AccountsDefinition: Accounts are companies that interact with NOSA. Microsoft Dynamics CRM allows for storing of companies that deal with NOSA such as customers, suppliers, competitors and partners etc. Microsoft Dynamics CRM also allows for a hierarchical structure of accounts where accounts can be linked to a parent account. In the parent account there will be a list of sub-accounts.
Press “ESC” to exit
Required
Tip: Capture as much information as possible about accounts so that you can categorize and group customers on similar characteristics – this helps you identify cross- and up-sell possibilities later on
Contacts
Press “ESC” to exit
Required
Definition: Contacts are people that interact with NOSA. Contacts can be linked to accounts if they work for a particular company, and can also be used as customer records instead of accounts if you are dealing with an individual.
Tip: Capture as much information as possible about contacts so that you can get to know them better and have a deeper and more meaningful conversation with them
Leads
Press “ESC” to exit
Required
Required
Required
Definition: A lead record represents an unqualified suspect that has never done business before with NOSA. Included in the sales process is the orientation phase which will be managed through the use of leads in Microsoft Dynamics CRM. After going through the orientation phase the lead will be then converted to an account, contact and opportunity record.
Tip: Anything you capture on the Lead form will convert to the Account, Contact and Opportunity, so the more you capture now, the less admin you will do later
Tip: Make sure you capture the source of the lead, so that you can pull reports later to show you the most effective source of marketing and sales generation
Opportunities
Press “ESC” to exit
Required
Definition: Opportunities (deals) will record and track sales for new business and existing customers. Opportunities will be used to manage the sales pipeline and will also contain the attached documents created for the potential sale. The sales pipeline will reflect the phases shown in the sales process. All sales activity (email, phone calls, appointments etc.) will also be tracked to the opportunity record.
Tip: Opportunities in CRM capture all the detail related to the deal – the type of sale, Pipeline Phase, Business Sector, and all of the product and Pricing related information, so make sure your deal is loaded correctlyTip: The sales process helps you to know where you are in a deal, so that you know what to do next. In this example, the next step is to drive towards the Investigation step, once Orientation is complete

Goals
Press “ESC” to exit
Required
Definition: Microsoft Dynamics CRM allows for tracking of sales targets through the use of goals. Goals for NOSA will be measured on quote products that are commissionable. Targets can be set for a specific period and can also roll up into a parent goal.
Tip: Goals / targets are designed to help sales people stay on top of their sales activity, making sure they have sold enough on a monthly basis to meet target

Quotes
Press “ESC” to exit
Definition: Interests will be implemented as a catalogue which will be configurable. The idea is that interests will not be recorded outside of a portfolio of interests which can be leveraged by NOSA. For example, if NOSA has a box-suite at a Rugby stadium, then Rugby would be added to the interest’s catalogue. Similarly, if customers are invited to play golf, then golf would be added to the interest’s catalogue. The purpose of the interest’s catalogue is to enhance data in a useful way.

Definition: Equipment for NOSA will keep track of all equipment sold to customers. Historical information such as invoice numbers and invoice dates will be recorded and easily accessible by users. Equipment will also be linked to the models that were defined during the sales process.
Tip: Make sure you capture as much information as possible regarding equipment on each customer’s site so that you can see who is up for contract renewal, and which machines might need a service, repair or replacement

Definition: Equipment types for NOSA will be used to classify the types of products that are sold to customers. The list will be defined as shown below, and can be added to in the future as new products are added to NOSA’s product offering. Equipment types will be associated with opportunity records in Microsoft Dynamics CRM so that sales per equipment type can be reported against.
Required
Product Management
Press “ESC” to exit
Definition: Products will be used in Microsoft Dynamics CRM. Products are managed in the sales section and are associated with a price list and a price list item. Nosa will be using a default price list which will include all their products. Products will be managed through the use of default Microsoft Dynamics CRM functionality and templates will be provided by Enterprisecloud to allow for additional bulk imports in the future. Products, in the case of Nosa, will be added to quote records as quote products. This will allow for centralized management of product pricing and quote generation.
Wherever possible, the use of write-in products will be avoided. Users, however, will not be restricted from using write-in products where needed. For new products that are not available on the existing price list in Microsoft Dynamics CRM, users will need to request that their super user add the product and price list item with the authorized price. Prices also can be overridden at the quote level if required. The sales person will be able to fill in the price before the quote is approved.

Users
Press “ESC” to exit
Definition: Users are people that have licenses to access Microsoft Dynamics CRM. Users will have information stored about the individual such as manager, territory, contact information, and commission percentage. Nosa will only edit the user record to set the commission percentage level for sales people. This will be managed by using field-level security which will only allow management to see and edit the field for sales people. Shown below are the custom fields that will be added to the user record to cater for commission percentage.

Attachments
Press “ESC” to exit
Definition: Attachments can be associated with all records in Microsoft Dynamics CRM. Any attachment such as a PDF document or Microsoft Excel spread sheet can be uploaded to a record as an attachment. Attachments will appear in the notes section on the form of each record that has notes enabled.

Process Explanation: The Prospect phase is as follows:1. A lead source (i.e. website, advertising, cold calling) will result in the creation of a new
queue item in Microsoft Dynamics CRM.2. The queue item will be converted into a lead record. The lead record will initially be
assigned to the regional manager and then onto the sales person. 3. The sales person will make initial contact and information will be gathered for the lead
record:a. If there is sufficient information for the lead, the record will move to the qualify phase. b. If the information is insufficient, the lead will need to be contacted and the lead record
updated before it can move to the qualify phase.4. The lead record will be pre-qualified in this phase. If the lead shows no interest, cannot be
contacted, or there is no potential for a sale, the lead record will be disqualified.If the lead is created manually by the salesperson and has not been received via the
[email protected] queue, the New Queue Item process shown above will be skipped as this is not applicable.
Disqualification:If the prospect phase is terminated, leads can be disqualified based on the following default
reasons:• Lost• Cannot Contact• No Longer Interested • Cancelled

Press “ESC” to exit

Process: The Diagnosis phase will serve to determine what effort will be required for the sale. The potential customer will either be quoted directly or a meeting will be held before the quoting process can begin.
Process Explanation: The Diagnosis phase is as follows:
1. If the potential customer wishes to be quoted directly then the sales person will be able to move straight to the quoting phase and generate the quote.
2. If the potential customer does not wish to be quoted directly then a client meeting will be scheduled to discuss what their requirements are.
a. If the outcome of the meeting results in the potential customer asking for a quote then the sales person will move to the quoting phase to begin generating the quote.
b. If the potential customer is not going to be quoted, the process will terminate with the opportunity record being closed as lost. A reason for losing the deal will need to be completed by the sales person, and if the deal was lost to a competitor, a competitor record can be linked to the lost opportunity.Previous
