Performing Retail Assessments

Retail assessments measure an account against a set of predefined attributes. Typically, you create the predefined attributes as assessment templates. The assessment template can help to determine the possibility of introducing a new product or measure the retail presence of a competitor.

For information about creating assessment templates, see the topic about setting up assessment templates in Siebel Applications Administration Guide.
