bcm >> Link Opportunity to sent e-mail or folder?

by Qm91dGFuZw » Fri, 09 Mar 2007 04:00:43 GMT

Since many of my contacts generate more than one opportunity, I link my
e-mail to both opportunities and contacts. I use BCM 2003.

1) When sending an e-mail, is it possible to link the Opportunity from the
message window *before* you click Send? Having to sift through my Sent Items
folder after the fact re-opening & linking e-mail seems a bit asinine.

2) Failing a good answer to Q1, is there a way to drag the e-mail into an
appropriately-named folder and have the folder generate an auto-link to an
Opportunity?

3) Failing a good answer to Q2, can you link an item to an Opportunity
through VBA, and if so, how is this done? (Then, I could drag all of my items
into a folder, and run some code snippet to achieve the desired ends. I have
pretty good VBA skills.)

I track multiple opportunities per account, the opportunities basically
acting as project placeholders. Is there a way that emails can
automatically be linked to an opportunity?

Also, if an email has been linked to an opportunity I find the reply to
the email will not be (automatically) linked. Is that the expected
behaviour?

And finally, there indeed is (still) no way to link an email while
composing (versus going into the Sent folder and doing it from there) ?
