It even helps in the creation of new customers under a streamlined process. However, these new customers evolve from prospective customers which are known as Leads.

Once the customer starts showing interest in the product or service. They are converted to Opportunities.

The CRM solution tends to capture the customer visiting the website. Henceforth, making them a permanent customer.

Watch the video tutorial below to understand the module workflow better:

• The admin can mention the configurations for the mail.
• Auto lead creation from the wishlist, abandon cart and contact form.
• Additionally, the admin can state the time difference post which the wishlist and add cart product will be part of lead.
• Quick Assignment of leads to other users for systemized management.

• Recording of sources from where leads can be gathered.
• Quick quote sharing once the leads are converted to Opportunity to avoid delay.
• Customer Activity tracking to allow admin and user to generate more sales by convincing customer rightly by knowing their interests.

Note-

A cron is set for this module for the auto-creation of leads. Herein, the time duration will depend on the set cron.

Customers will get one zip folder and they have to extract the contents of the zip folder on their system.

Henceforth, the extracted folder has an src folder, inside the src folder you have the app folder. 

You need to transfer this app folder into the Magento2 root directory on the server as shown below.

After the successful installation, you have to run these commands in the Magento2 root directory:

First command –

php bin/magento setup:upgrade

Second Command –

php bin/magento setup:di:compile

Third Command –

php bin/magento setup:static-content:deploy 

Hence, after running the commands, you have to flush the cache. This is done from the Magento admin panel by navigating through->System->Cache management as shown below.

For the multilingual support, the admin will navigate through

Store->Configuration->General ->Locale Options

Then select the locale as German (the language into which admin wants to translate his store content).

If the user wants to translate their module from English to German.

Then they need to follow the path app/code/Webkul/CRM/i18n in their unzipped Magento 2 CRM folder and will get a CSV file with the name “en_US.csv”.

Now they will rename that CSV as “de_DE.csv” and translate all right side content after the comma in the German language.

After editing the CSV, save it and then upload it to the path app/code/Webkul/CRM/i18n where they have installed Magento2 on the server.

The module will get translated into the German Language. It supports both RTL and LTR languages.

The user can edit the CSV like the image below.

After the module installation, the admin will configure the module by following the path- Stores > Configuration > CRM Setting.
