Background
Organizational Roles and Responsibility Management:
In the context ofbusiness processes,for example sales,typically an organization’s
activities are organized underbusiness units, for example regions,divisions, etc. This
enables an organization to performactivities at lower (transactional)levels andanalyze
them at higher (summary) levels foreffectiveness.Figure 1 shows the organizational
model of Demo.Corp. Demo Corp. operatesunder three national offices. National sales
managers manage national offices. The US Sales national office is furtherorganizedinto
regions – Western Southern,and Midwest. These regions are responsible for the day-to-
day sales activity, performedby their sales representatives.The Canadianand Mexican
offices don’t have further breakdown into regions and directly overseethe activities of
sales representatives.

Figure 1.
The organizational chart/hierarchydiagram illustrates organizational hierarchy,roles
associated with the levels of hierarchyand actual people assigned to these levels. The leaf
nodes (lowest level) of hierarchyare transactional nodes. This is whereactual work takes
place. This is the vertical model of an organization. Later in the business cases on running
reports, signing-off, etc., we will see how the vertical model enables differentpeople at
different levels, view/perform different data/activities.
Organizational Process(Workflow) Management:
Below is asample organizational process(workflow) diagram:
The organizational processdiagram illustrates the horizontal model or flow of work (that
takes placeat the leaf nodes oforganizational hierarchy.)
Ohioedge CRM+BPMServer organization administrator is responsible for configuring
organization-specific vertical andhorizontal models.
Custom Fields:
To be completed.
Campaign Management:
In Ohioedge CRM+BPM Server, every activity a user performsbelongs to a campaign. A
campaign specifies the purpose ofoperation. A campaign may begeneric or specific; it
may be never ending or short-lived. For example, an organization could setup a ‘general
business’ campaign to performand track its day-to-day activities or setup a ‘send seasons
greetings’ campaign to send seasons greetings to the presidents of existing customers or
setup a ‘promotional offer’ campaign to email anew promotion to prospective customers.
A campaign is also how inputs (accounts,contacts, etc.) are assigned to accountmanagers.
The creation of a new activity is validated against the selection criteria of its campaign to
ensure that the input (accounts,contacts, etc.) is accessibleto the creator -accountmanager
for example. Here is the technical definition of such relationship: creatorshave access to
campaigns; and campaigns specify input selection criteria.Figure 3 shows how to createa
campaign.As seen in the figure,a campaign uses an input factory to select thedata
(company presidents for example) for which campaign is to run.Campaign is started from
Setup->Services. Ohioedge CRM+BPMServer organization administrator is responsible
for setting up input factories.
Assignment Management:
Lost sales due to poor follow up on leads is amajor sales obstacle. The most effective and
profitable wayto deal with this issue from a sales perspective is to do the following:
Route leads to the right sales repautomatically, eliminating delays and
Track the progressof leads through the sales pipeline in real time.
In Ohioedge CRM+BPM Server assignment of leads (tasks) to sales reps is done
automatically. This, in addition to the campaign management functionality that enables
accounts to beowned by account managers,facilitates multiple sales repsworking under
an account managerto receive specific input (leads, etc.) assignments.
Ohioedge CRM+BPMServer comes with an out-of-the-box assignment logic of ‘simple
random assignment.’ Below is how the ‘simple random assignment’ logic works:
Let’s say thereare two sales reps – A and B, available at the ‘Cold Call’ activity type. The
‘simple random assignment’ logic would assign the first unassigned activity at Cold Callto
sales rep A, the second to sales repB, the third to sales rep A, so on and so forth.Figure 4
shows how activities are assigned to Sales RepJ. Todak automatically (seeGunton Corp
customer record in the figure.)
Figure 4.
Creating an Activity:
Activity created by a campaign:
Say you havea campaign setup to call all the Presidents of theterritory with area code
‘216’ with a new promotional offer. Figure 5 shows a campaign NewPromo defined.
Figure 5.
When you run this campaign,the robot will automatically assign activities to the Sales Rep
responsible for the Canada Cold Calls.Figure 6 shows a report of the activities assigned to
the CanadaSales Rep.
Figure 6.
If you drill down on any activity, as shown in Figure7, you will see all thedetails of the
activity that needsto be performed.
Figure 7.
Note the Campaign name is the New Promo campaign, which indicates that New Promo
campaign createdthis activity.
Activity created manually:
An activity can be created manually by a mechanism that has the privilege to create an
activity. An activity can be created for a
1. Customer
2. Customer Person
3. Buyer
4. Customer Requirement
5. Other input you configure to flow through Ohioedge CRM+BPM Server.
