Lead Activity – Export to Outlook
The Lead Activity – Export to Outlook is a view created by Tecsys that includes only the fields required to execute the Export to Outlook Appointments and Tasks functions on the Search Results/Grid page. The Details page includes all of the fields that are on the Lead Activity–Details page.
- Note: Because the primary purpose of the Lead Activity - Export to Outlook view is to allow you to Export Tasks and Appointment information for Leads to Outlook, you cannot edit any of the fields in the Results grid or on the Details page. If you wish to modify any of the fields for a record, you may do so using the Lead Activity view.
The following fields are available in the Account Activity - Export to Outlook view and are based on the order in which they appear in the grid on the search page:
