Tracking CLM Preview Activity on Veeva CRM on Desktop

  • CRM Desktop (Mac, Windows)

When users display CLM presentations in Presentation View outside of call mode, the displayed slides are tracked to Multichannel Activity and Multichannel Activity Lines. This additional CLM tracking allows customers to report on usage of CLM outside of call mode to better understand the full utilization of CLM.

Users do not need an active internet connection to track preview activity. Any activity tracked offline automatically syncs when the user connects to the internet.

Tracking preview activity stamps the following information on Multichannel_Activity_vod records:

  • Media_Preview_vod = True
  • Saved_for_Later_vod = False

See Tracking CLM Key Messages for more information about the conditions to track CLM activity.

For example, Sarah Jones does not have any upcoming calls about Cholecap but wants to be prepared to discuss the product at any time. To review information about the product, she launches a Cholecap presentation from the media library and displays it in Presentation View without a call. The app immediately begins tracking the CLM preview activity.

Syncing Preview Activity

Preview activity tracking starts when a user launches a presentation in Presentation View without a call. Tracking ends and the activity syncs online when one of the following occurs:

  • The user initiates call mode from a call report
  • The user initiates Save for Later call mode
  • The Veeva CRM on Desktop app is restarted
