A Call guide is a single page of text that can be used as a prompt for points that could/should be raised during a call. Most often they are used for new employees or new clients you are working with. There is no limit to the number of Call guides that can be created.

To run a Call Guide: Open an Account from the Account List and click on the Call Guide button at the top:

When creating a new Call Guide you will use the WYSIWYG Editor.

You can copy and paste plain text from another application and you can include merges to automatically insert data from the Account that the user is currently in.

Available field names are the same as for documents, use the Merge fields drop-down.
