System-generated communications are multi-channel, currently supporting Email, SMS, and in-app Push Notifications.

Service Requests

Service requests can be submitted by a back-office user or directly by a contact via self-service APIs (e.g., CRM.COM app or portal).

A service request always belongs to a Queue. A Queue is a CRM.COM user-defined grouping method that is used to group similar service requests (e.g., reward or billing requests)

Activities

A lead belongs to a queue, usually representing a Sales Force Automation model with predefined stages.

A lead always ends up being won or lost.

Wallet

• An EMI-grade multi-currency wallet maintaining an open balance per currency and multiple commerce pool balances for a customer of a business

• The multi-business wallet allows customers to link their existing wallet to a new business they sign up for. Business still maintains full ownership and control of the business balances.

Passes

A pass is a process that unlocks a gift, top-up or promotion for a contact.

When a pass is redeemed (unlocked), it will either credit money into the contact wallet or activate an instant discount because of an associated offer.

A pass can be either printed or in electronic format (distribution methods).

Accounts

An account is a ledger of financial transactions carried out between the Business and its contacts or the Business and its merchants/service providers. Account basic features are id, classification, credit term (credit limit, payment terms), currency, primary, and state.

Payment Methods

Payment methods are the acceptable means by which a business can collect money from its contacts to pay for products or services purchased from the Business.

Rewards & Digital Offers

Rewards within CRM.COM apply digital offers against a customer event or a CRM.COM-initiated process such as subscription maturity. Rewards award contacts a commerce credit in the CRM.COM wallet.

A key Rewards process is the Redeem, which evaluates the purchase event against the existing commerce balance and converts it to an open balance.

Product Catalogue

The product catalogue consists of the list of products a business sells, their prices, and promotions applied to purchasing these products.

A key product attribute is the organisation that owns the Product, which can be the Business or a merchant/service provider. The organisation that owns the Product will also manage it and price it.

Order Management

Orders placed by contacts (B2C/B2B contacts) to purchase physical goods and services offered by the Business or the Business's merchants in its business network

An Order is fulfilled by either the Business or one of the merchants/venues (Delivery, Pick Up, Direct Sale)

An Order follows a Queue that defines its :

• The sequence of stages that the order goes through until its completion

• The point of no return

• Milestone invoicing in one or more stages

Subscriptions & Usage

A subscription is a collection of services a Contact subscribes to, billed for regularly. Apart from the services provided, the subscription outlines how and when the Contact will be billed and the payment terms. Generally, a subscription's main characteristics are State, Billing day, and Payment method.

A usage service is any service consumed and has to be billed based on the volume consumed, like data, phone calls, fuel, and electricity. A usage service has a measurement unit for measuring the consumed volume and a price per measurement unit. A usage service can only be consumed when a contact subscribes to a termed or one-time service.

Inventory (including devices)

• Stackable items are the physical goods for which stock levels are maintained. Only physical goods (traceable or not) can be marked as stackable in their product types.
