Announcements

Ending Support for iOS 14 in 23R1.0

Veeva CRM will no longer support iOS 14 after the 23R1.0 release. Users must upgrade to iOS 15 or higher. Beginning with the 22R3.3 sandbox release on February 23, 2023, for users who are still using iOS 14, a popup displays after signing into Veeva CRM with a message to upgrade devices.

Features

Each new feature is accompanied by a corresponding video. Videos for features in the 22R3.3 release will be available by March 2, 2023.

Approved Email

Confirming RSVPs and Activities

To prevent systems, for example, bots or firewalls, from confirming Events Management RSVPs or multichannel activities, admins can configure a customized confirmation step for email recipients. This is similar to the confirmation step used for consent confirmation emails.

 

CLM

Fading Out CLM Content on CRM Desktop (Windows)

Certain compliance regulations require presentation slides to either display in full or not at all. To help users satisfy these compliance regulations, when the CRM app loses focus due to an overlay or the navigation bar, CLM content remains in the background and fades to black until the overlay or navigation bar is completely closed.

 

Navigating Slides and Presentations on CRM Desktop (Windows)

Users can navigate between CLM slides and presentations using different controls in the media player, including the arrow buttons and the navigation bar. This allows users to easily and smoothly navigate between any content in their media libraries without requiring navigation to be built into the content itself. On CRM Desktop (Windows), the arrow buttons transition to the previous and next slides, and do not save the slide history.

 

Using the Action Menu on CRM Desktop (Windows)

Users have access to action menu options directly from the CLM media player, allowing for increased user efficiency during calls.

 

Events Management

Viewing the Next Steps Section in Lightning for Events Management (Sandbox Beta)

Orgs using the Lightning for Events Management sandbox beta can view the Next Steps section from an EM_Event_vod record on the Browser (Lightning) platform, enabling event organizers to view guidance for the planning process provided by the event admin.

 

Adding Walk-in Attendees in Lightning for Events Management (Sandbox Beta) (Available March 2, 2023)

Event organizers in orgs using the Lightning for Events Management sandbox beta can add walk-in attendees to an event. This enables event organizers on the Browser (Lightning) platform to manually enter walk-in information that may have been collected outside of CRM.

 

Managing Out of Territory Attendees in Lightning for Events Management (Sandbox Beta)

Event organizers in orgs using the Lightning for Events Management sandbox beta can search for attendees outside of their own territory, enabling them to invite these accounts to their events.

 

Medical

Viewing Medical Activities from Vault Clinical in CRM

Using the Clinical Operations to Medical CRM Connection, organizations with both a Clinical Operations CTMS Vault and Medical CRM can exchange and view data related to Clinical and Medical activities, and view discussions, and clinical study and site information. This information allows users to have a complete picture of the HCP.

 

MyInsights Studio

Using the Merge Lists Data Element (Available March 2, 2023)

Content creators can use the Merge Lists data element to easily combine different types of data in a single display element, such as a chart or table, by merging multiple data elements. The content creator can choose which fields in the input elements are mapped to which fields in the output. Each input maps to exactly one output field.

 

 

Territory Management

Location Based Targeting in Align

Location Based Targeting is a form of sales planning that enables goals to be set against accounts at specific locations, enabling greater specificity in the planning process. Admins can enable Location Based Targeting in Enhanced Territory Feedback to allow end users to view these goals for accounts at specific locations.
