An enhancement has been made to SalesDuel that enables a tournament creator to quickly select all players who have a certain title and add them to a tournament.

When a user is creating a tournament, they can type a title at the top of the Add Players dialog, and, as a result, only players who have that title will appear for selection. At that point, the user can select individual players or they can select all of the players in a department who have the associated title by clicking the plus icon beside the department name (which adds only the filtered players as opposed to all of the players in the department).

Note: A player’s title in SalesDuel is the value that appears in the Occupation field on their user record in Bullhorn. If a user’s Occupation field is blank, SalesDuel will display “No Title” for that user.

An enhancement has been made to SalesDuel that enables users to create a new tournament by copying an existing tournament.

When a tournament is in progress, you can copy the tournament by accessing its properties and clicking the Copy Tournament link found at the bottom Edit Tournament dialog.

Additionally, when a tournament has ended you will notice a link to recreate the tournament at the bottom of the Tournament Recap dialog.

Upon receiving the latest release, the ability to copy tournaments will become available.

The Export As CSV action on the entities lists has been updated to export the Address field into its corresponding address parts. This affects the following entities and address fields:

Note: The fields listed below are identified by the field mapping name. Depending on your exact configuration, you may have a different label for these field mappings. To help you identify the field mapping name, see this article.

• Candidate, Contact, and Lead Primary and Secondary Address: when the primary or secondary address field is selected in the list, it will be exported in CSV as separate fields for the following field mappings: Address1, Address2, City, State. You also can add Zip/Postal Code and Country to the list to export these fields as well.
  
• Company Primary and Billing Address: when the primary or billing address fields are selected in the list, they will be exported in CSV as separate fields for the following field mappings: Address1, Address2, City, State, Zip/Postal Code, and/or Country.
• Job and Opportunity Address: when the address field is selected in the list, it will be exported in CSV as separate fields for the following field mappings: Address1, City, State/Province, Zip/Postal Code, and Country.

We have enhanced the error messaging when setting a Custom Date for the Response Times Job Card to let you know that a date range of greater than 1 year is not allowed. Upon receiving the latest release, the error messaging will be visible when adjusting the Custom Date range to greater than 1 year.

We have now added a feature to SalesDuel to display an auto refresh timer in the upper right-hand corner of the screen when TV Mode is being displayed. The timer indicates the next time the TV mode will refresh with the latest data. If you would like to refresh the data earlier than the indicated time, you can press the refresh button next to the timer. Upon receiving the latest release, users will see the timer appear when within the TV Mode of SalesDuel.

We have enhanced how SalesDuel handles timing. Previously, tournaments were ending on the morning of the last day of the tournament.

For example, if the tournament was set to end 14 January, the tournament would actually end at 11:59 PM on 13 January as opposed to 11:59 PM on 14 January. Upon receiving the latest release, tournaments will end at the close of the last day selected.

Additionally, SalesDuel previously would start and end all tournaments according to Eastern Standard Time. With the latest enhancement tournaments will start/end respecting the timezone of the computer or mobile device that was used to generate the tournament.

We have now added a feature to SalesDuel that enables users to click on a question mark icon on their tournament page to access a detailed guide that explains how points are calculated for that tournament. Upon receiving the latest release, users will begin to see the question mark icon appear on their tournament pages.

We have improved the mobile SalesDuel experience so that tournaments are much easier to work with and view on mobile devices. Upon receiving the latest release, users will be able to take advantage of the enhanced mobile experience.  

We have enhanced the tournament invitation email in SalesDuel that enables users to quickly invite all players in a specific tournament to join SalesDuel. Previously, users had to be added manually. Upon receiving the latest release, a button will appear allowing users to quickly invite all players to a specific tournament.

We have fixed an issue where when utilizing links included in email notifications about Submission updates the link would open a new session of Bullhorn instead of opening within the existing session.  Upon receiving the latest release links will open the corresponding record in the existing session.

We fixed an issue that occurs when applying filters to a task list, such as “My Tasks” or “My Departments Tasks”. This displays a user count on the Users drop down on the Task List and clearing the filter would result in still displaying the previous count. Now, after clearing filters, the User count gets reset correctly.

We fixed an issue that occurs upon a task due date being updated via the list view. The system was not correctly updating reminders sent out about the task after the change was made. Upon receiving the latest release this issue will be resolved and task reminders will update as expected.

We fixed an issue regarding the placement change request list where in attempting to filter the placement change request list by placement ID resulted in a blank list. Upon receiving the latest release this issue will be resolved and you will be able to filter the list by placement id.

We fixed an issue where after enabling the Starts & Ends dashboard card and changing the position of the Job column on the Placement List, the Placement List would not load data. Upon receiving the latest release this issue will be resolved and the Placement List will load as expected.

We fixed an issue wherein the “Response Times” Job dashboard card values for Time to Fill and Time to Submit were being calculated including jobs without submissions or placements. Upon receiving the latest release this issue will be resolved and jobs without any submissions or placements will be excluded from the calculations.

We fixed an issue wherein if an email address was entered into an email field on a record and that email address contained a leading or trailing space this would cause issues with mass mailing or composing a message within Bullhorn. Upon receiving the latest release this issue will be resolved and the system will ignore any leading or trailing spaces in the email fields.

We fixed an issue regarding fields with an edit type of either Select or Mini-Picker where these fields were displaying an incorrect value when the value should have appeared as blank. Instead the blank value would appear as the first value from the total list of available values. This appeared on Job and Company record overviews. Upon receiving the latest release this issue will be resolved and the fields now display correctly on their respective overviews.

We have fixed an issue where after pinning a record and switching between tabs (For example, switching between edit and activity) the blue pin color would get reset to black. Upon receiving the latest release this issue will be resolved and the pin color stays blue when switching between tabs on a pinned record.

We’re excited to announce the addition of TV View to SalesDuel! With TV View, we’ve optimized the display of SalesDuel standings and results for televisions and large screens. Customers can now maximize team visibility into SalesDuel activity using dedicated or shared displays.

When exporting any entity with business sectors, you are now presented with counts and details columns in the export. Additionally, an issue was resolved where an error was displayed when trying to export a Company with the billing address column included.

The Pulse tab is now the fastest way to prep for any meeting: Add the “Latest News” Card to see the latest headlines about the account. Click on any headline to go straight to the article. These news items are updated in real time and automatically displayed based on the company’s domain name. This is part of the Market Intelligence product offering; for more information, please contact your Account Executive.

We’ve made an enhancement to SalesDuel that allows a tournament administrator to add candidate-based scoring to a tournament. When configuring or editing a tournament, an administrator is now able track candidate-related activity by selecting the Candidates entity and then selecting the statuses for which they would like to track points. When the tournament is in progress, players receive the appropriate number of points when a candidate for whom they are the owner or secondary owner is moved into one of the configured statuses.

We’ve made an enhancement to SalesDuel that enables a tournament administrator to add job-based scoring to a tournament. When configuring or editing a tournament, an administrator is now able track job-related activity by selecting the Jobs entity and then selecting the statuses for which they would like to track points. When the tournament is in progress, players receive the appropriate number of points when a job for which they are the owner or secondary owner is moved into one of the configured statuses.

We’ve made an enhancement to SalesDuel that enables a tournament administrator to send a recap email upon completion of a tournament. The administrator can send the recap email by accessing a completed tournament and clicking the Send Full Recap Email button that appears on the resulting dialog.

When the administrator sends the email as part of a team-based tournament, the email is sent to all team owners as well as any player who is on a team (note that the email is not sent to players who did not get drafted). When the administrator sends the email as part of an individual-based tournament, the email is sent to every player who was added to the tournament, regardless of their level of participation.
The recap email includes information such as the name of the tournament, the user who won and the number of points they accrued, the user who is designated as the MVP and the statistic that earned them that designation, and the second and third runners up in the tournament. The email also includes a button that enables the reader to view the full tournament stats within SalesDuel.

You will now be directed to our new Customer Portal when selecting the Get Help button in Bullhorn. The Customer Portal will open within your Bullhorn application, and contains sections for Bullhorn Academy, Product Updates, and Feedback.

Bullhorn Brainstorm has been replaced with our new feedback form as part of our Customer Portal launch. Provide feedback directly to the Bullhorn Product team and check out recent suggestions from customers that we’ve recently implemented.

We’ve made an enhancement to the My Activity dashboard card (part of the Goals & Quotas functionality) to include a trend view for each of the weekly/monthly tracked recurring goals. You can access this new trend view for a specific goal by clicking on the name of the goal on the main view of the dashboard card, where you can see how you performed against the goal over the past 12 weeks or months.

You can now search by all of the following note-related fields when performing a Lead search using Additional Criteria:

• Note Author
• Note Comments
• Note Date Added

We’ve fixed the issue regarding extra line breaks being added when using Bullhorn’s email editor. Now, when using “Enter,” a single line break is added to an email. When using “Shift-Enter,” a paragraph break is added to the email.

As a major enhancement and complement to our Sales Quotas feature, with Activity Goals, you are now able to track just about any performance-related goal you can think of, taking advantage of both pre-configured goals (number of candidates, jobs, placements, and submissions added to the system) as well as create customized goals based on appointment and note types.

Note that, like the Sales Quotas feature, Activity Goals is available in Enterprise Edition only. If you’re already using Sales Quotas, Activity Goals will become available to you automatically. To request Sales Quotas and Activity Goals (collectively referred to as “Goals and Quotas”), contact Bullhorn Support.

You manage this information both on the Goals and Quotas list view and via the Sales Performance dashboard card, located both on My Dashboard and the Opportunity dashboard.

To enable this feature, contact Bullhorn Support. Note that this feature measures Quota performance against Opportunities and is available in Enterprise Edition only.

We have made an enhancement to note-related email notifications to include opportunity references in the subject and body of the emails.
When an opportunity is referenced in a note and you choose to send an email notification for the note, the ID number of the referenced opportunity now appears in the subject of the email, and a link to the opportunity record appears in the email body. If you reference multiple opportunities in the note, the email subject denotes that there are multiple references, and the email body contains links to all of the referenced records.

We’ve fixed the issue regarding the wrong status updating when you made inline edits on the Submission list.

You are now able to modify workflow icons via System Settings! Workflow icons display across the top of lead, candidate, contact, company, opportunity, and job records and represent the key stages of the entity’s lifecycle (e.g., Prescreen, Internal Submission, Client Submission, etc.)

After opening a record from a list, have you ever thought to yourself, “it would be great if I could go to the next record in the list without navigating back to the list.” Well, now you can! After opening a record from a list, you will see Previous and Next navigation links on the record page. The navigation links remember the list you opened the record from, and allows you to navigate through those records without returning to the list view.

As of this release, Previous/Next Navigation is available on Candidate, Company, Contact, and Lead records. More record types are coming soon!

We’ve enhanced the Flagged Emails card to allow you to view emails without a subject. Previously, if an email without a subject was flagged, you were unable to access the message from the Flagged Emails card because there was no hyperlinked subject line to click on. Now, the subject line for these emails display as (No subject) so that you can open them.

Candidates, contacts, and leads that receive a Bullhorn mass mailing now see information on how to unsubscribe more prominently (i.e., in a darker color) at the bottom of the email.

We’ve made an enhancement to Bullhorn for Mobile that allows you to access records by tapping on links in Bullhorn-related emails. Assuming you have your Default View on Mobile Device preference set to mobile, when you receive an email on your mobile device about, for example, a new candidate being added to the system, you can go directly to the candidate’s record in the mobile application by tapping on the associated link in the email.

Other examples include:

We’ve fixed the issue regarding email activity and merged records. Previously, when you merged two records in Bullhorn, email activity on the secondary record did not appear on the primary record after the merge was completed. Now, all email activity that took place on the secondary record displays correctly on the primary record.

We’ve fixed the issue with duplicate note creation (showing up both on the Notes tab and Last 10 Notes widget) when adding notes via Bullhorn for Mobile or Quick Note.

In the February release, we enhanced the Expected Close Date column for Opportunities to include more flexible filter/search criteria such as This Quarter, Last Quarter, This Month, Last Month, etc. In this release (April), we’ve added two new options, Next Month and Next Quarter, to the filter/search criteria.

Also, when performing an additional criteria search on the Expected Close Date column, you can now further refine your search by selecting a specific date or date range: Before, After, Equals, and Is Between.

To make it easier to add appointments using Bullhorn for Mobile, we’ve changed the required fields from Subject, Type, Date Begin, Date End, Location, and Description to only Subject and Date Begin (which matches the required fields when adding an appointment from the desktop application).

We are excited to announce our new Goals & Quotas feature, now in open beta! This new list view gives you the ability to set up quarterly quotas on a per-user basis, as well as monitor performance against those quotas so you can make adjustments throughout the quarter as necessary.

This feature also offers a new Sales Performance Dashboard card that displays total quota, revenue, and number of deals for the quarter, as well as the top 25 performing users.

Additionally, the upgraded editor is also now supported on the following devices/browsers:

• iPhone (iOS 8 or later) using Safari or Chrome.

• iPad (iOS 8 or later) using Safari or Chrome).

• Devices running the Android operating system (version 4.4.2 or later) using Chrome.

We’ve enhanced the internal user picker field to include more information about each user; so your colleagues are more easily identifiable. Now, in addition to first and last name, the picker includes the user’s title, location, email address, phone number, and primary department.

We’ve enhanced the Expected Close Date column for Opportunities with more flexible filter/search criteria in order to give you greater control when filtering/searching on that column. The new filter/search options are as follows: This Year, Last Year, This Quarter, Last Quarter, This Month, Last Month, This Week, Last Week.

These new options are available both on the column itself on the Opportunity list, as well as from the Expected Close Date additional criteria field on the Opportunity search. Note that this feature is available to clients with Enterprise Edition only.
