Setting up processes
You need the Admin or Manager role for this part.
7. Plan your process
Make three choices before you build. Changing them later is possible but can reshuffle work already recorded.
Recurring or one-off?
|
|
Recurring | One-off |
|---|---|---|
| Timing | Same calendar period for everyone (month, quarter, half year, year, or fiscal variants) | Each customer's own window of 30, 60, 90 or 1–365 days, from the day they join |
| Use for | Ongoing work: QBRs, check-ins | Programs: onboarding, renewal, rescue plans |
Which segment? Customers join and leave automatically as they match the segment (checked hourly). You can't add customers by hand.
How often? Frequency is the number of times per cycle. The maximum is once a month (e.g. 3 in a quarter), or once per 30 days in a one-off.
8. Create activities
In the process builder, click New activity in the library on the left.
- General: name, a one- or two-sentence description, a category (Engagement, Commercial or Value) and an impact level (Low 1, Medium 2, High 3 points).
- Detection: choose Detect automatically (the AI looks for evidence in emails, calls, meetings and notes) or Complete manually. For automatic detection, review the drafted prompt and decide on Auto-transition: on completes immediately; off sends a suggestion for approval.
- Actions: pick the actions to recommend in the activity panel.
Tips
- Describe evidence, not goals: "customer confirmed in writing they will renew", not "renewal secured".
- Say what doesn't count, e.g. "a meeting invite alone is not enough".
- Turn Auto-transition off for high-value or judgement-based activities.
- Editing an activity changes it in every process that uses it. Need a variant? Create a new activity.
9. Build and publish
- On the Processes page, click Create a process.
- Pick a template or Start from scratch, then set the name, cycle and segment.
- Add activities from the library. For each, set the frequency and an optional reminder (7, 14 or 30 days before the end or after the start of each period).
- Check the timeline on the right, then click Publish process.
Drafts save automatically and track nothing until published. A recurring process published mid-period runs to the end of that period.
| Template | Cycle | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| Onboarding | One-off, 90 days | New customers |
| Renewal | One-off, 90 days | Customers nearing contract end |
| High-touch | Quarterly | Strategic accounts |
| Mid-touch | Bi-annual | Mid-sized accounts |
| Low-touch | Annual | Long-tail accounts |
10. Change or delete a process
Open a published process from the All tab, make changes and click Save changes.
| Change | Effect |
|---|---|
| Rename, add or remove activities | Immediate; recorded completions and points are kept |
| Segment | Applied at the next hourly check |
| Cycle | The running cycle moves to the new window |
| Frequency | Rebuilds the occurrence grid; avoid on a running process |
If a lower frequency leaves no room for existing completions, they are set aside and restored if you raise it again. Set-aside completions don't count towards progress or points.
Deleting a process (row menu on the All tab) removes it and its points from the ranking; history and activities are kept. Deleting an activity removes it from every process; recorded statuses are kept.
