3 RingCentral for Microsoft Dynamics CRM User Guide Introduction/Capabilities Introduction Microsoft Dynamics CRM is a business solution to help develop leads, nurture contacts, track sales, and manage customers. Microsoft stated in 2015 that they had 4.4 million users of Microsoft Dynamics CRM in 40,000+ companies.

Capabilities No software to install works entirely in the cloud with any RingCentral device. Works on any computer, any browser; access anytime on any PC or Mac. Works with Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2016 and above. 1. Easy click-to-dial/click-to-sms on any phone number in the CRM. 2. Instant screen pop displays the caller s info as each call arrives. 3. Automatic call dispositions for quick call logging. 4. Accurate call/sms logs saved to the corresponding record. Click to Dial Phone numbers in MS Dynamics CRM 365 are clickable. When clicked, these numbers can initiate a dial in one of two ways: 1. Call with Desktop app: the RC desktop app will be brought out to make the call. 2. RingOut: RingCentral offers an API called RingOut which dials the user first at a specified phone number and then calls the remote party. Screen Pop Incoming calls will enable a Caller ID search in Microsoft Dynamics for matching numbers in the Account/Contact/Lead record with any of its phone number fields. For example, a call from 650-555-6276 should cause the screen to pop to the Create Activity page for that record. In the event of multiple matches, the screen will pop to the Microsoft Dynamics global search page, with the phone number pre-populated in the search box and initiated a search. In the event that there are no matches, the user should be able to create Activity without linking it to any Dynamics entity. Example Microsoft Dynamics CRM Global Search Page Call Logging Calls will be logged as Activities in MS Dynamics CRM and can be filtered out using the Start Date field.
