The CRM Zen Show Episode 195 – Zoholander: Mail Model

Zoho News

Implementation of the Week

  • Automated Project Generation via CRM Workflow and Custom Module
    • Oftentimes, we set up the CRM to auto-create Projects in specific Templates based on CRM Deal data
    • However, sometimes, the rules to select Templates are more complicated
    • In this case, the team built a custom module lining up Products with additional conditions per product (each Product could require a different Template, based on other Deal conditions)
    • On Deal update to Closed Won, related Products collected via function and compared to custom “Project Rules” module
    • Function runs in a pre-defined hierarchy to determine Project Template required

Code Share of the Week

  • Bulk Update Records in the CRM
    • Since Zoho now counts functions towards API calls, here is a way to be more conscious about the way your code is structured.
