Data Enrichment from email signatures

Note

This feature is available only in the Leads, Contacts or Accounts modules. Only the users who have permission to access these modules can use the feature.

Note

1. If you have already installed the "Data Enrichment" plugin in your CRM account, few global or company based information will be auto-populated from the internet. If required, you can overwrite those fields with the information retrieved from the email signature. You can instruct CRM to do so by selecting the checkbox of the respective fields under the Update tab.
   
   

1. You can use both the plugin and the email signature to enrich your CRM data. The former can enrich any global information on the record from the internet, while the latter can enrich personal information of a record.
   

Activity extraction from email

Emails often hold a lot more information than just a response or business conversation. Organizations can send invitations for webinars or send meeting links, share agendas or venue details, schedule calls or managers may assign tasks to their team members over emails. These information can be captured as activities in CRM for record keeping and proper follow-up. But adding these details manually can be time-consuming and may also introduce inadvertent errors while manually copying details from the emails. Zia's activity extraction from emails can help you to capture meetings, tasks, and calls automatically from an email. 

Zia can identify and pinpoint activities mentioned in emails and suggest the agent to add the activity to CRM from the email. They can edit the suggestion and enter more details or save the activity as it is. Zia's suggestions can be seen in the emails present in the related list of a record as well as in the SalesSignal.

Points to consider

1. In case multiple meetings are mentioned in the email, then the most distinct one will be captured by Zia. For example, if the email states a call at 9:00 am and a task at 4:00 pm, Zia will pick the 9:00 am call because its the first occurrence. 
   
2. The activities will be automatically tuned to the organization's business hour. For example, if the time and date mentioned by the customer in the email is 10:00 am PST, then the time will be converted to the organization's timezone. 
   
3. If a business hour or shift hour is not configured in an account, then the default time, that is, 9:00 am will be taken into account for all the activities.   
   
4. In cases where the time or date are mentioned in ranges like 3:00 to 3:30 pm or 20th to 22nd March, Zia will pick the first instance that is, 3:00 pm and 20th March. To ensure accuracy we recommend you to check the populated time and date before saving and edit it if needed.  
   
5. Zia will capture meetings/tasks/calls that are scheduled for future dates only. For example, if a meeting is scheduled for the same day then Zia will not pick the activity. 
   

1. Go to the Leads/Contacts/Deals or equivalent custom module and select a record.
   
2. In the email related list, open an email and click Capture Meeting/Schedule Call/Schedule Task.
   
   
3.  In the Activity Information popup, view the populated details of the meeting/task/call.
   If needed, edit the details.
   

What to expect in near future

We are constantly working to maximize Zia's capability to deliver the highest possible benefit to our customers. Here are a few things on our road map:

1. Capturing multiple activities from the email and marking them inside the body of the email. 
   
2. Activities extracted from emails will be suggested in a common place outside of emails, so that even if you miss the email you will not miss the activity.
   
3. Create a feedback loop based on edits made by the user on the suggestions and parse the model for increase accuracy. 
   
4. Train Zia with more industry specific keywords and improve its accuracy.
