CDMS Back Office

The "back office part of the TARGET system implements sales support functions. These are typically used by support and adminisrative personnel rather than salespeople. The backoffice has over 100 functions available, so we describe only a sample below.

Prospect Lists
The prospect list generator is one of the most powerful features of the TARGET system. It provides for selecting prospects based on types of equipment used, quote history, partial company/contact information,geography, and arbitrary selection codes assigned by the user. Once a list has been selected, it may be used for bulk faxing, printing labels, or assigning further codes.

Advertising
The advertising sub-system tracks advertising in publications, brochures, and on the Used Equipment Network. Equipment is automatically removed from advertising when sold or scrapped.

UEN Interface
TARGET features an automatic interface to the Used Equipment Network, the world's largest on-line database of used equipment and equipment dealers. Since TARGET, UEN and UED use the same category structure (and many of the same programs), listing style in consistent in all areas. Equipment available for sale can be kept up to date on UEN with a single menu choice.

Bulk Faxing
While not a separate menu choice, bulk faxing is available throughout the system. TARGET can manage up to 10 fax modems, each with a different schedule. This means that extra incoming phone lines can be used at night to supplement faxing capability without the cost of additional lines. delivery confirmation is optionally made to the prospect tracking system and automatic and on-demand reporting handles failures. Dialing rules (such as needing "1" on calls within the area code) are handled completely.

Area Code Updates
All TARGET users on the annual support program receive area code updates as they are released by the telephone companies. The system automatically corrects all the numbers that change.
