Zoho CRM Dashboard & Reports Overview [Video]

Zoho CRM Tutorial Video #43 Today, we'll be discussing the Zoho CRM dashboard and reports overview.You could use the Reports module in Zoho CRM for tracking your company activity. There’s a list of system default reports available in this module, but you could also create custom reports. This is an example of the report pipeline by stages; you could see all deals pipeline groups by the stage, every account, every deal, closing date, probability, and total sum of amount. It is also possible to create a chart for some reports. When you build your report, you could select multiple modules; you could select a parent module, then additional child module, and even more. For example, you could see a report for all accounts with all invoices and all meetings inclusive or exclusive. An additional module in Zoho CRM is the analytics module. Here you could also check the system default dashboards, but also create your custom dashboard with different components. This is an example of lead conversion to the deal. So you could build a component where you could see the total number of leads, total number of leads converted into clients, number of deals created, deals won, and total conversion rate. It is also possible to create different kinds of analytics here. Charts, lists, and some other. That's it for today's Zoho CRM setup guide.______ BONUS !!!
