Aside post

“I never tried to prove nothing, just wanted to give a good show. My life has always been my music, it’s always come first, but the music ain’t worth nothing if you can’t lay it on the public. The main thing is to live for that audience, ’cause what you’re there for is to please the people.”

Abbott: Strange as it may seem, they give ball players nowadays very peculiar names.

Costello: Funny names?

Abbott: Nicknames, nicknames. Now, on the St. Louis team we have Who’s on first, What’s on second, I Don’t Know is on third–

Costello: That’s what I want to find out. I want you to tell me the names of the fellows on the St. Louis team.

Abbott: That’s the man’s name.

Costello: That’s who’s name?

Abbott: Yes.

Costello: When you pay off the first baseman every month, who gets the money?

Abbott: Every dollar of it. And why not, the man’s entitled to it.

Costello: Who is?

Abbott: Yes.

Costello: So who gets it?

Abbott: Why shouldn’t he? Sometimes his wife comes down and collects it.

Costello: Who’s wife?

Abbott: Yes. After all, the man earns it.

Costello: Who does?

Abbott: Absolutely.

Costello: Well, all I’m trying to find out is what’s the guy’s name on first base?

Costello: Stay out of the infield! The left fielder’s name?

Abbott: Why.

Abbott: Oh, he’s center field.

Costello: Wait a minute. You got a pitcher on this team?

Abbott: Wouldn’t this be a fine team without a pitcher?

Costello: Tell me the pitcher’s name.

Abbott: Tomorrow.

Costello: Now, when the guy at bat bunts the ball–me being a good catcher–I want to throw the guy out at first base, so I pick up the ball and throw it to who?

Abbott: Now, that’s he first thing you’ve said right.

Costello: I DON’T EVEN KNOW WHAT I’M TALKING ABOUT!

Abbott: Don’t get excited. Take it easy.

Costello: I throw the ball to first base, whoever it is grabs the ball, so the guy runs to second. Who picks up the ball and throws it to what. What throws it to I don’t know. I don’t know throws it back to tomorrow–a triple play.

Abbott: Yeah, it could be.

Costello: Another guy gets up and it’s a long ball to center.

Abbott: Because.

Costello: Why? I don’t know. And I don’t care.

Abbott: What was that?

Costello: I said, I DON’T CARE!

Abbott: Oh, that’s our shortstop!

SugarCRM Leads or Contacts Search by Email Is Slow or Time Outs

because of a MySQL bug still active in almost all servers the search from SugarCRM becomes very slow or even times out for big databases/tables when “Any email” field is involved.

Solving this bug improves the speed of search considerably , allowing users to use this search for databases with a big number of records too , and decreasing server load considerably.

Part that needs fixed

leads.id IN (SELECT eabr.bean_id FROM email_addr_bean_rel eabr
  JOIN email_addresses ea ON (ea.id = eabr.email_address_id) WHERE eabr.deleted=0 AND ea.email_address LIKE

SugarCRM Magento Sync Connector

    If you have an on-line store you probably wondered how you could create a link between Magento and SugarCRM where the information introduced on your website could be transferred into SugarCRM. The new application released by Danmar Computers creates a sync between Magento, the open source ecommerce system and SugarCRM. In short, with the new module, when a customer registers in Magento, that customer will be synced with Sugar CRM as a new lead, and when the customer completes the checkout in the store the lead created in Sugar CRM will be converted into an account and a contact, adding the address and the phone numbers from the checkout form.
In addition, the module will automatically create a lead for each client which will be converted into an opportunity* and in which all the ordered products will be added.

SugarCRM Magento Sync

    A new customer on the store`s site can create an account to purchase some items or just to subscribe to the newsletter, offers. After finishing the registration form and hitting the “Submit” button, creating an account, the entered data will be sent to the SugarCRM instance and a Lead will be created.

    If the customer continues with a purchase of some items form the store, on the last step of the Checkout form, upon submitting the order in the store, all the data will be sent to the SugarCRM instance. The created lead, mentioned earlier, will be updated with the new data from Magento (addresses, phones etc.) and will be converted creating an Account, Contact and Opportunity.

    If the customer does not create an account prior to an order or doesn’t want to create one, submitting the order as a guest, in the SugarCRM instance a lead will be created and afterwards it will be converted.

    The ordered products will be added in the Opportunity, in the tab “Magento Products”. All the products will be added also in the “Magento Product Catalog”, in SugarCRM , if they do not already exist, in order to keep track of them and to create reports and graphs.

SugarCRM Google Plus Connector – Google API Key is missing

Please make sure you have inserted Google API key in connector settings. Full details of how to do this are available in product manual .

SugarCRM E-conomic Connector


SugarCRM – E-conomic Connector


The SugarCRM – E-conomic connector is a software which executes a synchronization between SugarCRM and
E-conomic, more precisely between the SugarCRM modules of Accounts, Contacts, Products and Quotes, and the
E-conomic modules of Companies, Contacts, Products and Quotations / Orders / Invoices.



The SugarCRM – E-conomic Connector does not execute a fully bidirectional synchronization between the two programs.



Instead, from SugarCRM to E-conomic it synchronizes Sugar’s Accounts, Products, Contacts and Quotes into E-conomic’s Companies, Contacts, Products and Quotations / Orders / Invoices, while from E-conomic to SugarCRM it only synchronizes E-conomic’s Companies and Contacts with Sugar’s Accounts and Contacts.



Install procedure:


Step 1. Download the Sugar to E-conomic Sync Connector zip files.


Step 2. Upload the files in SugarCRM Module Loader  and install it.


Step 3. Check the Administration module, in the bottom of the page you will find a new group titled “E-conomic”.





In the “E-conomic Connector Settings” section  you will have to insert the E-conomic Agreement Number, Username and Password. The E-conomic URL  is the default URL to the API, and  it can be edited if the URL of the API changes.



The other two groups “SugarCRM to E-conomic Sync Settings” and “E-conomic to SugarCRM Sync Settings” allow you to select precisely the elements that you what to sync.


When creating a new Account notice the extra E-conomic Panel and the E-conomic Debtor Group in it, which contains all the possible groups in which a debtor can be placed.



 

At sync, the connector will check whether the SugarCRM Account has a debtor from

E-conomic associated with it. If an associated debtor is found in E-conomic, then that debtor will be checked against the corresponding Account from SugarCRM, and any differences found will be correctly updated in the debtor. If there is no debtor associate, one will be created and marked in the SugarCRM Account.


Also, the Account’s contact/s in SugarCRM will be checked against the corresponding Debtor’s contact/s in E-conomic, and any differences found will be correctly updated in the debtor contacts.



In Product Catalog , a new panel was defined: Economic Panel, it contains all the possible groups in which a product can be placed in E-conomic (Product Groups).




When creating a Quote, the field “E-conomic Stage” shows the state in which the quote is in E-conomic (it can be  Quotation, Order, or an Invoice). Every product inserted in the Quote, must be first added in the Product Catalog.




When the sync procedure is triggered the quotes will be first checked with the E-conomic records by the value from the “E-conomic Stage”. If no record was found as associate to the quote , a new one will be created. After creating the record and updating the fields regarding the debtor, addresses etc. the products will be inserted in it. The products are added also in the

E-conomic Product Catalog and checked for modifications at every quote sync.

If a record is associated to the quote, the record data and the products data will be updated if necessary .

SugarCRM Workflow

The importance of workflow in any business is immeasurable, given that it is a requirement. Workflow always exists and should exist in a company or an organization. It promotes transparency within a business. This allows the visibility of every development or progress in work being done. With SugarCRM, you can convert every process operated manually in a business to an automated workflow. SugarCRM has been always devoted to providing business solutions that aim to empower within or outside business aspects.

The Role of Workflow

Workflow is the movement of files and documents within a business or an organization whether internal or external. It is used to maintain and control the flow of data and information and to ensure smooth business operations. Without setting up a workflow, conflicts and misunderstandings are expected to arise since the flow of information is not updated or perhaps unknown. Workflow is nothing more than capturing information, managing that data and distributing to respective areas or personnel. Moreover, maintaining progressive workflow means ensuring the security of confidential and important documents. In fact, workflow is very much needed nowadays since document processing is already done electronically.

Why and When Workflow Should Be Used

• Standardizing all the processes across departments within a business or organization.

• Creating customized processes required by the company.

• Distinguishing threats, actions and solutions for follow-through assurance.

The Impact of Workflow on Quality

Analyzing workflow only has one aim, and that is to achieve improved efficiency. It promotes the increasing importance of minimizing slack time in response to incentives and financial constraints. Workflow analysis often results in the redesigning of existing processes to allow the entry of better processes and operations. Thus, quality is the ultimate emphasis that navigates irrelevant transactions and barriers for the betterment of an organization.

How SugarCRM Maximize the Use of Workflow

With its solid understanding of practical business needs, SugarCRM always emphasizes on the delivery of good business and customer service. Authorized users are only allowed to access business information that can be critical or crucial once disclosed unknowingly. With its use of technology to streamline processes, SugarCRM allows businesses and organizations to maximize its capability to maintain a smooth flow of operations and fluent delivery of facts and details from one person to another.

Since SugarCRM promotes solid relationship between a business and its customers, quality and efficiency are always assured to the best of the capability in customer relationship management.

2012 Trends in the CRM Industry

The customer relationship management (CRM) industry has gone through a lot of changes. Dating back to early days, CRM measures were considered ineffective and failing when it comes to customer service. Maybe because of an inaccurate supply of data and irrelevant strategies implemented for the belief that customer preferences will be secured. But that is in the distant past, since new developments have emerged to better the image of what CRM has to offer. In fact, more and more providers of CRM solutions entered the market and have proven useful to customer-facing companies and organizations.

Ever since CRM first appeared, businesses have been looking for the most effective way for making their customers happy and satisfied with their products and services, and CRM saw a lot of changes before it evolved into a vital part of the business planning process. The financial crises which started in 2008 will never be forgotten, as the world’s most trusted CRM providers such as SugarCRM grow bigger and bolder. It might be worthy to understand how such crises affected the CRM industry and to know the new developments in the industry.
Here, we will look at some of the notable trends for the year 2012.

Better Customer Experience

Customers will never be content with what they can have unless the services they receive are enough to make them satisfied. Every customer has his own preferences and in time they may become more demanding. In response to this, CRM providers have created a wide variety of options that all customers can choose from. The industry has decided to embrace an infrastructure wherein smart communication and knowledge sharing are integrated for better customer experience. Traditional customer services are slowly faded away by the advent of online and mobile CRM solutions, which are now preferred by many, most especially those who often have no time to go offline.

Increasing Use of Social Media

With more and more people getting online, there’s no doubt that the online community is becoming modern world of the new era. Finance for social media marketing is increased because of the fact that internet users are potential customers. Efforts of companies vary and they include supporting search engine optimization through the use of social activities. Online marketing has proven useful when it comes to CRM solutions. The integration of famous social networking sites such as Facebook, Twitter and Linkedin dramatically increased the chances of marketing to potential customers.

Enhanced Customer Insight

Customers are where the income of a business lies. It is amazing to know that the solution to maximize customer service also comes from customers. This is achieved through better understanding of customer preferences. This information is gathered by companies for their business analysis. With that, businesses can easily come up with better strategy on how to keep customer satisfaction high.
