Features

Account Assignment

Excluding Account Territory Sources from Hierarchy Rules

Account territories in Align can come from Assignment Rules, manual creation, data loading, CRM self-assignments, or Territory Feedback. In order to create accurate alignments, admins can configure Hierarchy Rules to exclude certain account territory sources from assigning related accounts within an account hierarchy.

Territory Management

Using Location Based Targeting

Location Based Targeting is a form of sales planning that enables goals to be set against accounts at specific locations, enabling greater specificity in the planning process. Admins can enable Location Based Targeting in Enhanced Territory Feedback to enable end users to view these goals for accounts at specific locations.

Territory Feedback

Territory Feedback Metrics in Manager Feedback

To better visualize territory feedback metrics, including targets, goals, and pending challenges, managers can view this information within Manager Feedback. Managers can use these metrics to see adjustments made to territories in real time, enabling them to ensure any company guidelines for territories are met. Configuration is not needed for this feature.

Viewing MyInsights Visualizations in Manager Feedback

Territory Feedback MyInsights visualizations that display for end users also display in the Info panel in Manager Feedback, enabling managers to view territory information in greater detail than the default Territory Feedback Metrics via the same customized visualizations used by end users.
