Tracking Activities
Sales activities are the records of the sales calls and actions you perform as part of the sales process. Managing multiple prospects can be daunting unless you have the right tools to help you remember who did what and when. Being able to record these sales activities quickly and easily is what the Activities icons are all about. Throughout the sales process, you may need to record many contact events with the potential client. These events are recorded as Activities using the Action Center.
Activities are managed in the Action Center, under the Activities section. Counter badges display a count of the activities. Additionally, the Activities icons are helpful visuals to record Emails , Phone Calls , Follow Ups, and Notes . You can also View Full Search and View Summary.
