Key Achievement Generation

The Key Achievements section of account summaries has a unique focus on measuring success. To generate this content, AI analyzes your account’s recent activities and performance. It seeks major accomplishments based on objective KPIs that are On Track or Completed and show significant progress. Objective KPIs with a status of “Off Track”, “Not Started”, or “Blocked” are excluded. The final content details clear progress values, successful actions taken, demonstrated customer value, and positive relationship developments.

Generating an Account Summary

You can generate an account summary by clicking Generate Account Summary in the Actions panel on account record pages. For more information, see Generating an Account Summary.

Note:

To generate an account summary, the account must have at least one associated record.

Saving an Account Summary

You can save an account summary using the Save Account Summary action in the Generate Account Summary window. This enables you to revisit and reuse the summarized content at any time without having to regenerate it. For more information, see Generating an Account Summary.

Notes:

  • You can view saved summaries in the CS AI Summaries related list on account record pages.

  • You can edit saved summaries, but we recommend that you edit only the summary name and content.

  • We do not recommend creating CS AI summary records manually, outside the Generate Account Summary window.

Creating Expansion Opportunities from Account Summaries

You can create expansion opportunities from account summaries by clicking Create Expansion Opportunity in the Generate Account Summary window. This uses the summary’s suggested expansion opportunities to automatically populate your new expansion opportunity’s description. For more information, see Creating Expansion Opportunities.
