More Business Development Drop Down Options
Currently there is only 3 Biz Dev options in the drop down when adding activity: "meeting, phone, email".
There really needs to be more options. As an AE, I do A LOT of prospecting and am constantly adding activity, it would be great to have more buckets to categorize them. Ideas below:
-Social Media (which would refer to FB, IG, and LinkedIn)
-In Person or Drop-In (which would refer to a random in-person business drop in)
-Other (nice to have just in case there are one-off situations, like meeting someone in an air plane, at a networking event, at a…1 voteI have passed this along to your Success Manager and she should be in touch with your corporate team to discuss it. It's a customizable field that would impact all users in the system and is up to them on how it is used.
Thanks for reaching out!

Autofill client name in new activity window from same account activity window
When viewing an activity in a account profile and then wanting to add another activity from there, why doesn't the account profile name autofill? There have been times that I will find an activity in my calendar with no customer associated with it because I neglected to do reselect the client in the account search box (my bad, but could this be avoided?). If it isn't possible to do this, then could it be possible for the activity to be rejected because there is no name associated with it forcing you to do an account search before saving activity?
1 voteActivities added from the Account Profile will automatically fill in the Account name.
This must have been a bug at some point as that was always the original design and I just verified that it is currently doing this now.

The ability to "request" account ownership
Account Executives would be able to request ownership of an unclaimed account. Would make the process much easier on both account executives and managers who would have to manually move the accounts around.
0 votesSalespeople have this functionality today via the Prospecting link on the left. Search for specific accounts, accounts without recent billing in a specific category of business, accounts that are potentially churning. Once you find the account you're looking for you can request it be reassigned to you and the manager that oversees that outlet's decisions will be alerted to your request where they can approve or deny from the same Prospecting page.
Let us know how it works for you!

Call Tracker/Activity Tracker
Was curious if there was a way to implement a call tracker/account touch point tracker for daily recaps? (I want to see who my touches were for a day and the calls verified as being made/notes reflecting that, but there is no one place to click or view that recap). This way both can be pulled up easily or sorted by day or date cotacted without having to search each individual account. Then I can pull a day to see accounts, or if my manager wants to see or go over my day with me I can show them everything…

Instagram on Accounts
for contacts and accounts. Many businesses are using Instagram, especially to advertise. We should have a field for those URLS on both the advertiser, and the contact tab. There is an Istagram field on the contact but I think it would be better served on the Advertiser.
1 voteInstagram was added to Accounts. Thank you!
We will consider Pinterest if more interest is shown in the future.

If i have the business, Mobile, or home phone number entered, I'd like to see that on the contact profile page. This is particularly important for the pandemic times since many customers are not in the office where i would primarily reach them. They're either at home or reached via cell.

Ability to add Deals for a Quarter
Ability to add Deals for a Quarter Ex: $45,000 for Q4 2020 rather than breaking out each month of the quarter $10,000 October, $15,000 November & $20,000 for December
1 voteThis exists today as a Split amount on a deal. When entering yoru deals, be sure to use the menu option on the side and choose “Split” then select the months that you want example Oct, Nov, and Dec for Q4 and put in yoru total amount of say $45,000 instead of typing in each month individually. This will then split the amount evenly between the months.
Take notice, however, that this may have negative impact on how we reconcile a deal and may require you to take greater effort in manually zeroing out a deal as we reconcile monthly instead of quarterly (which we have a request to do as well).

Keep the information Grouped when Exporting Report
When exporting the report, the information does not stay grouped as it does when viewed in Matrix. For example, if I group Rev Types, it will be grouped in Matrix but when it is exported the totals are broken out into individual Rev Types.
1 voteThat’s exactly how our reporting works. We might need more information in order to understand this better if you are still experiencing an issue, but for instance when I run the Forecast Report and I choose to view by Revenue Types, Grouped, I can then see the grouped Revenue Types on Screen in the first hierarchy. I then export to Excel (not CSV, that intentionally flattens results), and my Revenue Types are still grouped.
If you are experiencing an issue with this, please reach out to our support team and we can lend you a hand. Maybe it’s a specific hierarchy that you’re choosing or a specific report, or maybe a data cleansing issue on the back end?
Thank you!

Matrix connect to Mobile phone
I would love for me to be able to make calls from my mobile phone out of matrix and have the activity logged.
1 voteWhen you dial out from our mobile solution and then hang up from your conversation, you’ll be back in Matrix with an Activity already loaded for you waiting for the details of the call. The contact, company, date, activity type, and a completed status…all of that is filled out for you and we just suggest adding your notes before saving.

Threshold for clearing extra pending
We are constantly struggling with extra pending remaining on deal that have otherwise reconciled because and order came in for less. It would be great if we could set a threshold where small leftover amounts were automatically cleared by the system instead of waiting for the user.
1 voteThis is now a feature in the product that we've noticed is starting to really cut down on unnecessary usage and we can't wait for everyone to try it out. Reach out to your Matrix Success Manager for more info and configuration options.

Activity List - Need the "Check" and the "X"
This is important because now you have to go into each actvity and complete activities one at a time. Each time you do this you have to sit and wait for the screen to reload. In old Matrix whenever something like this happened, you could just click complete and not have to wait for the screen to reload.
1 votethe Activity List has options to Complete and Delete from the menu on the right side. We’ve also done some significant retuning on performance so performing one of these actions take but a second or so for the list to refresh and you’re onto the next instead of navigating into each Activity Profile page.
Let us know how this feels and thanks for your feedback!
