Tutorial: Create Report to Track Status of Success Plan Over Time

This tutorial explains how an administrator can create a report to track the status of a success plan over time. In this tutorial, we will create a success plan report using a data space. We will create a data space on the Call to Action object that can eventually be used to generate a report to track the status of a success plan. The report can be used to view the number of objectives that are being met by each customer.

Create the Data Space

  1. Navigate to Administration > Operations > Data Spaces.
  2. Click +DATA SPACE.

  5. You can view this report in the following ways:

       OR
