Automated Processes
Automated Processes™ allow you to set up a series of predefined actions
to be performed on any group of contacts in the database, automating
routine tasks. Several of the actions, or events (Step-by-step
instructions contained in an Automated Process, or track, that GoldMine
must evaluate to perform a specified series of activities. An event
consists of a trigger and an action. An Automated Process consists of a
sequence of one or more events), can be linked together to form a track
(A sequence of two or more events, which are the step-by-step
instructions that GoldMine evaluates to perform a defined series of
activities. Also known as an Automated Process.)
Automated Processes have two main components: tracks and events. The
events within each track are set to perform an action when triggered by
on a defined condition.

and how it works.

GoldMine Analysis
The Statistical Analysis of Completed Activities dialog box displays
completed activity information for an individual user, a group of users,
or on a system-wide basis. The analysis of completed activities can
provide useful insight into your performance or the performance of
others in your organization.
You can review the current status of sales efforts by analyzing how each
member of the sales team is meeting quota for a specified period. This
analysis uses data about the assigned quota, forecast sales, completed
sales, and lost sales to derive either a percentage of quota or a
percentage of forecast sales attained by a salesperson. Because GoldMine
analyzes data by period, a "track record" for each salesperson can be
seen via listings over multiple periods.
GoldMine’s Lead Analysis enables managers to track valuable information
on the current status of sales efforts, and on the effectiveness of
various advertising and promotional efforts in generating inquiries and
sales. Used in this way, GoldMine becomes a strategic asset. GoldMine
provides timely and accurate information to help managers make better
decisions on deploying their resources.

Opportunity Manager
The Opportunity Manager lends itself to a complex sales process
involving a group of users working as a team with multiple organizations
and contacts. The sale may involve multiple products or services as a
package deal where the customer purchases a part of the package, but
renegotiates other parts into a different package
The Opportunity and Project Manager windows allow you to view all the
details of the opportunity or project from initial contact to a closed
sale. The sales team can view summary and detailed information about
forecasted sales and activities linked to the opportunity. As the
project or opportunity progresses, a complete record of all associated
activities ensure that the team is making a coordinated effort to
complete the sale. The team is also able to see the decision-makers and
linked contacts in the project and act accordingly. The templates and
the ability to attach Automated Processes use the full capabilities of
GoldMine.

InfoCenter
GoldMine’s InfoCenter provides a resource for maintaining any type of
information useful to an organization or an individual. Just as
information is not limited to text files, the InfoCenter can provide
easily accessible storage for any information, including graphics,
multimedia files, and program applications. This information can then be
linked to a Contact Record, so GoldMine displays the record
automatically whenever you access that topic. The information in the
InfoCenter is stored in the InfoMine table.
The InfoCenter consists of three separate resources:
KnowledgeBase: Maintains information created by, for, and about an
organization and available to multiple users.
PersonalBase: Maintains information useful to an individual user that
only the user can view and update.
What’s new?: Presents KnowledgeBase items in reverse chronological
order, keeping users aware of current material.
The KnowledgeBase and the PersonalBase organize topic pages, which are
items of related information arranged in a hierarchical structure
similar to an outline format. You can quickly find information by
navigating through different sections or by conducting a search. You can
even open a linked file created by another application, such as a
document, bitmap graphic, multimedia file, or a program application.
