Business Scenario for Contacts


This scenario shows a sequence of procedures performed by a call center manager (administrator) and call center agent (end user). Your company may follow a different sequence according to its business requirements.

A call center agent receives a call from a customer with a service problem. The agent verifies that the caller is already registered as a contact by using a query on the contact's name. The agent adds information to the customer's contact profile and provides the needed service by creating a trouble ticket without leaving the Contacts screen. The agent then logs the activity. During the call, the customer states an interest in purchasing a particular product, so the agent associates an opportunity with the contact. After the call, the agent sends a follow-up email to the customer to verify that the action was taken.

Figure 6 shows the sequence of procedures that an end user might follow to manage contacts.
