Add Up Window – User Guide for Internal and External Stakeholders

Overview

The Add Up window provides salespeople and managers with a streamlined way to search for customer/prospect details, understand the most recent traffic activity, and take the correct next action based on First Visit, Be-Back, or Terminal Status criteria. This redesigned experience makes it significantly easier to evaluate traffic history at a glance and ensures that users take the correct action without navigating multiple windows.

The Add Up window contains three primary sections:

  1. Customer/Prospect Record(s)

  2. Most Recent Traffic

  3. Add Up Options

Customer/Prospect Record(s)

When a salesperson searches for a customer/prospect using the Add Up window, the first section displays all relevant profile information in a clean card layout. Each card contains:

  • Customer Name with link to profile

  • Email Address

  • Home Phone Number

  • Cell Phone Number

  • Work Phone Number

  • Address

  • Current Assigned Salesperson

  • TAG Vehicles Icon (clickable if vehicles exist)

  • DealerMine ID + DM Logo

  • Customer ID + DMS Logo (if applicable)

Most Recent Traffic

The middle section of the Add Up window summarizes the most recent traffic entry:

  • Vehicle of Interest

  • Next Scheduled Follow-Up

  • Salesperson on Traffic

  • Entered Date/Time

  • Status Changed Date/Time

  • Steps to the Sale Pie Chart (clickable)

  • Traffic Type Tag

  • Current Status Tag

  • Worksheet Icon with count (clickable)

  • Showroom History Icon

  • Be-Back Count

  • Age of Traffic Log Entry

Terminal Status Handling

If the traffic is terminal, the system displays a clear message explaining that a new visit cannot be logged.

A Terminal Status is a Traffic Log Status that indicates the end of a customer's current buying journey. Terminal statuses prevent new First Visits or Be-Backs from being added. Users will instead begin a clean buying cycle using the New Traffic button.

More information on Terminal Status Handling can be found here:

Outside First Visit / Be-Back Criteria

If the traffic is older than the configured timeframe (e.g., 60 days), the system explains why a new First Visit is allowed.

Add Up Options

  • Buttons appear dynamically based on:

  • First Visit criteria

  • Be-Back criteria

  • Terminal Status

  • Age of traffic

  • Traffic type

Possible actions include:

  • Log First Visit Traffic

  • Log First Visit Worksheet

  • Log Be-Back Traffic

  • Log Be-Back Worksheet

  • Log New Traffic

  • Create New Prospect

Create New Prospect Button

Selecting this launches the Add Prospect popup. Add to Traffic Log follows configuration:

  • Checked if globally enabled

  • Unchecked if disabled

  • If manually checked, 5 dropdowns populate automatically
