What is an Event?

Events are used to manage and track CSR actions such as refunds, salvages, cancellations, fulfillment re-ships, revenue shares, chargebacks, QA performance and more. This allows each action to be traced back to the agent who performed it.

 

The OrangeEvent module enables the CRM administrator to regulate customer service activity by dictating which actions are allowed and when they can be performed. A customized set of pre-defined actions or “Events” will be presented as available options to users, based on the conditional rules established. Since each Event is pre-defined with its own unique set of rules, it will always reflect the true actions of your CSRs, guaranteeing accurate and reliable data! OrangeEvent is an effective management tool that puts you in control of customer care tasks, while providing a reliable way of recording and accurately reporting on such activity.

 

What is the Difference Between a Customer Event and a Master Event?

Customer Event

 

A Customer Event is an action or event performed by a CSR on a customer record or a transaction record.

 

CSRs can perform a Customer Event from the Actions menu on a customer record, from the OrangeEvent tab on a customer record or from the Actions menu on a transaction record. An example of each is shown below. For detailed instructions on each of these options, please see the section How to Perform a Customer Event on this page.

Master Event

 

A Master Event is where the predefined rules for a Customer Event are configured by the CRM administrator. An example is shown below.

 

 

OrangeCRM comes with a pre-installed set of default Master Events, which can be reconfigured or marked as Inactive according to your needs. For detailed instructions, please see the sections How to Configure a Master Event and How to Deactivate an Active Master Event on this page.

 

CSRs never have access to Master Event records. Administrator permissions are required to view and edit Master Events.

 

How To Create Revenue Share IDs

If you will be configuring any of your Master Events to use Revenue Share, you must first create a list of Revenue Share IDs. A Revenue Share ID identifies a person or company you will be paying revenue shares to. Revenue Share IDs and ACL Users are two different types of records that are managed separately. If you will not be using Revenue Share, you may skip this step and proceed with the following section on this page titled How To Configure a Master Event.

 

There are two ways to create a new Revenue Share ID, from an ACL User record or from the Events module. Both options are covered below.

 

Creating a New Revenue Share ID From an ACL User Record

 

To create a new Revenue Share ID from an ACL User record, hover over the Home menu and click on User Security.

 

 

 

A listing of all active ACL Users By Name will be displayed. Click on the pencil icon beside the ACL User record you want to create a Revenue Share ID for.

 

 

The ACL User record will open. Go to the Actions menu and click on New Revenue Share.

 

 

A new Revenue Share record will open.

 

 

Name

The Name field will be auto-populated with the name from the ACL User record.

 

Security (Optional)

If you wish to restrict this person's revenue shares to one particular program, you may use the Security drop down list to do so. Otherwise, leave this field blank.

 

Click the Save button in the upper right corner to save this new Revenue Share ID.

 

 

To double check that the new Revenue Share ID was successfully created, hover over the Events menu and click on Revenue Shares.

 

 

 

A listing of all existing Revenue Share IDs will be displayed. Check this list to make sure you see the name of the ACL User you just created a Revenue Share ID for.

 

 

 

Creating a New Revenue Share ID From the Events Module

 

To create a new Revenue Share ID from the Events module, hover over the Events menu and click on Revenue Shares.

 

 

A listing of all existing Revenue Share IDs will be displayed. Click on the New Revenue Share button in the upper right corner.

 

 

A new Revenue Share record will open.

 

 

Name

Enter the name of the person or company for this Revenue Share ID.

 

Security (Optional)

If you wish to restrict this person's revenue shares to one particular program, you may use the Security drop down list to do so. Otherwise, leave this field blank.

 

Click the Save button in the upper right corner to save this new Revenue Share ID.

 

 

To double check that the new Revenue Share ID was successfully created, refresh the Revenue Shares list by clicking on the Refresh button located in the top center of the page.

 

 

You should see the new Revenue Share ID in this list.

How To Perform a Customer Event

A Customer Event can be performed in one of the following three main ways:

 

  1. From the Actions menu on a customer record
  2. From the OrangeEvent tab on a customer record
  3. From the Actions menu on a transaction record

 

This section will provide instructions on how a Customer Event can be performed in each of the three main ways listed above.

 

1. Performing a Customer Event from the Actions Menu on a Customer Record

 

The following options in the Actions Menu of a customer record will trigger a Customer Event:

 

 

 

 

These actions are the most common types of Customer Events performed by basic CSRs. Each of these actions are covered below.

 

 

Customer Salvage

 

Customer Salvage events are used for common actions performed by basic CSRs, such as adjusting a customer's next bill date or changing a customer's billing plan.

 

To perform a Customer Salvage event, click on Customer Salvage in the customer record Actions menu.

 

A pop up box will prompt you to select which salvage event you want to perform on this customer.

 

 

Your CRM administrator is the one who determines which events will be made available to you in the Customer Salvage drop down list. If you do not see an option in the list that matches the event you need to perform, please contact your system admin to have the event added to the Customer Salvage Event list.

 

If you have selected an event that allows you to make a billing adjustment, you may be prompted to choose how many days or months to defer the next billing or choose which Billing Plan you want to change the customer to. See the examples shown below.

 

 

 

The Optional Recording ID field is typically left blank. However, your company may require you to enter the audio recording ID, your user ID or some other value in this field. Please follow your company's protocol in this regard.

 

Once you have finished making your selections, click Yes to proceed.

 

 

You should now see your new Customer Salvage Event listed in the OrangeEvent tab of the customer record.

 

 

If the Customer Salvage Event you performed involved a billing time adjustment, the Estimated Bill field will automatically recalculate the next billing date, allowing CSRs to immediately see the updated Estimated Bill Date and provide customers with the most up to date information.

 

 

 

Unlock Address

 

The Unlock Address event is used to view and/or update a customer's billing or shipping address in the Account tab of a customer record.

 

To perform an Unlock Address event, click on Unlock Address in the customer record Actions menu.

 

A pop up box will prompt you to select which address unlock event you want to perform on this customer.

 

 

 

Once you have made your selection, click Yes to proceed.

 

 

Now you may go to the Address tab on the customer record to view and/or update the customer's shipping or billing address.

 

 

 

When you are done updating the address, click on the Save button in the customer record.

 

You should now see your new Address Unlock Event listed in the OrangeEvent tab of the customer record.

 

 

 

Cancel Customer Account

 

The Cancel Customer Account event is used to stop all future billings and fulfillments.

 

To perform a Cancel Customer Account event, click on Cancel Customer Account in the customer record Actions menu.

 

A pop up box will prompt you to select which cancellation event you want to perform on this customer.

 

 

The Optional Recording ID field is typically left blank. However, your company may require you to enter the audio recording ID, your user ID or some other value in this field. Please follow your company's protocol in this regard.

 

Once you have made your selection, click Yes to proceed.

 

 

You should see that the customer Status has changed to CSR Canceled and your new cancellation event should be listed in the OrangeEvent tab of the customer record.

 

 

 

 

2. Performing a Customer Event from the OrangeEvent Tab on a Customer Record

 

Customer Events are less commonly performed from the OrangeEvent tab on a customer record. These events are typically used for special actions performed by advanced CSRs or managers, such as quality control or chargeback related events, which are not listed in the Customer Salvage event list.

 

To perform a Customer Event from the OrangeEvent tab of a customer record, click on the New Event button in the upper right corner.

 

 

A blank Customer Event form will open.

 

Click on the eyeglasses icon beside the Event Name field to select the Customer Event you want to perform.

 

 

A list of available Events will be displayed.

 

 

Double click on the Event you wish to select.

 

You should now see the selected event populated in the Event Name field.

 

If your company requires it, fill in the Record ID field with the audio recording ID, your user ID or any other value determined by your CRM administrator.

 

If your company requires it, select the appropriate Reason Code for this event.

 

In the Notes tab you may enter any details that need to be recorded about this particular event.

 

When you are done with the Customer Event, click the Save button.

 

You should now see your new Customer Event listed in the OrangeEvent tab of the customer record.

 

 

 

3. Performing a Customer Event from the Actions Menu on a Transaction Record

 

There are two options in the Actions Menu of a transaction record that will trigger a Customer Event: Immediate Decline Salvage and Refund Transaction. Both of these options are covered below.

 

 

 

Immediate Decline Salvage

 

The Immediate Decline Salvage event is used to send a previously declined transaction back to the bank for another processing attempt in real time.

 

To perform an Immediate Decline Salvage event, go to the transaction Actions menu and click on Immediate Decline Salvage.

 

A pop up box will prompt you to select which decline salvage event you want to perform on this transaction.

 

 

 

The Processing Merchant Bank field is typically left blank. It is only used in cases where you need to process the previously declined transaction through a different Merchant Bank than was used before. To select a Merchant Bank, click on the eyeglasses icon beside the Processing Merchant Bank field.

 

 

The New Credit Card Number and New Credit Card Expire Date fields are typically left blank. They are only used in cases where the customer has requested that you process the previously declined transaction on a new credit card.

 

New credit card details entered in the Immediate Decline Salvage pop up box will only apply to this individual transaction. If the customer wants the new credit card to be used on all future transactions, you must also update the payment info on the customer record by clicking on New Payment Info in the Actions menu of the customer record.

 

When you are done making your selections, click Yes to proceed with sending the previously declined transaction to the bank for another processing attempt in real time.

 

 

 

 

Refund Transaction

 

The Refund Transaction event is used to issue a refund on a capture or purchase transaction that is in Approved status.

 

To perform the Refund Transaction event, go to the transaction Actions menu and click on Refund Transaction.

 

A pop up box will prompt you to enter the dollar amount to be refunded and select the refund event you want to perform on this transaction.

 

 

Once you have made your selection, click Yes to proceed with issuing a refund on this transaction.

 

 

You should now see a new Refund transaction in On Hold status in the Transactions For Customer list.
