Running the data flows for opportunity insights
Run the data flows for opportunity insights to pass the incoming data to the adaptive models so that the system can calculate opportunity insights.
- In the Dev Studio header search text field, search for and select the StoreOpportunitySnapshots data flow.
- Click Actions > Run.
- On the form, click .
- After you see the confirmation message with a successful result, repeat steps 1 through 3 for the TrainFromHistory data flow.
Running the data flows for sales coach

- Click Actions > Run.
- On the form, click .
- After you see the confirmation message with a successful result, repeat steps 1 through 3 for the CaptureEffectivenessOutcomes data flow.
Optional: Running the data flows for lead ranking (B2B selling mode)
Run the data flows for lead ranking to pass the incoming data to the adaptive models so that the system can calculate the B2B lead scores.
- In the Dev Studio header search text field, search for and select the StoreLeadSnapshots data flow.
- Click Actions > Run.
- On the form, click .
- Repeat steps 1 through 3 for the CaptureLeadOutcomes data flow.
- To set up predictors and calculate lead score for already existing leads and store them in the lead predictor table, run the InitialiseLeadPredictorTable activity.
Optional: Running the data flows for lead ranking (B2C selling mode)
Run the data flows for lead ranking to pass the incoming data to the adaptive models so that the system can calculate the B2C lead scores.
- In the Dev Studio header search text field, search for and select the StoreIndividualLeadSnapshots data flow.
- Click Actions > Run.
- On the form, click .
- Repeat steps 1 through 3 for the CaptureIndividualLeadOutcomes data flow.
- To set up predictors and calculate lead score for already existing leads and store them in the lead predictor table, run the InitialiseLeadPredictorTable activity.
Enabling preloaded NBAs
- Set usePreloadedNBA dynamic system setting to true.
- Override the GenerateNBA job scheduler and set the Enable job scheduler toggle to true.To see the job scheduler changes instantly, run the LoadNBAForAllOpps dataflow.
- Optional: If your implementation layer has additional NBAs, add them by overriding the LoadNBAForAllOpps_Ext dataflow. Then, create declare triggers to track work item updates.
