Understanding the 360-Degree View
This topic discusses:
360-degree views.
360-degree view toolbar.
360-degree views provide a summary view of overall activity for a business object—a customer, contact, or worker. From a 360-degree view, you can review or initiate transactions, record interactions and subinteractions, view relationships, and view tasks for the business object.
A 360-Degree View page includes these page regions:
Region |
Details |
---|---|
Role |
This drop-down field lists the roles that are associated with the business object whose information appears on the page. You can select a role to filter data and transactions so that only those that pertain to that role appear in the view. |
Actions |
This field lists the transactions that are defined for the 360-Degree view page. Select the transaction to perform the associated actions or to transfer to the page that performs the desired actions. Transactions populate relevant fields on the transaction page from the data that is identified on the 360–Degree View page. See Configuring Actions and Transactions for the 360-Degree View. |
Summary |
Information such as name, contact information, and customer value appears here. The Summary page region can include up to two buttons that transfer to components that contain more information about the business object. Depending on the 360-Degree View profile configuration, users may be able to modify the person's or company's phone and email data in the CRM database from this section (note that this is not available for all 360-Degree Views, such as those for HR HelpDesk). |
Activities |
Activities appear in a tree format that contains a record of all transactions, interactions, and subinteractions that involve the business object. Transactions are grouped under nodes. Select a node to view, add, modify, or search for a transaction. The specific nodes that appear on the Activities tree vary depending on the business object and role that you select. Interactions are grouped by date. |
Date Filter |
This field enables you to select a date range that controls which transactions appear in the tree. |
<activity> Detail |
The information that appears in this area changes depending on which node you select in the activities tree. Summary information about the transactions that are under the node that you select in the 360-Degree view tree appears in this grid. When you first access the 360-Degree View page, the system displays information that is controlled by the default setting that is specified for the page. |
Log Interaction |
Using this group box, you can capture interaction details, record the callback date and time, attach notes to the interaction, and send an email to the customer or internal personnel (if the email address is set up). |
Current Actions |
This area lists all the transactions that occur during the current interaction or current 360–degree view session. |
Relationship Viewer |
All of the business object relationships for the customer are accessible from this page. |
Tasks |
This page lists all the tasks that pertain to the business object. You can drill down to view the task detail. |
Call Reports |
This page lists all the call reports that pertain to the business object. You can drill down to view the call report detail. |
The specific information that you see on a 360-Degree View page varies depending on whether you are viewing a customer, contact, site, or worker.
The system records all interactions with the business object and displays them in the Activities section of the 360-Degree View page. An interaction can contain multiple subinteractions. For example, a call with a customer might involve a case being updated, a service order being added, and a note about the customer. All of these subinteractions are logged under the same interaction.
The specific activities and transactions that appear in the Activity Tree page region and Actions drop down box differ depending upon which 360-degree view you access.
You can utilize these types of 360-degree views:
Customer
Customer 360-Degree View is used to manage transactions and activities that relate to customers, sites, and contacts of customers.
Worker
Worker 360-Degree View is used to manage cases and interactions for workers who call the help desk for support.
Constituent
Constituent 360-Degree View is used when integrating with PeopleSoft Campus Solutions to manage cases and activities for individuals who call the service center. In addition to the sections that appear on all 360-degree views, Constituent 360-Degree View includes display-only information about the individual's academic information, if applicable, including checklists, communication, and comments; recruiting; admissions; transfer credits; academics; finances; financial aid; transcript requests; contributor relations; and affiliations.

Three trees are delivered for higher education. Information Technology (IT) related issues are shown in the Higher Education IT Tree while the Higher Education Support Tree is designed to show non-IT related issues. The Higher Education Blended Tree shows both IT and non-IT related issues. The Configure Role page is used to associate a tree with a particular role
Worker and Person of Interest (POI)
HRHD 360-Degree View is used to initiate transactions and manage activities that relate to the HR data for workers or persons of interest. In addition to the sections that appear on all 360-degree views, the HRHD 360-degree view includes information about the worker's job and position, payroll information, and benefits. It also supports the viewing of information for POIs.
HRHD 360-Degree View provides security that is based on section-level information only. There is no field-level security. For example, if an agent has access to information for one job and not the other, or the agent only has access to part of the information, the system still retrieves all job information. This enables a true 360-degree view of an employee.

Toolbars are configurable and customizable. In addition, you can give end-users the ability to personalize their own toolbar.
