Snapshot of totals

Snapshot of totals

Hi,

I'm more familiar with Creator so it's taking me a while to wrap my headaround the CRM.

I've been asked to produce a metric that takes a snapshot total of ceratin fields everyday when they meet certain conditions : Total Average Value for example. In creator I would write a scheduled deluge script to save a record to a table and have it run everyday... how would I do something similar only in the CRM ?

                                                      Welcome back everyone! Last week's function was about automatically updating the recent Event date in the Accounts module. This week, it's going to be about automatically giving a custom Deal name whenever a lead is converted. Business scenario Deals are the most important records in CRM. After successful prospecting, the sales cycle is followed by deal creation, follow-up, and its subsequent closure. Being a critical function of your sales cycle, it's good to follow certain best practices. One such

                                                      Problem: We use quotes which convert to sales orders but Users / Sales Reps do not create opportunities / deals and go straight to creating a quote. This leads to poor reporting. Implementing this solution improves reporting and makes it easier for users.

We can automate this, using Custom Functions.

This week, it's going to be about scheduling calls for records in various modules. Business scenario Calls are an integral part of most sales routines.. Sales, Management, Support, all the branches of the business structure would work in cohesion only through calls.
