Subscribe to Salesforce

Subscribing to a Salesforce item or Chatter Following the item is beneficial: you know when and how important contacts, accounts, leads, opportunities, or custom modules are updated.

Subscribing in the old way means logging into Salesforce, searching for a specific record, and adding yourself to an Account Team or choosing to Chatter Follow that specific record. Some configuring is required in Salesforce.

The Riva Way. With Riva Insight, in one click, you can subscribe to a CRM record from within Outlook. When you see a record that you want to follow, you click next to the record. Next time you view the record in Riva Insight, you will be aware of the latest activities that pertain to that record. Some configuring is required in Salesforce and in Riva.
