Setting Bookmarks in Classic Cycle Plans

  • Browser
  • iPad

Users often need to schedule calls against a predefined list of accounts or against a target list in their cycle plan. These filtered lists, which end users can create, are often reused during call planning. Bookmarks enable users to create and view saved sets of filter conditions and display configurations in My Schedule. Instead of rebuilding often-used filters and display configuration, users can consistently schedule calls based on a library of previously saved options. Bookmarks are applied at either the account or cycle plan level. Record types at the object level determine which type of data the bookmark applies to.

Users can save advanced Cycle Plan filter configurations as well as Account filter configurations. Optionally, bookmarks can be loaded via the API.

Browser users can create, edit, view, and apply Classic Cycle Plan bookmarks. iPad users can view and apply Classic Cycle Plan bookmarks.

This functionality is not supported in Lightning for My Schedule.

Ensure initial configuration is complete to use this functionality.
