When we talk about workflow within our CRM systems, we commonly talk about cases, subcases, part requests, etc. But every queueable object within our Clarify/Dovetail system can have its own workflow. Including Solutions. Many people don’t think about a workflow around their knowledge. I wanted to touch on this, and show an example of a business ...

We received a request recently about how to deal with some text in the system that was formatted using a fixed width font.
For example, a customer might send in an email that contained some text that was laid out in a nicely formatted table structure. Such as this: ...

I was talking to a customer today, and they asked me about how to notify additional people when a commitment expires.

It is integrated within Dovetail Agent, Dovetail SelfService, and Dovetail Mobile Agent. Kevin also demonstrated how to incorporate it into your own applications (his particular example was integrating Seeker with an ASP.NET ...

Recently I had the need to consume JSON in ClearBasic.
For example, I make a request to a web service, and the service returns a result set in JSON format. I want to display those results within Clarify. JSON JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) is a lightweight data-interchange format. JSON is a pretty popular data transfer format, especially for ...

I recently responded to a question about adding a Save button to the CR (Change Request) form in Clarify. Dusting off my Clarify knowledge, I gave some details about how to simply copy the Save button from the Additional Features form. I'm sure not everyone knows about these forms.
