L TeleSales
d
e
ag Oracle TeleSales is an application designed for interaction center professionals, whether they
are inbound or outbound telesales agents. The application provides a versatile set of tools to
manage the sales cycle, from prospecting to booking orders. Oracle TeleSales offers a true
multi-channel selling and servicing solution that leverages all channels. The eBusiness Center
within Oracle TeleSales offers a complete cross-application tool for all Oracle call center
applications. The eBusiness Center provides elements of Service and Collections for an
unparalleled customer view. Key functions include contact, lead, opportunity, quote, and order
management; event registration and collateral fulfillment.
TeleSales agents use four main windows:
Universal Work Queue
Used to view a list of open leads, opportunities, and daily tasks. Actions, such as updating
an opportunity or converting a lead to an opportunity, can be performed in the Action
section of the window. The work queue serves as a launch pad for the rest of the
application. For example, select a lead to view and edit, click the Get Work button, and
the lead opens in the Lead Center, where you can work directly on the lead selected.
Oracle TeleSales
Chapter 4 - Page 5

eBusiness Center
Used as the central work area for Oracle TeleSales when a TeleSales Agent is on the
phone with a customer or prospect. Use it to create and manage customer and prospect
records, to send collateral, enroll customers in events, and launch the Oracle Quoting or
Oracle Order Management windows. The eBusiness Center also provides the ability to
quickly enter basic information for leads and opportunities.
When integrated with Oracle Advanced Outbound or Oracle Advanced Inbound, the
eBusiness Center is automated to dial the next call or take the next incoming call and
display the customer information immediately based on the automatic number ID.
Recording the results of the call can also be automated. Statistics for the current call and
number of calls for the day are available in the Interaction Wrap Up window.
Lead Center
Used to create new leads, manage the details of specific leads and update existing leads.
Opportunity Center
Used to create and manage individual opportunities. It includes managing the sales team
and partners for a specific opportunity. Additionally, a telesales agent can enter products a
prospect is interested in purchasing, forecast dates, partners, and sales credits for the sales
team.

Differences
Between Oracle TeleSales and Oracle Sales
L
d
e
ag Both Oracle Sales and Oracle TeleSales provide Administration screens that enable
administrators to set up the product. As the two products do not share Administration screens,
there are differences in the features and functionality available.
The following areas may require additional setup considerations:
Sales Methodology
Oracle Sales allows user to designate whether sales methodologies and stages apply to
leads, opportunities, or both, while in TeleSales sales methodologies and stages apply only
to opportunities. Therefore, Oracle TeleSales will expose only stages marked as applicable
to Opportunities. Existing stages created, including those created through the TeleSales
Administration user interface, will be treated as applicable to Opportunities only.
Sales Coach
Oracle Sales introduces the use of a Sales Coach, which helps guide a user through a sales
methodology stage. Oracle TeleSales does not use this functionality and will continue to
use Tasks tied to Sales Stages. Oracle Sales users can view the tasks created in Oracle
TeleSales. When creating a sales methodology in Oracle TeleSales, the administrator
should ensure that the Create tasks for all sales stages checkbox is not selected. If this
Copyright Oracle, 2007. All rights reserved.
Oracle TeleSales
Chapter 4 - Page 9
Unauthorized reproduction or distribution prohibited Copyright 2013, Oracle and/or its affiliates
checkbox is selected for a sales methodology whose stages use tasks, and the sales
methodology is assigned to an opportunity from Oracle Sales, the tasks are not visible in
Oracle TeleSales.
Sales Methodologies and Stages
In Oracle TeleSales, both stage and sales methodology are mandatory. In Oracle Sales,
they are conditionally mandatory - if the stage is specified, then the sales methodology
becomes mandatory. If the methodology is specified, then the sales stage becomes
mandatory, only if there is an applicable sales stage. Therefore, you must ensure that each
stage is associated with at least one sales methodology. Additionally, Oracle TeleSales
requires that at least one stage within each methodology is set up as applicable to
Opportunity.
Converting Leads to Opportunities
Oracle TeleSales enables any lead to be converted to an opportunity, regardless of status,
while Oracle Sales enables only leads in open status to be converted. Oracle TeleSales
enables multiple leads to be converted to the same opportunity by linking these leads to
the opportunity, and also enables opportunities to be linked to one or more leads.
When a lead is converted to an opportunity in Oracle Sales, the status is always Converted
To Opportunity. When a lead is converted to an opportunity in Oracle TeleSales, the status
and close reason are determined by the profile options, OS: Lead Link Status and OS:
Sales Lead Default Close Reason. Therefore, when Oracle TeleSales and Oracle Sales are
interoperating, these profile options should be set to Converted To Opportunity.
- Sales Methodologies and Sales Coaches
If a lead is in a sales stage that is applicable to opportunity, Oracle Sales will carry
any information entered in the sales coach over to the opportunity. If the lead is
converted through Oracle TeleSales, this information will not be carried over. If there
is no methodology or sales stage designated in the lead, the opportunity in Oracle
Sales will not have a methodology or sales stage, whereas Oracle TeleSales uses the
methodology and sales stage from the profile options, OS: Sales Methodology and
OS: Default Opportunity Sales Stage, which are both mandatory profile options.
- Sales Team
In Oracle Sales, the sales team for the lead is carried over to the opportunity, while in
Oracle TeleSales, whether or not the sales team is carried over is governed by the
profile option, OS: Lead to Opportunity Move Sales Team. Therefore, when Oracles
TeleSales and Oracle Sales are interoperating, this profile option must be set to Yes.
Role and Address in Sales Team
In Oracle TeleSales, when assigning a resource to an opportunity sales team, the user can
designate a role and address, thereby allowing the resource to be assigned to the same
sales team multiple times with different role-address combinations. Oracle Sales does not
support roles and addresses. This information will be viewable in Oracle Sales, but the
user will not be allowed to update the opportunity until the sales team assignments are
removed.

Note
If the profile, OS: Lead to Opportunity Move Sales Team is set to Yes, and a lead from
Oracle Sales is converted to an opportunity in Oracle TeleSales, there will be duplicate
resources on the Sales Team.
Customer Sales Team
Oracle Sales automatically adds the logged-in user to the customer sales team. In order for
the logged-in user in Oracle TeleSales to get be added to the customer sales team, you
must set the profile, OS: Always Add Creator to Customer Sales Team to Yes.
Rolling Forecast
Oracle Sales does not support the rolling forecast flag. Opportunities created in Oracle
Sales will not have the rolling forecast flag set.
Marketing Campaigns/Offers
Oracle TeleSales enables users to specify marketing campaigns and offers at both the
header and line levels, while Oracle Sales supports only header-level campaigns (not
offers). Additionally, in Oracle TeleSales there is a cross validation that ensures the offer
is associated with the selected campaign. If an opportunity with a header-level offer is
accessed in Oracle Sales, and the campaign is changed, the offer may no longer be valid.
To resolve this issue, the user can update the opportunity in Oracle TeleSales.

Further
L Differences Between Oracle TeleSales and Oracle Sales
d
e
ag The following further areas may require additional setup considerations:
Concurrent Updates
If an Oracle TeleSales user and Oracle Sales user are working on an opportunity at the
same time, the application detects the change made by the other person and prevents
overwriting. This behavior does not apply to leads, which can be overwritten.
Attachments
In Oracle TeleSales, the user can append attachments to tasks, addresses, notes, and
relationships; however, these attachments are not available in Oracle Sales. Attachments
for leads, opportunities, customers, and contacts that are added in Oracle TeleSales are
accessible in Oracle Sales, since Oracle Sales supports attachments in these areas.
However, if these attachments are added in any other category apart from the seeded Misc
category, they will not be visible in Oracle Sales. Through personalization, you must make
them available by enabling the category in the Attachment table for the lead, opportunity,
customer, or contact.
Oracle TeleSales
Chapter 4 - Page 14
Unauthorized reproduction or distribution prohibited Copyright 2013, Oracle and/or its affiliates
Incentive Compensation
In Oracle Sales, the sales representatives and sales manager can access only the
commission statement and no other areas of the Oracle Incentive Compensation
functionality. In Oracle TeleSales, the telesales agent can access other areas of Incentive
Compensation (for example, planning, income planner, compensation plan, and reports) in
addition to the commission statement.
Lead and Opportunity Currency
Oracle Sales supports all valid FND currencies. Oracle TeleSales supports only the
currencies defined in the Oracle TeleSales lookup type REPORTING_CURRENCY.
When selecting values for the REPORTING_CURRENCY lookup, you should select all
FND currencies that you are currently using for Oracle Sales.
Account Plans and Strategic Information
Account plans and strategic information are captured in Oracle Sales. However, this
information is not available in Oracle TeleSales.

Setup
L Interaction Tracking and Wrap-up
d
e
ag Interaction tracking records and maintains a viewable history of interactions with customers
such as calls, e-mails, creating and updating a lead, and so on. Following are the steps to enable
interaction tracking:
Set profile options that determine what activity records are recorded: collateral, customer,
event, lead, opportunity, query, service request, or task. (Collateral history requires that
you periodically run the concurrent program Interaction History Bulk Process to update
the history.)
Set defaults using additional profile options.
Automatic Interactions
Agents manually start and end interactions. You can also configure TeleSales to have
interactions start automatically when an agent opens a record and stop automatically when the
agent moves to a new record. Following are the steps to enable automatic interaction tracking:
Set OTS: Interactions-Enable Automatic Start to Yes.
Set OTS: Interactions-Start on Query to Yes if you want the interaction to start when the
agent displays a new record. Leave the default No setting to record an interaction only
when the agent creates, updates, or deletes a record.
Copyright Oracle, 2007. All rights reserved.
Oracle TeleSales
Chapter 4 - Page 18
Unauthorized reproduction or distribution prohibited Copyright 2013, Oracle and/or its affiliates
Set OTS: Interactions-Enable Change Activity to Yes to allow users in the wrap-up
window to change the recorded activities.
Leave OTS: Interactions-Enable Auto Wrap-up set to No to require agents to view the
wrap-up screen for each interaction and verify or change the outcome of the interaction.
Set to Yes to end the interaction without the agent seeing the wrap-up screen.
Simultaneous Interactions
Each center (eBusiness Center, Opportunity Center, Lead Center) can track only one
interaction at a time, but the agent can open additional centers and start interactions in each.
For example, an agent can open two Opportunity Centers and one eBusiness Center and start
interactions in all three. In order to track these interactions simultaneously, set the following
profile options:
OTS: Interactions Maximum multiple interactions: Set the maximum number of
simultaneous interactions.
OTS: Interactions: Prompt for Wrap-up: This is set to Yes by default. The agent is
prompted to decide whether to close the current interaction or leave it open while starting
the next interaction.
Wrap-Up
In the Interaction wrap-up window agents can select outcomes, reasons, and results. You
define what selections are available for each, and the valid combinations at the interaction and
activity level. You can specify whether an outcome requires a result, and a result requires a
reason.
You can also create default wrap-ups including campaign codes, outcomes, results, and
reasons. Then create action-activity type pairs and assign a default wrap-up to each pair. The
agent can accept the default or change the wrap-up information as needed.
See the Oracle Customer Interaction History Implementation Guide for more details on
creating the selection lists and defaults.
