New features bring more key Schwab Advisor Center data into Salesforce
We've incorporated some of your most requested features into our Salesforce application, minimizing the need to switch between Salesforce and Schwab Advisor Center while working in your account.
Here are some key highlights:
- Required minimum distribution (RMD). This feature adds 32 new fields to the Schwab account record, offering comprehensive information about your clients' RMD statuses and history. The data is automatically updated during the daily scheduled downloads, ensuring accurate, up-to-date insights.
- Account roles. A new custom account role is now linked to the Schwab account in Salesforce. You can easily view beneficiary account roles categorized by role type, name, and percentage. Data updates are automatically synchronized during the daily scheduled downloads.
- Standing authorization. This feature introduces a custom standing authorization object that you can view for each Schwab account in the Salesforce application. Updates to standing authorizations are made at the account level. You have the flexibility to retrieve this information on-demand using the Update Schwab Standing Instructions button or through the Real-Time Standing Instructions Update page element, which automatically retrieves the data each time the page is opened and refreshed.
- Single sign-on to move money. The new single sign-on (SSO) capability for money movements complements the existing SSO functionality for Account Details and Documents. Now you can easily access the move money tool on Schwab Advisor Center in a new window—while staying within the context of your original account—saving you time and reducing the likelihood of errors.
- Update balances page element. We've also introduced a page element for updating balances to ensure that you always have access to the latest figures. You can update balances on-demand, using the existing Update Balance button or the Real-Time Balance Update page element, which automatically updates balances each time you open Account Details or refresh the page.
To begin using these enhancements, please contract our service team at 888-400-5067. For more information, view the Schwab Advisor Center Integration for Salesforce user guide.

Sort clients by last name, firm-level cash information, and other expedited enhancements based on your feedback
As we continue to welcome new advisors to our platform, we are listening closely to feedback and quickly working to deploy key enhancements across Schwab Advisor Center. Here's a roundup of some of the latest updates we've launched based on your suggestions.
- Sort by primary account holder's last name. You can now sort by the last name of the primary account holder on the Balances and Profiles tabs to make it easier to quickly scan client accounts.
- Reduced white space on core pages. Updates to the Balances, Positions, and Profiles tabs reduce white space to allow more data to be displayed, improving readability and providing a more compact, operationally efficient view.
- Account selector updates. Changes to the Account Selector reflect the latest feedback from advisors, including improved compactness by displaying more accounts when the Short view is active, more recently accessed accounts available on the Recent list, and a new quick link to Group Manager to help maintain your groups.
- Enable access to firm-level cash in and out information. From the Dashboard tab, you can now download an export of recent deposits and withdrawals for the current and prior business day at either the firm or individual master account level. This enables you to look across your accounts for incoming deposits that need to be allocated or outgoing cash transactions to be aware of. Note that the module and corresponding export is available only for firms or master accounts with fewer than 1,000 subaccounts.
