Function documentationFact Sheets

 

A fact sheet provides you with a condensed overview of an account, based on several sources such as master data, statistical data, and transaction data. This data is retrieved from SAP CRM, SAP ERP, and SAP Business Warehouse (BW). Fact sheets enable you to see quickly and easily the most important details of your key customers.

Using fact sheets, you can retrieve essential information quickly, for example, when interacting with customers on the phone or preparing a sale meeting. A PDF version provides a summary of critical information that can be used in situations where mobile access to SAP CRM is not available.

Prerequisites

A preconfigured fact sheet is delivered and can be changed if necessary. For more information, see the generic description of fact sheets in the WebClient UI:
