You must create and activate an activities configuration for each object you use in Digital Sales. You create an activities configuration by duplicating an existing one. Oracle provides a predefined configuration for each object. If you want to use the predefined configuration, just copy it and activate it. If you want to change what gets displayed in Activities for an object, you can edit your copy before activating it.

Navigator > Configuration > Configure Activities Display

See the topic: Create and Activate an Activities Configuration

2 Set the profile option Set the Common CRM Signals Active (ORA_ZCA_ENABLE_SIGNALS) to No. Setup and Maintenance > Sales > Sales Foundation > Manage Administrator Profile Values

See the topic: Set Profile Option Values

Run the Publish Feed Elements process to create the index required by Adaptive Search.

Don't select the Production to Test Enabled check box. This check box is used for migrating indexes from production to test instances.

You run this process only once.

4 Enable the natural English-language filtering of activities. Using this feature, a salesperson can enter "filter my tasks due tomorrow", to view all tasks due by the end of the next calendar day in their time zone where they are listed as a resource. Like all natural-language processing in Sales, this feature uses Oracle Digital Assistant (ODA) to process the text.
