Get the Revenue Grid Managed Package up and running

10 min read · For users on:


To enable the full scope of Revenue Grid features after installing the Solution, the local Salesforce Admin should install a special Revenue Grid Salesforce managed package that includes a number of auxiliary custom fields, classes, and other components.

In addition to providing auxiliary components, the managed package allows Revenue Grid controls to be integrated into the Salesforce user interface using Lightning Web Components and Named Credentials.

Note: This functionality is available only in Salesforce Lightning Experience and is not supported in Salesforce Classic.

The managed package is guaranteed to be secure, confidential, and free of malicious content under Revenue Grid Privacy & Security policies.

The package’s publisher, InvisibleCRM, is an old Revenue Grid brand.

Note

If the error “This package can’t be installed” occurred on the managed package installation to the Salesforce Professional Edition, refer to this article to learn how to handle the issue.

The extra features provided by the package

  1. The possibility to dock Revenue Grid Email Sidebar into a user’s Salesforce page, this way enabling various scenarios of convenient emails and calendar data handling directly from users’ Salesforce accounts.
  2. The package includes an extended set of custom object fields required for using the complete Revenue Grid Revenue Intelligence package .
  3. Direct and handy Salesforce reports access and use. With this component installed, the end users will be able to use a pre-configured set of Salesforce reports or customize reports to be used for their specific needs.

  4. For the Revenue Engagement users, the package allows to dock Revenue Engagement tabs straight into their Salesforce user interface.
