Configuring relationship intelligence
Relationship intelligence helps to identify sales reps within the organization who have a better relationship strength with a particular contact. Engagement strength is defined based on relationship activities performed by the sales reps. Relationship activities are defined as emails, meetings, and phone calls. By default, the system dynamically calculates the relationship score for a given contact record based on their relationship activities over a period of time, which by default is 90 days.
- Enable relationship intelligence in App Studio.
For more information, see Enabling application features.
- Optional: To set a different time frame for retrieving relationship intelligence data, in the Latest interaction in days field, change the default 90 days to a different number of days.
- Enable the Microsoft Exchange integration to synchronize emails and appointments
because relationship intelligence uses emails and appointments as data
sources.
For more information, see Enabling application features.
- In the header of App Studio, launch the User portal.
- In the User portal navigation pane, click Tools, and
then click Relationship weights.
Note: Each activity category has weight by default, but you can adjust the importance of engagement activities by adjusting their relationship strength. Select a weight from 0 to 10 for each engagement type, with 10 being the highest (most important) weight. For example, assign 10 to email if it is the most important form of contact for an organization. You cannot add new categories. - To edit the weight for a category, click the Edit icon next to the activity category and enter a number between 1 and 10.

Using relationship intelligence
Relationship intelligence helps sales representatives to find a person in their internal organization that can help them make a warm introduction with a new external prospect or customer. Sales representatives can use the Relationships widget on the Insights screen to view a list of their contacts who have good relations with the contact with whom the sales representative wishes to establish a new relationship.
- Log into the application as either a Sales Ops, Sales Representative, or Sales Manager persona.
- In the User portal navigation pane, click Contact, and open any contact for which you want to view the relationship status.
- Expand the right navigation pane to see the details of the
Relationship tile and review the following lists of
relationships between the contact that you select and their contacts:
- The first relationship list is with currently logged in users.
- The remaining relationships lists are presented in an order calculated
by the system.
Note: To see recent activity, for example, how many emails or phone calls you exchanged with that person, hover over the relationship status bar next to each person. To send a prepopulated Pulse post or launch the New email screen, click the More icon, and then click either Pulse or Email. Relationship intelligence user actions
