  7. Append _INACTIVE as suffix to the names of all inactive user properties.
  8. After you have activated all the user properties, make sure that the active user properties are sequential:
    1. Query in the user property Name field for all the following:
      • Alignment Join Path BC:TM Contact*
      • Alignment Join Path BC:TM Account*
      • Alignment Join Path BC:TM Opportunity*
      • Alignment Join Path BC:TM Asset*
      • Minor Operational Join Path BC:TM Account*

      • Minor Operational Join Path BC:TM Opportunity*
      • Minor Operational Join Path BC:TM Asset*
      • Operational Join Path BC:TM Account*
      • Operational Join Path BC:TM Contact*
      • Operational Join Path BC:TM Opportunity*
      • Operational Join Path BC:TM Asset*
    2. Make sure that active user properties in each of these query results are sequential, by numbering the result for each query beginning with 1 and continuing without missing any number.

    NOTE:  If you are using affiliations-based rules, such as Account-Contact-Postal Code, then along with activating user properties corresponding to Account-Contact-Postal Code, you must also activate user properties corresponding to the Account--Postal Code.

  5. Append _INACTIVE as suffix to the names of all inactive user properties.
  6. Renumber the user properties for active indirect territory rules in sequential order.

Inactivating Local Condition User Properties That Are Not Needed

Use the following procedure to inactivate local condition user properties that are not needed.

To inactivate local condition user properties that are not needed

  1. Identify which of the following types of local conditions are used in your implementation:
    • Local Conditions based on Territory
    • Local Conditions based on Division
    • Local Conditions based on Postal Codes
    • Local Conditions based on Postal Codes & Territory (in the same condition)
    • Local Conditions based on Geo Zones
    • Local Conditions based on Geo Zones & Territory (in the same condition)
    • No Local Conditions

      NOTE:  Identify all the possible conditions that might be used in the entire implementation.

  2. Query for Business Component = Alignment Condition.
  3. Inactivate user properties:
    1. Query for the following user property Name field:
      • Conditions Sort Spec*
      • Convert Conditions SearchSpec*
      • Person Candidate Source Names*
    2. For the result of each query, inactivate all user properties except the following:
      • Conditions Sort Spec 33
      • Conditions Sort Spec 34
      • Conditions Sort Spec 35
      • Convert Conditions SearchSpec 33
      • Convert Conditions SearchSpec 34
      • Convert Conditions SearchSpec 35
      • Person Candidate Source Names 33
      • Person Candidate Source Names 34
      • Person Candidate Source Names 35
  4. If you use local conditions based on territory, activate the user properties shown in the following table for the combinations of object, affiliation and rule that you are using in your implementation.

    NOTE:  If you are using affiliations based rules like Account-Contact-Postal Code, then along with activating user properties corresponding to Account-Contact-Postal Code, also activate the user properties corresponding to the Account-Postal Code.

Renumbering Active User Properties So They Are Sequential

After you have finished inactivating and modifying user properties for local conditions, you must renumber the user properties that remain active so they are sequential.

To renumber active user properties so they are sequential

  1. Make a list of active user properties in the format shown in the following table.
    Sequence Number
    User Property Set

    1

    Convert Conditions SearchSpec X
    Conditions Sort Spec X
    Person Candidate Source Names X

    2

    Convert Conditions SearchSpec Y
    Conditions Sort Spec Y
    Person Candidate Source Names Y

    3

    . . .

    4

    . . .

    n-2

    Convert Conditions SearchSpec 33
    Conditions Sort Spec 33
    Person Candidate Source Names 33

    n-1

    Convert Conditions SearchSpec 34
    Conditions Sort Spec 34
    Person Candidate Source Names 34

    n

    Convert Conditions SearchSpec 35
    Conditions Sort Spec 35
    Person Candidate Source Names 35

    NOTE:  User property sets 33, 34, and 35 must be the last three in table

  2. Renumber all the user properties in sequential order starting from 1, without any gaps, so the numbers of the user properties are the same as the numbers in the sequence column in your list. For example, renumber the user properties shown in the previous table as shown in the following table.
    Sequence Number
    User Property Set

    1

    Convert Conditions SearchSpec 1
    Conditions Sort Spec 1
    Person Candidate Source Names 1

    Convert Conditions SearchSpec 2

    Person Candidate Source Names 2

    Convert Conditions SearchSpec n-1

    Person Candidate Source Names n-1

    n

    Convert Conditions SearchSpec n
    Conditions Sort Spec n
    Person Candidate Source Names n

Modifying Business Components to Improve Performance

You can further improve performance by modifying business components to remove unneeded fields and joins.

To modify business components to improve performance

  1. Query for the Business Components listed in column 1 of the following table.
    Business Components
    (Column 1)
    Attribute
    (Column 2)
    Join
    (Column 3)
    Field
    (Column 4)

    [Name] LIKE TOS*Account AND [Name] NOT LIKE TOS*Ind*Account

    Industry

    S_ORG_INDUST

    Industry Id

    S_INDUST

    Industry

    TOS*Contact

    Last Call Date

    S_POSTN_CON

    Position Last Call Date

    Primary Speciality

    S_MED_SPEC

    Primary Specialty

    TOS*Opportunity

    Sales Stage

    S_STG

    Sales Stage

  2. If you are not using the corresponding attribute (shown in column 2) in any global condition in your implementation, then do the following:
    1. Inactivate the join (shown in column 3) in the corresponding Business Component
