8220;CA&#8221; for the state and &#8220;US&#8221; for the country, while the integration value for the United States in the Salesforce State and Country Territory Picklist is designated as &#8220;USA,&#8221; an error will be presented to the user, as illustrated in the above image.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Solution<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>After enabling the Salesforce State and Country Territory Picklist, it is essential for the user to update the address information associated with the specific user as well.
