Dealer Recommendation
Conceptuseradmin
Dealer Recommendation lets a Sales Rep formally introduce one or more Dealers/Distributors to the Processor contact on a Project or Project Lead, and track that introduction as a real record rather than an off-system email. It runs on the same underlying engine as Processor Recommendation — a map-based selection screen, a recommendation record, and a merge-field email — pointed at a different participant role.
How it works
- Launch the flow from a Project or Project Lead record. It loads a map of candidate Dealer accounts within a configured search radius.
- Select participants: the Processor contact who will receive the recommendation, and the Dealer account(s) being recommended.
- The flow creates an
Empfehlung__c(Recommendation) record and anEmpfehlung_Beteiligte__cjunction record for each recommended Dealer. - Any recommended Dealer that isn’t already a Participant on the project is added automatically, with the role configured in Baucore Setup → Recommendations →
Bet_Rolle. - An email is composed from a configured template — with merge fields for the Contact, the Project, and the Recommendation itself — and sent to the Processor.
