Announcements

Removing the View Media Library Visualforce Page

The View Media Library Visualforce page will be removed from all orgs with the 22R2.0 release. Users can access the CLM media library directly in the Veeva CRM Desktop app. If admins created custom tabs and assigned the View Media Library Visualforce page to those tabs, the tabs are not removed and display a message indicating the page is no longer supported. Admins can manually delete the custom tabs to remove the message for users.

Supporting Engage Sandbox Releases and CRM Desktop (Windows) in 22R1.3

Beginning with the 22R1.3 Production Release on June 30, 2022, Engage will have a sandbox available for testing before production releases. This enables admins to test upcoming Engage functionality in their sandbox orgs before deployment to production.

To use the new Engage Sandbox after the 22R1.3 Production release, create a support ticket with the list of CRM sandbox orgs to link to the Engage Sandbox. Admins can assign Engage licenses to test users once the sandbox org is linked to the Engage Sandbox.

Previously created meetings and groups are no longer available once the org is linked to the Engage Sandbox. Existing meetings must be rescheduled and created groups must be recreated.

See Supporting Engage and CRM Desktop Sandbox Releases for more information.

Approved Email On Lightning

The 22R2.0 release will update Approved Email to include the Lightning interface. These User Visible Changes are not planned to affect the current functionality and capabilities of Approved Email. The Lightning interface for Approved Email will be enabled by default for both the Browser Classic and Lightning platforms.

Features

Account Management

Decoupled Unverified Records

Users can create and immediately use decoupled unverified accounts, addresses, and child account records to log a call, or use decoupled unverified new records for an existing account.

DCR Support for the GAS New Account Button

CRM customers can use Decoupled Data Change Request functionality when creating a new account from the Global Account Search results. If the user’s organization is configured for Decoupled DCRs, the New Account Button displays even if the user does not have OLS on the Account object, and launches a version of the New Account Wizard that creates a DCR for the account.

GAS Customized Columns and Preview Pane (Available June 2, 2022)

To make it easier to find accounts, Admins can customize what information displays in the Global Account Search results screen. For Browser (Lightning), admins can specify which columns display. For the iPad, admins can specify which fields display in the preview window for a selected account.

Call Reporting

Capturing Information on Other Attendees

iPhone users can now use the Other Attendees section on the Call Report to capture information on non-target persons involved in a call who incurred expenses—for example, techs or receptionists who participated in a lunch and learn.

Engage

Displaying Sent Messages in the Account Timeline

Users can view the sent message details, including the actions taken on the sent message, for an account on the account timeline. This allows users to assess the recent message activity for accounts when planning calls. Users can drill into Sent_Message_vod records from the timeline for more information.

Events Management

Nominating New Speakers

In order for an account, an HCP, MSL, etc. to speak at an event, the account must be designated as being qualified to speak about the event’s topic. To streamline this process, users can nominate accounts to become new speakers, or can renominate existing speakers to be qualified to speak on additional topics.

MyInsights Studio

Adding Descriptions to MyInsights Content (Available June 2, 2022)

Users can include descriptions for MyInsights pages and data and display elements. When pages or elements have similar names, the description helps users easily identify the appropriate page or element.

Platforms

Hosting an Engage Meeting on the Veeva CRM Desktop App for Mac (Available June 10, 2022)

Online users on MacOS devices can host Engage meetings using the Veeva CRM Desktop app for Mac. The app enables desktop users to share applications on their desktop as well as CLM content from their media library.
