Business Value

Sales teams often deal with large volumes of lead and contact data from sources like business cards, web forms, and scanned documents. Manually entering this information into Dynamics 365 Sales is time-consuming, error-prone, and takes away from high-value selling activities like engaging with customers and closing deals.

As part of Copilot’s form fill assistance initiatives, the form fill assist toolbar supports uploading of files, emails, and images, helping eliminate this manual data entry work. It uses AI to extract key details such as names, phone numbers, addresses, and company info from uploaded content, and intelligently maps them to the right fields in the sales form. This streamlines data entry, reduces errors, and helps you stay focused on selling.

Feature Details

As a seller, you can:

  • Use Files to upload supported file types (.txt, .docx, .csv, .pdf, .png, .jpg, .jpeg, .bmp) and get inline suggestions to fill out fields based on the file’s content.
  • Drag and drop a file or use the file selector button in the form fill assist toolbar to begin.
  • Hover over the file’s source tag to see which fields are suggested from that file.
  • Accept all suggestions at once using the “Accept All” button or clear them using the “Clear” or “Clear All” options.
  • Show or hide the form fill assist toolbar, access the Smart Paste button, and provide feedback using the more actions menu.

Business Value

As a sales team, you often spend a significant amount of time on manual data entry like copying information from emails, business cards, or web forms into your CRM. This not only eats into your day but also takes time away from high value selling activities like engaging with prospects and closing deals.

Smart paste helps eliminate that busywork. It uses AI to analyze what you've copied to your clipboard, identify key details, and automatically fill them into the right fields. Whether it's content from an email or a business card, smart paste updates the form for you, so all you need to do is review and save the lead or contact. It reduces manual effort, speeds up data entry, and keeps you focused on what matters most: selling.

Feature Details

As a seller, you can:

  • Use smart paste to automatically get inline field suggestions by copying relevant text or images to your clipboard.
  • Paste using the smart paste icon or the keyboard shortcut (Ctrl+V or Cmd+V) when no field is selected and let AI reason over the form and clipboard content to suggest field values.
  • Choose to accept or ignore suggestions, and continue editing the form as needed.
  • Paste directly into specific fields as usual by selecting the field first.

Business Value

Sales teams receive a wide variety of leads but often lack the capacity to handle them all effectively. Moreover, scaling operations, whether by expanding the team or streamlining processes, can be a daunting task, leading to overlooked opportunities and lost revenue.

The autonomous Sales Qualification Agent in Dynamics 365 Sales works nonstop to build a qualified pipeline and boost revenue. Once configured, it operates autonomously with minimal human oversight, continuously handling every lead with precision. By leveraging data from your CRM and external sources, the agent automatically researches each lead, intelligently sends personalized outreach emails, follows up with timely reminders, gauges buying intent, and eventually hands over only the most qualified leads to human sellers.

By freeing sellers to concentrate on closing deals, the agent boosts productivity, lowers operational costs, and maximizes overall team revenue.

Feature Details

You can customize the autonomous Sales Qualification Agent to seamlessly align with your specific business processes and sales strategies.

  • Precise lead targeting: Define specific filtering criteria to ensure the agent focuses exclusively on your desired leads. These could be leads from a particular geography, related to a specific product, or meeting a certain lead value threshold.
  • Intelligent research and synthesis: The agent automatically gathers and synthesizes key customer and account data from your CRM, public web sources, and existing copilot skills, providing crucial context for qualification and enabling sellers with deeper insights.
  • ICP-driven qualification: Establish detailed Ideal Customer Profile (ICP) criteria for the agent to accurately assess lead fit and prioritize high-potential prospects.
  • Knowledge-infused outreach: Configure the agent with access to your knowledge base, allowing it to automatically incorporate relevant testimonials, case studies, and other social proof into its outreach emails, enhancing credibility.
  • Automated follow-ups: Configure follow-up strategy such as time delay, frequency, and channels for the agent to follow up with prospects.
  • Informed prospect engagement: Equip the agent with knowledge sources to intelligently answer prospect questions about your product/service capabilities, features, maintenance, pricing, and more, ensuring accurate and timely responses.
  • Performance monitoring and analytics: Track the agent's effectiveness with clear metrics, including the number of leads engaged, emails sent, positive interactions, leads qualified, and overall pipeline contribution.
  • Supervisor oversight: Supervise the agent's activities, review its interactions, and easily intervene to provide guidance or resolve situations where it requires assistance, ensuring smooth operation and continuous improvement.

Business Value

This feature helps you stay on top of customer questions by providing auto-generated email drafts or autonomously sending responses with relevant answers from integrated knowledge sources. By reducing manual effort and ensuring consistent, high-quality replies, you can respond faster, improve accuracy, and focus on building stronger customer relationships—ultimately accelerating deal cycles and enhancing engagement.

By streamlining and automating email responses, this feature enhances efficiency, improves customer engagement, and ensures sellers provide well-informed, high-quality replies.

Feature Details

As an admin, you can:

  • Configure the SharePoint folders that act as your company's knowledge source.
  • Configure whether the agent can send the replies autonomously.

As a seller, you get high-quality, accurate email responses—either as drafts or sent autonomously by the agent:

  • The answers are pulled from the configured knowledge sources to ensure accuracy.
  • The agent intelligently identifies and includes relevant information in the response.
  • When configured, the agent can also autonomously send replies on your behalf, reducing turnaround time and manual effort.
  • If a customer asks for relevant references, the agent searches knowledge sources for matching social proof (for example, customer stories or case studies) and includes it in the reply.

Business Value

Marketing interactions, like attending a product demo or engaging with a targeted email campaign, are powerful signals of buying intent. For Dynamics 365 Sales customers using Customer Insights - Journeys, the Sales Qualification Agent automatically surfaces key insights from recent marketing activities such as email opens, link clicks, event registrations and attendance, and form submissions.

This seamlessly bridges the gap between marketing and sales without requiring customers to build and maintain a custom solution to extract, aggregate, and sync marketing engagement data into Dynamics 365 Sales, saving significant time and costs. This ensures sellers focus on the most valuable opportunities sooner and drive more personalized outreach and engagement.

Feature Details

As a seller, you can see the marketing insights from within the lead insights page. With these insights, you can gain deeper context for every lead, enabling more timely, relevant, and personalized engagement. For example, you can easily see if a lead recently attended a webinar and interacted with multiple product emails—all from within your sales workflow.

This feature is enabled by default for customers using both Dynamics 365 Sales and Customer Insights - Journeys.
