The other actions you can perform from this widget are dependent on your permissions. If you have permissions to approve new contacts and approve contact owners, then you will see the following for each of the different types:
Company - If you filter by company type, you will see a list of all of the requests from reps who want access to a specific company. The table will show the company name, the rep who requested access, any current reps, and when the request was made.
Contact - If you filter by contact creation type, you will see a list of all of the contacts reps have created who do not have permissions to approve contacts. This can be helpful to prevent duplicate contacts. The table will show the contact name, their email, the company name, the rep who made the request, and when the request was made.
Contact Ownership - If you filter by contact ownership type, you will see a list of all of the contacts reps have requested ownership of. The table will show the contact name, the company name, the rep who made the request, and when the request was made.
If you do not have the permissions to approve new contacts or approve contact ownership, then you will see either a list of the contacts you have requested ownership of or have created. This can still be helpful, however, as it takes your contact approval queue and displays it in your dashboard for easy access. For the company type, you do have the option to delete the request.
The Calendar Widget includes Team Activity functionality. You can now display activities for multiple reps at once, and can choose to show Daily Sales Activity on the widget. There is the option to show sales activity based on either contract or reporting/billing dates.
The Rep multi-select will display any users who Report To you, allowing you to view your whole team’s activity. If you choose to show more than one user in the widget, then the activities in the daily panel will show which user the activity is assigned to.
To show Daily Sales Activity, in the widget’s edit popup, select either Show Sales by Contract Date, or Show Sales by Reporting/Bill Date. When viewing your Calendar Widget, you will see a $ icon in the top right corner of each date that has a sale.
Note
When you use the Show Sales by Contract Date option, the sales will be displayed on the date the sale was made. When the Show Sales by Reporting/Bill Date setting is used, the sales will show up on the calendar based on the type of product sold. Print and digital ads will use the Issue’s Reporting Date, any digital media impressions or slots will show up based on their Start Run Date, and service and event products will show up on their Billing Date.
When the daily details panel is open on the right side of the widget, if there are sales for that date, the Daily Sales information will display at the top of the panel, above the user’s activities. Each date will show the number of line items sold by the rep(s) selected in the widget, and they will be broken out into the following categories: print ads, digital ads, impressions, slots, services, and events. There will also be a total for that date’s sales.
