Email attachments are saved in an IFS folder and can be viewed from the Wintouch Activity Log. Web Forms – The Wintouch Administrator can create secure web forms using a simple, "drag-n-drop" user interface. These interactive forms are deployed on a Tomcat server enhancing a company’s static web site. Employees, customers, or business partners can access the forms to submit information to the CRM database, which then optionally prompts Wintouch users for further action. PDA access to Web Forms – When formatted for PDAs, web forms can be accessed by field reps, partners, even customers for orders, expense reports, surveys and more. The information is recorded in Wintouch and goes directly into integrated applications on the iSeries server. Customizable Web Portals – Branded with the customer’s logo and blending seamlessly with the look and feel of their corporate website, customizable portals enable customer profile updates, event registration or a shopping cart. Import Data Tool – With a "click of an icon," users can now import comma, semicolon, space or tab delimited prospect lists directly into Wintouch and schedule activities for sales representatives at the same time. A "drag-n-drop" wizard helps users map the imported data into the appropriate system or user-defined fields in Wintouch. MapQuest™Integration – With another "click of an icon" from the Account screen, Wintouch opens a new browser window with a map of the Account’s location.
