Communications Glossary

Communication tags can be used
TermDescription
Communication

Communication refers Refers to any all interaction with a physical person or company through the CRM.COM software.

Communication tagsTagsUsed to generate the subject or the content of a communication Communication based on data kept on the related contact information Contact Information or referred business entities.

Communications Key Processes and Concepts

CRM.COM allows you to easily create communication templates, i.e., ready-made text with tags that will be automatically replaced with the values of the related business entities. In this way the user can select from the available templates
Processes / ConceptDescription
Communication Queue Usage and Communication Queue External Systems
  • Communication Queue and Communication Queue External Systems are used to process any communications that need to reach the customers in some way. i.e. via Email or SMS.
     
  • Communication Queue: Communications may have various forms; Face to Face, SMS, Email, phone, letter etc. If a communication is an Email or an SMS, then it will be added in the communication queue once created.
    Any communications in the queue will then be further processed, either by CRM.COM (if it is an Email or an SMS) or by an external system and only then it will be considered as Completed, i.e. send an Email or the SMS. Other types of Communications will never go in the queue.
     
  • Communication Queue External System: These are systems that are allowed to access and process information kept in the communication queue of CRM.COM
    If a communication is not going to be delivered to a customer via the SMS gateway or via the Email provider defined in CRM.COM, it can be processed by an external system as long as the system is defined as a Communication Queue External System. Conditional Access system or a CRM.COM portal are examples of such systems.
SMS Gateway and Email Provider Integration
  • As explained above, Communications may be sent directly via CRM.COM. This means that any communication that needs to be sent via Email or SMS and that is not going to be processed by an external system and is added in the queue it will be processed by CRM.COM. This is possible if the SMS Gateway integrated with CRM.COM is set up in the system. i.e., CM.
  • Email Provider settings also need to be set up in the system accordingly.
Communication Templates, Communication Tags and Auto-complete

Unrestricted Communication Tags

Tags which are not restricted to CRM.COM specific data (i.e. do not map to a CRM.COM entity). The tags are replaced by values specified by the User while creating or updating a Communication, when the value is repeated several times in a Communication or when the value is not a field saved in CRM.COM.

WYSIWYG Editor

"What You See Is What You Get" Editor is a utility that allows the user to view Content (e.g. an Email) as it will be displayed in a browser, in real time.
Opt-inContacts can opt-in, to receive marketing emails, either from your company or affiliate companies.
Opt-outContacts can opt-out so that they will never be sent marketing emails, either from your company or affiliate companies.
CM. GatewaySMS gateway used for sending SMS messages between SMS entities over HTTP.

Communications Key Processes and Concepts

Versus Notification Tags
Processes / ConceptDescription
Communication Queue Usage and Communication Queue External Systems

There are several forms of Communication, including of Face to Face, SMS, Email, phone and letter. Email and SMS Communications are added to a Queue from where they are assisted by other processes to reach their intended recipients. Further processing is either handled by CRM.COM (for Email and SMS) or by an external system.  External Systems access CRM.COM data through CRM.COM WEB APIs and process information kept in the CRM.COM Communication Queue as required.

View Using Communication Queue & Configuring Communication Queue External Systems for more information.

SMS Gateway and Email Provider Integration

Email and SMS Communications not processed by an external system can be handled directly through CRM.COM.
This is enabled by defining the SMS and/or Email Settings available in the Communication Definitions required for connecting to your email server or one of the SMS Gateways CRM.COM has integrated with.
