| Create Activity
|
To create activities in the Activity Manager when you generate the report, select this check box.
DPS displays the Activity dialog box so that you can enter information about the activity, including its type (email, phone call, meeting, touchpoint, and so on), primary contact, and date/time.
DPS creates an activity for each record included on the report.
Use this feature to create a record that an activity related to the report has taken place for the contacts included on the report. For example, if you print a list report for contacts to send to a mailing service that will send out holiday greetings from your company, you can select this option to create an activity for each recipient. The following year, you can use those activity records to generate a list of the previous recipients as a starting point for the current holiday mailing.
