摘要:
CRM application controls and functionality for multiple CRM applications/instances are integrated with an ECS application user interface by designating a single CRM application/instance as primary and providing synchronization and rich client control capabilities. Other CRM applications/instances are set up as secondary within the ECS user interface employing a single CRM connection module and a single state manager. Accessing a secondary CRM application/instance activates relevant controls applicable to that CRM application/instance without a user having to logout and login to the ECS client.

Concepts and technologies are described herein for collecting and displaying information. A client device executes one or more application programs for providing operations with respect to entity-related data that relates to one or more entities. The application programs analyze the entity-related data to identify one or more entities associated with the entity-related data and transmit entity information relating to the entities to a server or database. Information relating to the entity is retrieved from the server or database and is presented to a user of the client device.

Determining a policy parameter for an entity of a supply chain includes establishing attributes of the entities of the supply chain. Attribute segments are established for each attribute, where an attribute segment includes one or more values of the corresponding attribute. Rules are formulated using the attribute segments to define policy groups, and policy parameters are assigned to each policy group. A policy group corresponding to an entity is identified in accordance with the rules. The policy parameters assigned to the identified policy group are determined and selected for the entity.

Synchronization between Communications and Scheduling (CS) service and customer relationship management (CRM) applications is facilitated through a synchronization module on the CS service side using Extensible Markup Language (XML) formatted storage for keeping track of synchronization states. The CRM server version of an item is compared with the XML formatted storage to detect changes and the same performed for the CS service item. The updates are stored in a CS service item or transmitted to the CRM application for application to a corresponding CRM item. Last updated item is selected in case of a conflict.

An automated contact import module enables users to select groups of contacts to import from an email, contact management, scheduling (ECS) application based on viewing contacts by category, organization, email domain, and similar attributes. Contacts in selected groups are imported to a CRM application with automatic data mapping. Communication history may be part of the import process by searching previously indexed emails, appointments, and comparable data associated with the selected contacts effectively creating a data hierarchy at the CRM application.
摘要:
A system and method supporting an enhanced customer relationship management uses all system entities across all stages of a workflow to reduce or eliminate redundant data entry and allow creation of front-to-back workflows, e.g. lead-to-cash. Access to all levels of data allows customer service representatives to have access to previously inaccessible data, thus allowing better decision making at the point of contact. Use of an advanced query language used in report generation is re-used for setting the scope of workflow activities, so that complex criteria can be easily specified to have an activity run only when the specified criteria are met.
摘要:
A customer relationship management (CRM) system utilizes a form definition, user interface (UI) definitions, and UI code to generate Web pages for interacting with CRM data. A CRM plug-in is configured to execute in conjunction with a personal information manager (PIM) client application and to utilize the same form definition, UI definitions, and UI code utilized by the CRM system to generate the Web-based CRM interface. The UI definitions are utilized to present UI controls for performing CRM-related functionality in the context of a UI generated by the PIM client application. The UI code utilized by the CRM system to implement Web-based UI controls can be utilized to implement the UI controls in the context of the PIM client application. The form definition utilized by the CRM system might be utilized to display CRM fields in the UI presented by the PIM client application.

摘要:
Synchronization between email, contact management, scheduling (ECS) and customer relationship management (CRM) applications is facilitated through a synchronization module on the ECS side using an Extensible Markup Language (XML) file for keeping track of synchronization states. The CRM server version of an item is compared with the XML file to detect changes and the same performed for the ECS item. The changes are then pushed to the corresponding item for the columns that have changed. Last updated item is selected in case of a conflict.
