Book of Business and access to Accounts, Contacts, and Opportunities

We have a question about access and Books of Business...
We have an account with a book of business. The account has 20 contacts and each contact has 2 opportunities associated with it. If a user has access and can see the account, will they be able to see the details of 20 contacts and 40 opportunities associated with the account without adding the books of business to those contacts / opportunities, or for a user to access all the records, all records need to have a book of business associated?

Thanks for the clarification. The user still cannot actually open the contact or opportunity that is tied to an account even though the account record has a book of business. I played with the related information section for the Account Record type and the still received errors when they click on a contact or opportunity.
I then update the contact and opportunity with the book of business and they were able to click and see the details.
I guess this is telling us that a book of business is required on accounts, contact, and opportunities if other users would like to see the details for contacts and opportunities related to an account.

  • Analytics Visibility - Books of Business and Direct Reports

    We have a manager who has looks over two key accounts and also has a few employees who deal with smaller deals.
    For the two major accounts, the opportunities are assigned Books of Business and each book rolls up to the same parent book.
    When the manager runs a report, and picks the parent book at the 'Look In', will they see other opportunities that are owned by people who report to him/her, or will they just see opportunities that have the books of business on them.
    In a perfect world, they would like to see the key account opportunities as well as the other opportunities for people who report to them.
    Can this be done?

    David,
    I will email you a file that explains analytics visibility in R15.
    The file is also available on Metalink for anyone else who needs the information... search for analytics visibility.

  • Managed List and Book of Business

    I have created a managed list based on the My default lookin sector which is a particular Book of Business.
    This list works fine. Now the users would like the same list, but to include only those in the Book of Business where they are the a true owner of the account. I cannot seem to find a way to make this work. Is there some type os session variable I can use to code User equal to User signed in? I cannot find any documentation on this.
    If I change the list to show all accounts I own, then accounts not in the Book of Business show up.
    Any ideas?

    That will certainly work in this case. However, I'm just concerned that if we have some complex criteria for a BoB that is would be hard to duplicate in the managed lists and concerns of future maintenance of the list when the books change.
    I'd like to see that ability built into the list facility, where I could select the book of business and then also select the accounts I own. Think this would be cleaner and less headaches.
    Thanks !!

  • Hi Reg Assignment of Book of Business

    Hi everyone,
    i just wanted to know how to configure the workflow for making this condition satisfy:
    Top Management grants access to a custom object to the sub-ordinate by adding into custom object team, i want the associated account, associated contacts also accessible to him apart from the custom object.
    what i though i would pack account and related contact information in book of business and assign it to the sub-ordinate automatically when his name is added in custom-object team.
    can any one help me out what would be:
    trigger even:
    condition to apply
    regards,
    uday

    Uday,
    I dont think this would be possible.
    Is there a pre defined rule based on which the custom object access is given?

  • Books of business - supported via web services

    Are books of business supported in R15 via web services interface? If we create a new Contact, Account or Opportunity, can we associate it to a specific book? I can't find any documentation on this subject.
    If not, what's the point of using this functionality? We have over 13,000 different zip code ranges in our territory structure in Oracle 11i CRM, and would like to be able to maintain some sort of parallel structure in OnDemand via web services integration.
    Are we stuck with creating Sales Team records for all object types? Seems very cumbersome to have to add a specific user to 100,000 different records, when we could simply assign them to a single book of business and accomplish the same thing.
    Thanks,
    Scott

    Scott, web services will not be supported for book of business in R15. However, I passing this information to our On Demand product marketing. Thanks for the feedback.

  • Custom Reports using Book of Business

    I was wondering if anyone can provide some help with book of business and custom reports. I have tried to created a custom report and changed the Book in the book selector at the top of the reports page, but it still returns results from all of the entries as opposed to just those associated with the book. Any ideas?
    Thanks in advance.

  • I have business and personal e-mail accounts with different contacts. Can I have more than one address book on my iPhone?

    I have business and personal e-mail accounts with different contacts. Can I have more than one address book on my iPhone?

    Set up an additional user account and use one for work and one for personal stuff - each will have a separate address book. Turn on fast user switching for easy switching between the two.

  • I need help in resolving a problem that prevents me from accessing the iTunes store.  Message reads " iTunes cannot contact the iTunes store" and also says that my laptop is no longer authorized to access my account.  Help!

    I need help in resolving a problem that prevents me from accessing the iTunes store.  Message reads " iTunes cannot contact the iTunes store" and also says that my laptop is no longer authorized to access my account.  Help!

    Go up to the top of your screen on iTunes and click on 'Store'.  Then go down to 'Authorize This Computer'.  That should cover part of it unless you've already authorized a bunch of other computers to use your account.  If that's the case, you'll have to go to one of those computers and click the button just below it to 'deauthorize your account' from that computer.  If you're not able to access the store, check your internet connection to make sure you are connected.  Hope this helps.. good luck!     

  • Separate business and personal contacts/calendar on Exchange enabled phone?

    I'm a new iPhone user (3gsi) with Exchange support enabled. What I would like to do is manage my business and personal contacts and calendar separately with work items syncing with Exchange and personal items with something else (like Google Calendar/Contacts). Is it possible to separate this way and possibly even manage it all together using the existing calendar and contact apps? I am not interested in the MobileMe service.
    Example - I add a personal contact and I dont want it to sync with Exchange, but Google contacts would be nice. Or I add a calendar item that I want to sync with Google calendar instead of Exchange.
    Thx!

    With an Exchange account syncing business contacts and calendar events over the air, you can also sync personal contacts and calender events direct with a supported application on your computer via the iTunes sync process. You can view business and personal contacts and calendar events combined or separately on the iPhone.
    With Windows, this can be with Outlook 2003 or 2007. With a Mac, this can be with the Address Book and iCal.
    Or you can sync personal contacts and calendar events over the air with a MobileMe account while doing the same for business contacts and calendar events with an Exchange account.
    You can access a Gmail account as an Exchange account via ActiveSync with the iPhone's Mail client, which provides for syncing personal contacts and calendar events over the air, but you can't access two Exchange accounts via ActiveSync with the iPhone's Mail client. This is not supported with ActiveSync with a Windows Mobile device either.

  • Keeping Business and Personal Contacts Separate?

    I have a MS Exchange account at work and use Entourage for my personal contacts on my home computer.
    Would it be possible to have both sets of info sync to my phone? I know the iphone has active sync for the Exchange data but then, would it be possible to sync with my home computer without having them then uploaded to my company's exchange server next time activesync connects?
    I imagine a lot of people would want to do something like this??

  • Somone from China accessed my account and drained the money, how can i get my money back?

    Somone from China accessed my account and drained the money, how can i get my money back?

    That article only applies to previously purchased music, apps and books.
    Currently iTunes does not allow for re-downloading movies.  This may happen in the future with iCloud, but that remains to be seen.
    Your best bet is going to be to contact iTunes via email here:

  • The Facebook app on my iPad will not let me access my account. I was recently married so my Facebook name changed and I updated my password. Now when I go into Facebook under settings and try to access my account it is still using the old name.

    I got married, changed my Facebook name and gave my account a new password. Now, under settings and Facebook they have my ITunes/Apple ID and under it says "please sign in using (my old Facebook name) and under that is password. Only that old Facebook name has changed but did not update on my iPad settings. Also it will not accept my new password. I cannot erase it. If Apple doesnt want us to use more than one account, what do we do in this situation? Or if our Facebook gets hacked and becomes compromised? This is not okay. I have to be able to access this and because it will accept only one and will not update changes I cannot longer access my account. I buy a lot of Apple products. I won't buy another if it's not corrected. This is horribly frustrating. Not to mention waiting on youtube videos to load is almost as bad as waiting on dial-up. But that's another matter. Is there a way around this or do I need to start looking for products somewhere else? Anyone know? Thanks.

    You need to reset the password for the "old" account, and then use that to turn off iCloud.  Then you will be able to sign in with your new ID.
    You can reset your password at iForgot.apple.com.
    If you don't know the answers to the security questions, you will need to start there.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312
    -If you established a rescue email address, there will be a link on the "Passwords & Security" page of id.apple.com.  Clicking the link will send the reset to your rescue email address (NOTE:  This is not the same address as your Apple ID email)
    -If there is no link on the page, then you didn't establish a rescue email address.  Contact AppleCare at 800.694.7466 (If you are in the US), and ask for account security.  You will need to answer some questions to verify your identity, AND you will need access to a computer to generate a temporary support pin.

    Let's check your Windows system.
    1.  Have you done all the important windows updates and service Packs on your system.  If not do it now.  START button, type in Windows Update and ENTER.  Select 'CHECK FOR UPDATES'
    2.  Let's check your Windows system files for possible file corruption
    SCAN and repair possible Windows system file corruption:
    Go to command prompt (START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES right mouse click "command prompt" and choose "Run as Administrator"
    type in
    sfc /scannow
    let Windows fix any system files that need to be repaired.
    Restart the computer if it did actually repair any files.
    3.  Check your system for possible Malware.  But you have to do it in WIndows Safe Mode.
    Start your computer in "Safe mode with networking", go to this link download a free version of Malwarebyte.
    http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free
    Install and perform update immediately, then do a full SCAN. Remove malware if it indeed finds any. Restart computer to regular windows to let Malwarebyte complete the removal.
    To start your computer in safe mode
    Press and hold the F8 key as your computer starts. You need to press F8 before the Windows logo appears. If the Windows logo appears, you'll need to try again by waiting until the Windows logon prompt appears, and then shutting down and restarting your computer.
    On the Advanced Boot Options screen, use the arrow keys to highlight the "safe mode with networking" option, and then press Enter. Log on to your computer with a user account that has administrator rights.
    When your computer is in safe mode, you'll see the words Safe Mode in the corners of your screen. To exit safe mode, restart your computer and let Windows start normally.

    Can I use iCloud to since many users to one account for my business and have me as a administrator to oversee and change my employees calendars and contacts??

    Go to System Preferences and click Sign Out, select Delete at all the prompts, then sign back in with the changed ID?   (Your iCloud data will disappear from your Mac when you sign out and choose Delete, but will still be in iCloud.  Provided you are signing back into the same account your data will reappear on your Mac when you sign back in.)
