Promotion of D&B Prospects

When you promote a D&B prospect to a contact, promotion checks if a Siebel account with the same D-U-N-S number exists and the following actions occur:

• If a Siebel account exists with that D-U-N-S number, then the promotion proceeds according to the standard promotion process in Promotion of Prospects to Contacts. After the promotion, any other prospects from that same D&B account are removed from the list.
• If there is no Siebel account with that D-U-N-S number, then the application invokes the D&B account promotion, which then promotes the account and its associated contacts, industry information, and other information. For more information, see the D&B chapter in Siebel Applications Administration Guide.

NOTE:  List Management does not promote a prospect with an invalid D-U-N-S number. A D-U-N-S number is considered invalid if it is not contained in the D&B Accounts table.
