Success Plans must be enabled by your Admin to display on the C360/R360 page. Success Plans help CSMs monitor and drive success with individual customers based on objectives and criteria that they define. Success Plans use a Call to Action (CTA) type called Objectives. Admins can create Success Plan templates with Objective CTAs and Playbooks that are mapped to the Objective. Success Plans may be composed of one or more Objective CTAs, and may include associated Tasks, either manually created or applied through Playbooks. For an overview of Success Plans, watch the video Intro to Success Plans.

To enable the Success Plans feature, Admins need to do the following steps:

Configure Success Plan Types

To Configure Success Plan Types:
  1. Navigate to Administration > Success Plans.  For every Success Plan type, you may customize the Plan Info layout page. Similarly, for every Success Plan type, you may create one or more templates for use with that plan type.

Plan Types

  1. Select Account or Relationship, depending on which one you want to create Success Plans for. (If you choose Relationship, you will be prompted to select a Relationship Type to associate the Success Plan configuration with.)
  2. Under Success Plan Type, click + Type to create new Success Plan types. Example types include Joint (to be shared with the customer), Internal, and Corporate. Note: plan types cannot be deleted once they’re in use within a Success Plan.
  3. In the New Success Plan Type window, enter the desired Name; then click Save & Configure Success Plan Info Layout for configuring the success plan info fields. You can also click on the pencil icon of an existing Success Plan Type to open the Success Plan Info Configuration page.

Note: For configuring Success Plan Info Layout, you must have 'Modify All Data' and ‘Customize Application’ permissions at the SFDC profile level.

6. Click the down arrow to Map Playbook to the Success Plan template.

Notes:

  • Mapping Playbooks with tasks are the only way to add tasks to a Success Plan. Playbooks cannot be edited in Success Plan configuration. Changes to Playbooks must be made in Cockpit > Playbooks, and then the changes will be reflected in the Success Plan template.

To make changes to the Template at any time, return to Success Plan Configuration > Success Plan Templates > and click the Edit (pencil icon).
