SECURITY REQUIREMENTS You may need to add InsideSales IP addresses to the list of trusted IP addresses within Salesforce. Some companies enable security settings within Salesforce that require a user accessing Salesforce from an unknown IP address to first authenticate to be able to gain access. InsideSales connects to the Salesforce instance using the individual marked as the Access User in InsideSales. Within Salesforce, the InsideSales IP addresses must be added to the trusted IP ranges for the access user to perform actions. 1. Go to Setup in Salesforce 2. Click Security Controls 3. Click Network Access 13

Notes
PowerDialer for Salesforce Specifications Phone System Requirement PHONE SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS The InsideSales product suite requires a DID (Direct Inward Dialing, also known as a Direct Inbound Number). DIDs connect directly to the sales rep instead of requiring an extension or phone menu. InsideSales.com does not provide DIDs. Direct SIP integrations are not available.
Configuration
Supported

*Some phone providers experience call quality issues that InsideSales.com cannot troubleshoot. Customers experiencing call quality problems are encouraged to use an on-premise PBX.
NOTE – When reps place calls using InsideSales, the InsideSales system calls the rep first (called connecting the agent leg) and then when the rep answers the InsideSales system calls out to the prospect. This means that to a PBX system, all call traffic is considered inbound calls. It is essential that your inbound call concurrency level can support an open inbound call connection for all reps.

PowerDialer for Salesforce Specifications PHONE NUMBER FORMATTING REQUIREMENTS InsideSales’ telephony tools allow reps to place calls from virtually anywhere in the world. You must format your numbers correctly and consistently before placing calls, otherwise the InsideSales system will be unable to place calls. Strict adherence to the E.164 phone number format standard must be followed. NOTE – Salesforce does not enforce phone number format standards. Salesforce administrators are strongly encouraged to create validation rules that enforce E.164 standards.
E.164 STANDARD All phone numbers saved in Salesforce for both the reps’ phone number and prospect phone numbers must adhere to the E.164 standard. This standard allows numbers to be formatted for all calling scenarios, including local and international calls placed to and from any country. There are two components to E.164 formatted numbers:
Plus Symbol: The E.164 standard simply replaces the country-specific Exit Code with the plus symbol (+). The InsideSales system will add the exit code (for example, the US exit code is 011) if it encounters an international entrance code. Country Code & Local Number: Add the rest of the number, including the Country Code.
For example, if a record or rep is located in the United Kingdom, the phone number entered into the system would be: +44-481958104
TRUNK CODES Trunk codes should not be saved with any phone number. If a phone number has a trunk code in it, the phone call will not be successfully placed. NOTE – The PowerDialer application will not dial emergency numbers. If an agent attempts to dial an emergency number, the system returns an error stating that the number is not valid.

PowerDialer for Salesforce Specifications Network Requirements NETWORK CONFIGURATION InsideSales services are delivered as a Software-as-a-service model, requiring an active internet connection. Due to the need for quick interactions, InsideSales utilizes web socket technology. You must allow InsideSales connections through network firewall systems.
Item
Notes Websocket traffic requires port 80 enabled.
Websocket Ports
Outbound TCP Traffic
19
NOTE – We do SSL on port 80. You must enable the SSL protocol for port 80 on any firewalls that perform deep packet inspections (for example, Cisco or Palo Alto firewalls). Requires ports 9900-9999 opened.

PowerDialer for Salesforce Specifications Supported Locales The InsideSales Salesforce PowerDialer integration supports reps located within the United States and Europe. All calls will originate from either the U.S. or EU telephony centers depending on the sales rep location. The InsideSales product is only available in U.S. English, and it is not localized for any other languages or locations.

LIGHTNING UI LIMITATION The initial release of the Lightning Experience does not support any telephony tools from any vendor. Implementing the optional Lightning Experience will make the InsideSales PowerDialer application unusable. Therefore, at this time we do not recommend implementing the Lightning Experience. In the meantime, we recommend continuing to use the current user experience.
LIGHTNING TELEPHONY SUPPORT COMING SOON The InsideSales application uses Salesforce Open CTI telephony technology (the telephone technology we use to connect reps to customers). Salesforce plans on adding Open CTI support to the Lightning Experience in the Summer '16 release.
TURNING OFF LIGHTNING If you have implemented the new Lightning Experience, you can easily disable it. Please see this comprehensive information on the Lightning Experience, including how to enable and disable it: Enabling Lightning Experience.

Inbound Call Configuration Inbound Call Paths CALL PATH OVERVIEW Call Path technology manages inbound calls coming into the InsideSales system. Call Paths define how inbound calls are routed and handled, from playing messages to inbound callers, to routing the inbound calls to reps waiting to take inbound calls. System administrators can assign multiple inbound numbers and LocalPresence buckets to a Call Path. Anytime a prospect calls an inbound number assigned to a Call Path, the Call Path routes the call.
PACKAGES Accelerate Elevate Communicate
LIMITATIONS US Only
CREATING CALL PATHS Call Paths are typically only available to managers or administrators of the InsideSales system. 1. Click the InsideSales tab. 2. Click Manage Call Paths. 3. Click Edit next to the desired Call Path or click Create New Call Path. 4. Save the Call Path.
CALL PATH CANVAS The Call Path editor uses a grid-canvas to generate the easy-to-use visual flow of how inbound calls are routed. Inbound Routing Objects are dragged from the available options bar and released on the Canvas. 1. Edit or Create a Call Path. 2. Drag an Inbound Routing Object to the canvas and release.
27

Inbound Call Configuration 3. Save the Call Path. NOTE – InsideSales only supports 10 Inbound Routing Objects per Call Path.
28

Inbound Call Configuration Connecting Objects To connect one inbound routing object to another, place your mouse over an object on the canvas and look for the Connect box to appear. Once the Connect box appears, click and drag from the Connect box to another object on the canvas, then release. To remove the connection between two objects on the Call Path canvas, click on the blue connecting arrow and verify the action. NOTE – InsideSales does not support creating Call Paths that are circular – where an inbound call returns to earlier points in the Call Path. Each Call Path is limited to a total of 4 branches.
SAVING CALL PATHS
When you are ready to save a Call Path, click the Save button and leave the editor.
Alternatively, pressing Quick Save saves the current changes but keeps you in the editor- allowing you to continue to make changes.
29
Use the Save As function to clone a Call Path.
To discard all unsaved changes, click the Cancel button.

Inbound Call Configuration Call Path Terminators CALL PATH TERMINATORS OVERVIEW In the event that an inbound call is not answered by a rep, the call must go somewhere. The InsideSales system is not designed to allow a call to remain in a Call Path indefinitely. Each branch within a Call Path must end in a terminator. A terminator is a routing object that causes the inbound call to leave the InsideSales system. The following routing objects are considered terminators:
Disconnect
Forward
Path Bridge
SEE ALSO Disconnect Forward Path Bridge
NOTE – If a Call Path branch does not end in a terminator, the InsideSales system will automatically disconnect an inbound call when it reaches the end of the branch. As a best practice, we recommend always placing a terminator at the end of your branches.
CONFIGURE CALL PATHS Call Paths are configured using a drag-and-drop interface, making it easy to create and visualize how inbound calls are going to be handled. To create a Call Path, click Create Call Path and then simply drag routing objects onto the Call Path canvas. Connect each routing object together by clicking and dragging the arrow from one object to another. To assign inbound numbers to a Call Path, click on the Properties button while editing a Call Path.

Inbound Call Configuration CALL PATH PROPERTIES: Setting
Description
Call Path Name
Uniquely identifies the Call Path for reporting purposes.
Inbound Number
All selected inbound numbers or LocalPresence buckets are displayed in this field. To add a new inbound number, search for the number and select the number. Only numbers that are not assigned to other Call Paths or directly to reps are displayed in this field.
DELETING CALL PATHS A Call Path can be deleted from the system by navigating to the Manage Call Paths page and clicking Delete next to the desired Call Path. 1. Navigate to the InsideSales tab. 2. Click Manage Call Paths. 3. Click Delete next to a Call Path. 4. Verify the delete action. NOTE – When you delete a Call Path, all inbound numbers become unassigned from Call Paths. This means that if a prospect calls one of these numbers, the call won’t be routed to reps. We strongly recommend you immediately assign unassigned numbers when a Call Path is deleted.

Inbound Call Configuration Call Logging - Inbound INBOUND CALL LOGGING OVERVIEW The moment an inbound call reaches a Call Path, InsideSales starts recording information about that call. All call data that InsideSales captures is made available directly within Salesforce using the standard Salesforce Task Object. Using the call details provided by InsideSales, you can report on how many inbound calls are your team is taking, how many inbound calls are being missed, and more. All reports can be run using the native Salesforce reporting tool or brought into Salesforce Analytics Cloud.

SEE ALSO Call Paths Terminators Inbound Reporting
CONFIGURE INBOUND CALL LOGGING When an inbound call comes into the system, InsideSales automatically starts logging the call data. There are no configurations that you need to make to be able to log inbound calls.
INBOUND CALL LOGGING PROCESS When an inbound call reaches a Call Path, InsideSales begins recording call data about the call. 15 to 30 minutes after an inbound call ends, InsideSales creates a task within Salesforce that contains information about the call. If an inbound call is answered by a rep, the task that is created is assigned to that individual rep. In the event that a call is not answered by a rep, the owner of the call

Inbound Call Configuration task is the individual set as the default owner on the Rep Queue within the Call Path.
NOTE – If a call is answered or missed, InsideSales creates a call task within Salesforce. Any call that is sent to a terminator such as Call Forward, but is actually answered by a rep, will still be marked as a missed call.
INBOUND CALL TASK DATA InsideSales provides a number of different data points around each inbound call that reaches the system. All fields outlined below are populated when inbound calls reach InsideSales. InsideSales utilizes managed custom fields included with the package along with standard Salesforce fields to record call data.

Inbound Call Configuration Rep Queue – Inbound Option REP QUEUE OVERVIEW The Rep Queue is the inbound routing option that is used to route inbound calls or ResponsePops to reps to be answered. A Rep Queue is analogous to the frequently used term Automated Call Distributor (ACD), in that it uses defined logic to find available reps and route calls to them in a specific order. Rep Queues are a routing option contained within a Call Path. All calls that enter a rep queue are logged into Salesforce as call tasks for reporting purposes.

For example, if Lead is selected, InsideSales will search the Lead object for inbound call recorded matches based on the primary phone field. Leads, Accounts, Contacts are available. The more objects added, the slower the call will route as InsideSales must first look up the record prior to routing.

Inbound Call Configuration LONGEST AVAILABLE Longest Available routing looks at the length of time reps have been marked as Available in the inbound system. The inbound call or ResponsePop then routes to the rep with the highest available time. If an inbound call is routed to a rep, and they take no action to accept or ignore the inbound call, the call is then routed to the rep with the next highest available time. The rep who did not take an action is then set to unavailable for inbound automatically. If a call is routed to a rep, and they manually click the Ignore button, the inbound call is routed to the next rep but the rep keeps their inbound status. Longest Available rewards reps who diligently maintain their available status and remain at their desks ready to take inbound calls. Longest Available is the most commonly used, and recommended routing option used by InsideSales clients.
GROUP RING When an inbound call reaches a Rep Queue set to Group Ring, the call is routed to all reps currently marked as available who are invited to the rep queue. When the call is routed, each rep will see an option to Accept or Ignore the call. The first rep to click Accept is given the call, and all other reps are given a notification that someone else answered. When a call is routed to a rep part of a Group Ring Rep Queue, and the rep missed the call, they are not set to unavailable. If a rep takes an inbound call, then they will be set to Unavailable. Group Ring is focused on speed, and disregards all fairness with routing calls. Each rep has an equal chance at taking the inbound call, regardless of how many other inbound calls they have taken or the last time that they took a call. NOTE – Group Ring only answers reps who are currently available. If an inbound call is ringing all reps and a new rep becomes available, the call will not be presented to them.
45
© 2016 InsideSales.com
Inbound Call Configuration MOST READY Most Ready routing is useful if outbound calls are substantially less important than inbound calls and routing fairness is not a major concern. When an inbound call reaches the rep queue, calls are routed in the following order: 1. The rep who has been available the longest AND has the agent leg connected gets priority so long as they are not on an active call. 2. Reps who are not connected to any phone calls 3. Reps who are connected on active phone calls. NOTE – If a rep misses an inbound call that was routed to them via Most Ready, they will be set to unavailable.
ROUND ROBIN We recommend Round Robin when fairness is the primary concern, and speed to answer is not as important. When a call reaches a rep queue set to Round Robin, the system routes the inbound call to the rep marked as available who has not taken an inbound call from the Rep Queue for the longest amount of time. Admins can clear out the length of time a rep has not taken an inbound call, for example: a rep who goes on vacation for two weeks is not put at the top of the queue when they return from vacation. The Last Call Time is cleared out based on the Round Robin Reset Interval. On this interval, the Last Call Time is cleared out for all reps to establish a fair reset. SEE ALSO Routing Types Video

This is frequently used when an inbound caller reaches a menu that presents the option to go to Sales or Support. If the caller presses 2, the call is sent to the Support Call Path. Rather than re-create the Support Call Path, simply use the Path Bridge to send the caller to the Support Call Path. Alternatively, if a call reaches the end of the Sales Call Path, you can put a Path Bridge at the end that bridges the call to support. That way when an inbound call is not answered by Sales, it can be answered by someone in Support.

When a callback is rescheduled, InsideSales will update the callback task in Salesforce within 15 minutes to reflect the new callback date and time. A missed callback can only be rescheduled three times before the system will stop rescheduling it. Adds a TIC sheet item to the PowerDialer stand-alone interface that counts all calls that are equal to or exceed the value entered in this field. Field is in seconds. NOTE – This is a PowerDialer only feature and does not apply to Click-to-Call.

PowerDialer Dialing Lists Seek Lists SEEK LIST OVERVIEW Seek Lists are dynamic dialing lists that present reps records for dialing according to business rules set by administrators and managers. Seek Lists refresh each hour, pulling in the appropriate records and removing records that are no longer qualified to be in the list. Administrators and managers can create Seek Lists and invite reps to the lists. Reps are then able to login to the lists and have the records presented to them to be dialed.
PACKAGES Accelerate Elevate
LIMITATIONS Not available for professional edition
SEE ALSO Domino Lists
CREATING SEEK LISTS Administrators or Managers are typically the users who create Seek Lists for their reps. Creating a Seek List is broken into two parts – The main Seek List settings and the individual dialing rules. Each Seek List contains multiple dialing rules. Each dialing rule contains the filters and criteria for which records are pulled into a dialing rule. Dialing rules are then prioritized within the Seek List so that reps are always working on eligible records from the most important dialing rules first. NOTE – There are several different versions of the Seek List setup. Documented here is the supported Seek List setup process. 1. Click the InsideSales tab. 2. Click Seek Lists. 3. Click New Seek List or edit an existing Seek List. 4. Configure Seek List main settings. 5. Click Save on Seek List. 121

Limit Calling Times
Business Hours: Ensures that calls are not placed to prospect where the dialed phone number is outside of the hours of 8AM to 6PM.

PowerDialer Dialing Lists Time Between Calls blocks the same record from coming back into the dialer list repeatedly in a short period of time. For example, if a record does not change sufficiently from one hour to the next, the dialing rule may cause the record to be pulled in again because it still meets the dialing rule criteria.
Time Between Calls
This setting ensures that even if a record technically meets the filter criteria for a dialing rule that the record is not pulled back into the list until the time between calls expires.
Use Salesforce Email Templates
Assigns specific Salesforce email template folders to the specific Seek List. When a rep presses the Send Email button from within the PowerDialer, they will only be able to send emails from the templates selected in this field. NOTE – This setting only applies to reps using the PowerDialer.

NOTE – Before you are able to create dialing rules on a new Seek List you must first save the Seek List.
SEEK LIST REFRESH Each hour each dialing rule in a Seek List refreshes, pulling in all records that meet the criteria and removing all records that no longer meet the dialing rule criteria.

Details
Pending Callback
If there is a pending callback set on a record the record will be ineligible to be pulled into a Seek List until the callback has been resolved. To determine if a record has a callback, view the open tasks related to the record and look for the term Callback in the subject field.
Recently Called
If a record was called too recently as per the Time Between Calls field, the record will be ineligible for the Seek List.
Do-Not-Call
Leads and Contacts flagged as do-not-call are automatically excluded from all Seek Lists.

PowerDialer Dialing Lists Reason
Details
Blank Phone Number
Only records with phone numbers in the primary phone number field are included in Seek Lists. Records without phone numbers cannot be pulled into a Seek List to be dialed. If an invalid number is saved on the record, InsideSales will not be able to reliably present it to reps.
Invalid Phone Number
NOTE – If you are filtering by time zone, invalid numbers frequently don’t have a valid time zone. If there is no valid time zone, then the Seek List will not pull in the record.
Already Dialed
A single record can be pulled into multiple Seek Lists during the same hour timeframe, however it can only be dialed from one Seek List within a single hour. As such, if a record was dialed in one Seek List, it will be removed from the other Seek List to ensure it isn’t called twice.
Invalid Time
Seek Lists rely on time to determine when a record should and should not be pulled in. A record may meet all of the filter criteria, but be disqualified because it is not the appropriate time to call a record.

PowerDialer Dialing Lists Domino Lists DOMINO LIST OVERVIEW Domino Lists are static dialing lists that present records from a pre-defined list that does not change. Once a record has been presented to a rep, the record is removed from the list and will not be presented again. Domino Lists do not refresh – once a record is added it stays in the list regardless of if the record changes and is technically no longer eligible for the list. Domino Lists are primarily used when there is a specific number of records that need to be immediately dialed.

PURCHASING DIALER MINUTES Pre-purchased dialer minutes are used each time a sales rep receives or places a call. When a dialer minute balance reaches zero, reps will be unable to place outbound calls or receive inbound calls. Dialer minutes can be quickly purchased to ensure that a positive balance is kept. 1.

Account Management the selected funding source the amount of money that will replenish the minute balance for two weeks. NOTE – It is not recommended that automatic recharge is enabled if you have not used InsideSales for at least one month so that InsideSales can better calculate the average two-week usage of minutes. If automatic recharge is enabled without a month worth of analysis, multiple charges will be made in a short amount of time as InsideSales determines the average use of your reps. NOTE – Because ACH (bank transfers) take 3-5 business, we do not recommend using them for automatic recharge. You will not be credited the additional minutes until your transfer is completely processed.
CONFIGURING BILLING PREFERENCES Billing settings can be configured by adding funding sources, setting the individual who can perform billing transactions, and more.

Account Management Immediate Response Setup IMMEDIATE RESPONSE OVERVIEW InsideSales provides the ability for administrators to create rules that cause high priority records to be sent to reps immediately to be dialed – frequently called immediate response. Immediate response is commonly used with web leads. When a new web prospect is created in Salesforce, utilizing immediate response reps can reach out to that prospect within seconds of the record being created.

LIMITATIONS None
SEE ALSO Manage Users
TYPES OF IMMEDIATE RESPONSE There are two different kinds of immediate response. NOTE – InsideSales recommends careful consideration while choosing which type of immediate response is appropriate for your business.
CALL NOWS A Call Now sends a prospect record to the top of the dialer list, so that the next time a rep requests the next record in the list the record that is presented to the rep is the call now prospect. Call Nows are recommended if reps are in an environment where they are expected to do a high volume of outbound calls and managers want to encourage them to continue moving through a list.
RESPONSEPOP A ResponsePop immediate response causes an inbound call to be placed to a Rep Queue. The inbound call is then routed to the next available rep based on the rep queue routing configurations. When a rep accepts the call, the InsideSales system
153

Account Management then immediately dials out to the prospect connecting the rep and prospect together. ResponsePop is recommended when reps are not placing a high volume of outbound calls, since they are not frequently moving to the next record in the list. NOTE – Because ResponsePop mimics an inbound call, when a ResponsePop is routed to a rep the rep will be marked as Not Ready for Inbound. Once the call is completed, the rep will need to manually mark themselves as ready for inbound again to be eligible for additional ResponsePops or inbound calls.
CONFIGURING IMMEDIATE RESPONSE Configuring immediate response requires a number of manual steps and creating custom code that exists within Salesforce. NOTE – Configuring immediate response requires high proficiency with Salesforce coding language. This should only be done by Salesforce administrators or trained Salesforce managers. The sections below are provided only as an example, provided for your information.
1. CREATE APEX CLASS The first thing that is required is creating a new Salesforce Apex class. The code required for this class is provided below. No adjustments to the class code needs to be made, simply add it to the apex class. 1. Go to User Name and click Setup. 2. Click Develop in the sidebar. 3. Click Manage Your Apex Classes. 4. Click New. 5. Copy and paste apex class code. 6. Click Save. 154
© 2016 InsideSales.com
Account Management Apex Class Code [START CODE] global class HTTPRequestSender{ @future (callout=true) Public static void sendHTTPRequest(String url, String body){ Http http = new Http(); HttpResponse res = new HttpResponse(); HttpRequest req = new HttpRequest(); req.setEndpoint(url); req.setBody(body); req.setMethod('POST'); try { res = http.send(req); } catch(System.CalloutException e) { System.debug('CalloutException: '+ e); System.debug(res.toString()); } } } [END CODE]
2. CREATE APEX TRIGGER The Apex Trigger itself determines the method for immediate response – ResponsePop or Call Nows. The Trigger also determines when to cause immediate
155
© 2016 InsideSales.com
Account Management response to happen. For example, when a new lead enters Salesforce with the Lead Source of Web, the Apex Trigger can run and cause immediate response to occur. 1. Go to User Name and click Setup. 2. Click Customize in the sidebar. 3. Click Leads (Leads, Accounts, and Contacts are supported). 4. Click Triggers. 5. Click New. 6. Enter Apex code. 7. Click Save. Sample Apex Trigger code is provided below. The red and blue text will need to be specifically altered. Apex Trigger Code Sample [START CODE] trigger ImmediateResponse on Lead (after insert) { ID[] ids = new List(); String url = 'https://subdomain.insidesales.com/do=noauth/immediate_response'; String body; for (Lead l : Trigger.new) { if (l.LeadSource == 'Web') { ids.add(l.Id); } } if (!ids.isEmpty()) {

Account Management body = 'method=responsepop&inbound_initiative_id=1&ids='+EncodingUtil.urlEncode(JSON.serialize(ids), 'ISO-8859-1'); HTTPRequestSender.sendHTTPRequest(url, body); } } [END CODE]
RED TEXT: To work properly, the red code shown in the example also needs to be updated. It is contained in this line:
body = 'method=responsepop&inbound_initiative_id=1
This section of code determines what kind of immediate response is given. Several options exist for you to put into the code. Potential Options: Option
Code
ResponsePop
responsepop&inbound_initiative_id=1
Call Now (Specific List)
call_now&dialer_initiative_id=1
Call Now (No List)
call_now
BLUE TEXT: The trigger code needs to have the unique InsideSales subdomain entered into it so InsideSales knows which company is requesting immediate response. The trigger code requires the subdomain to be entered. It is contained in this code line: String url = 'https://subdomain.insidesales.com/do=noauth/immediate_response';
157
© 2016 InsideSales.com
Account Management 3. ALLOW REMOTE SITE This is not part of the Apex Trigger code, but in order to work, the trigger itself references an InsideSales.com domain site. This is the same domain used to alter the blue section of the code. This site needs to be added to Salesforce as an allowed remote site for immediate response to function. 1. Go to User Name and click Setup. 2. Click Security Controls. 3. Click Remote Site Settings. 4. Click New Remote Site. 5. Enter blue section into the URL field. 6. Enter a remote site name – this can contain any value. 7. Click Save. NOTE – With immediate response, responding quickly is essential. It is possible to do immediate response using Workflow rules instead of an Apex Trigger. InsideSales does not recommend using Workflow rules as they frequently run slow.

PowerStandings Configuration Guide Each widget shows the KPI being tracked, how many times the rep has performed the KPI (labeled You), how many times the rep just ahead of them on the team has performed the KPI (labeled Next), and the rep’s rank on the team for meeting that KPI. If a rep is in first place, it will show the rep just behind them instead. To add a new widget, click on a blank option. The order of widgets can be adjusted by dragging widgets to a new position. To Edit an existing widget, hover over the widget itself and then click on the wrench icon in the upper right hand corner once it appears.

Description
KPI
Shows reps their current ranking for the identified KPI, within a specific time frame. The Rank and Next numbers update as reps work. Once you select KPI, two additional options will become available for you to select the KPI you want measured and the Date Range you want measured.
Challenge
When you select this option, the system will automatically display the current standings for ALL Challenges in which the rep is actively engaged. Although the standings only show one challenge at a time, reps can cycle through all of the active challenges by clicking on the widget in their display panel. TIP: If you regularly use Challenges, we recommend using a widget to display those Challenges as they do not show up in the PowerStandings side panel unless you navigate to the Challenges section.

Points View
These are aspects of Adaptive widgets which are being phased out so you can disregard this setting. As the field is required, it is recommend to leave the field in its default selection of Dials. Reps will view the results of the Points View Setting in their Sidebars / Standings Bars. For example, if a rep's team has a Points View Setting defined as This Month, that rep may only see 1 Point even though the rep has earned more points in previous months. In essence, the Points View Setting determines the cadence when points will "recycle" or "reset" themselves. This is useful so reps with shorter tenures can still compete on points in the Points View Settings' smaller time ranges. Also, the points total in the sidebar based on the Points View Setting will determine how

PowerStandings Configuration Guide many points a rep has available to use on Throwdowns.
TEAM MEMBERS The Team Members section defines which reps are members of the specific team. Team membership is essential, as it controls when a rep is eligible for a Challenge, Achievement, or appears on a Leaderboard. Reps can be added to teams by Salesforce Role or by Salesforce Manager. To configure team membership by Salesforce Manager contact InsideSales support. NOTE: Roles are recommended when creating teams. If you prefer to group PowerStandings teams by Salesforce.com’s standard Manager field, contact InsideSales.com support to enable the option. Reps can only be part of one team at a time.
TEAM MANAGERS Team managers are designated Salesforce users who can manage team Challenges, widgets, and notification settings without having to be a Salesforce administrator. Once a team manager is selected, they will have access to the Manage Teams link on the InsideSales tab. Managers selected in this area will only see Challenges which are associated with his or her respective team(s). So, if Jim is selected as a Team Manager for a team, Jim will not see Challenges from Susie's team when he clicks on Challenges.
NOTIFICATION SETTINGS By default, PowerStandings will display periodic notices across reps’screens throughout the day based on activity. For example, if a rep takes the lead in a Challenge or daily KPI metric, the notification system would display a congratulatory message.

SETTINGS Setting
Description
KPI Name
This field indicates the name of the KPI. You can rename this KPI label to align with your business terminology. Points are a way of creating a weighted value for different KPIs in calculating effectiveness. For example, in many organizations setting an appointment with a prospect would be seen as more valuable than simply making a lot of phone calls. In this case you might want to weight the value of a set appointment as 25 times more important than a single phone call. Point values for each KPI are set individually in the KPI settings.
Points
For Talk Time and Revenue KPIs, you may assign Points as a ratio of either Talk Time or Revenue. Those KPIs will have an additional field next to Points labeled Minutes or Dollars. The Dollars field is limited to U.S. dollars only. BEST PRACTICE: make Dials worth 1 point. With Dials as a 1 point baseline, consider other metrics relative to Dials. For example, if it takes approximately 25 Dials to set an Appointment, the Appointments Set KPI might be worth 25 points.

PowerStandings Configuration Guide Leaderboards LEADERBOARDS OVERVIEW Recognition breeds motivation. Customize your own Leaderboards that highlight top performers, individual victories and team challenges in exciting and elegant displays optimized for large screens and desktops. Leaderboards add a key motivational component to PowerStandings, giving your reps a public, up-to-thesecond view of activity. As work gets done and KPIs tally, your leaderboards update in real-time to give insights in to performance.

Events Feed
Located on the right side of the Leaderboard, it lists the 3 most recent PowerStandings events
LEADERBOARD SETTINGS: Setting
Description
Leaderboard Name
Typically a team name. Keep the name shorter than the text box so the name won't truncate on the Leaderboard.
Transition Time
Determines how long the current Leaderlist will remain displayed before transitioning to the next. Recommended setting is 30 seconds.
Custom Sounds
You can set this to Enabled or Disabled. If enabled, reps can also select, within their personal profiles, a custom sound or song to play during their Leaderboard events. For the custom sound to play, the Event must have the Fullscreen option selected (see Events below).
Keep Alive
Best setting is enabled. This setting allows the Leaderboard to keep its session alive with the ISDC backend services. Managers may choose to disable this feature if they do not want sessions to stay alive. When Keep Alive is disabled, your Leaderboard will time out based on your Salesforce.com timeout settings.

PowerStandings Configuration Guide Keep Alive Interval
Best setting is either 5 or 10 minutes depending on your timeout settings.
LEADERLIST SETTINGS: Setting
Description
Active
Make sure this box is checked for the Leaderlist to appear on your Leaderboard.
Title
This determines the title that will appear on the top of the Leaderboard. We recommend including the KPI and time range in the title, i.e. “Daily Dials”. Titles are limited to 45 characters.
Content
From this dropdown you select the active KPI you wish the Leaderlist to reflect. If a KPI is not active, it will not show in this dropdown. Do not select a non-KPI option as they will not display and will shortly be removed from this list.
Date Range
Select the range of time you wish reflected on the Leaderlist. We recommend monthly or less. For KPIs that occur more frequently, such as Dials, consider Daily or Weekly.
Color
This determines the color scheme and background color of your Leaderlist. If you are using multiple Leaderlists, consider using different background colors to help distinguish each list.
Teams
This determines the agents who are eligible to be displayed on your Leaderlist. You can select more than one team, though the Leaderlist

Event Feed
Checking this box determines whether the Leaderboard will display that particular event on the Events section. This box must be checked to enable the Fullscreen option to be selected.
Fullscreen
This allows the event to trigger a fullscreen event. To enable Fullscreen events you must also check Event Feed. Custom Sounds will only play for Events that are enabled for Fullscreen.
BEST PRACTICES: o
Do not configure more than 3-5 fullscreen events or the team will get annoyed with too many events. Keep in mind, the more teams / users assigned to a Leaderboard / Leaderlists, the more the events will be triggered.
o
Encourage reps to upload their theme songs via their Personal Profiles to get the most out of the Leaderboards events.

PowerStandings Configuration Guide Challenges CHALLENGES OVERVIEW Team challenges foster a competitive environment as team members work towards the challenge objective. Since the Standings Bar, Leaderboards, and Dashboards already track standings consistently for a team, use Challenges when you're looking for an extra boost of competition. With Challenges, managers can set special competitions for their team, and track how agents do in completing them.

PowerStandings Configuration Guide Agents are given the option of using an existing Salesforce Chatter picture, but we recommend against this due to poor resolution. This photo will potentially be displayed on larger screens, including TVs, and in order to achieve the best resolution of your profile picture, it is recommended you have a 1:1 ratio (1000 x 1000 pixels) and a size of at least 1MB. Also, crop your photo ahead of time as the display shape is always square and uncropped images will be distorted to fit the default shape.

NeuralView Configuration Guide NeuralView seek list (NeuralSort) NEURALVIEW SEEK LIST OVERVIEW NeuralView provides scores relating to contactability and close, but the seek list is where the scores become prescriptive action. Properly configuring a seek list with NeuralView in mind is what will determine the success of reps as well as ease the workload on sales management. NeuralView seek lists are much more inclusive of records than the typical Seek List. Therefore, a slightly different approach is necessary when setting them up. All scored records will be included in the list, with known criteria used to opt certain records out. NeuralSort will work within the dialing rules set up by the user in order to sort records in order of likelihood to contact.
PACKAGES: Accelerate
LIMITATIONS: None
SEE ALSO: Seek List
CREATING A SEEK LIST FOR NEURALVIEW Creating a seek list for use with NeuralView is fairly simple, but requires a bit of planning from the perspective of management to determine who should not be brought into the reps’ workflow. The steps are as follows: 1. Click the InsideSales tab 2. Click Seek Lists 3. Click New Seek List 4. Name the Seek List 5. Set Time Between Calls (720 minutes for 12 hours, 1,440 for 24 hours) 6. Select the Dialer Panel 7. Set NeuralSort to On 212
