BPF vs Playbook
BPF PlaybookPrimary usage
• Business process flows is used to provide a streamlined experience for data entry and controlling entry into stages with minimal automation
• Playbooks empowers users to automate a set of repeatable sales activities based on an external event
Configuration/Authoring
• BPF needs to be configured against each Entity and same BPF can't be leveraged across Entities.
• Creation :- need to take dependency on Admin to help configure a BPF
• Same Playbook can be applied to Multiple Entity TypesE.g. In Scenario like Contract renewals, Playbooks can b configured to be launched in a context of both account opportunity
• Creation :- Sales Manager will be equipped to create\Update a Playbook.
Runtime Experience
• BPF is represented as a set of stages and steps that are displayed in a control at the top of the form
• Execution Mode – Sequential. Any entities/activities is sequential and based on the stage of the BPF
• Multiple BPF's can be configured for an entity, but only 1 can be active and shown on the top of the form
• Traceability - BPF can be configured against at max 5 entities. Hence at max 4 traceable activities can be created
• Any type of entity (OOB/Custom/Activity) can be created
• Playbook activities are shown in the activity timeline on the instance that is linked to the calling record
• Once a Playbook is launched, all the activities are create
• Multiple Playbooks can be launched and viewed for an entity
• No restriction on # of activities that can be configured f Playbook. All the activities created by Playbook are traceable
• For now only 3 Activities will be supported - Task, PhoneCall, Appointment. Support for other activity type to be added in the future.
Rating/ Feedback
• No feature available for BPF's to capture ratings/feedback
• Playbooks to support capturing rating/feedbacks in subsequent releases.
• Average rating will be shown to the user while launchin Playbooks
• Ratings/Feedback to help Sales Manager to measure success of Playbooks and use for continuous updates as well
Task Flow
• Task based operation that users create. • Simplified screens for task or updating a record• Can create records
