In Detail

Salesforce.com is the leading CRM platform. It offers cloud functionality even at the enterprise level. One of its most powerful features is the ability to build reports and dashboards without code and get a result in minutes. This feature is useful for multinational companies as well as small-scale ones.

Salesforce Reporting and Dashboards provides practical information for system administrators to understand, control, and manage permissions related to the report folder, report, and dashboard management. This book starts with an overview of the entire Salesforce technology and then moves on to the more important topics of allocating permissions and choosing the correct reports to improve efficiency.

The book then explores reports―creation, editing, navigation, and deletion. You will also learn which report is essential to which type of users. The next topic introduced is the dashboard feature, its main uses, and functionality.
