Enrich leads
============
Automatic and manual enrichment
===============================
Enrichment of leads is based on the domain of the email address of the customer set on the lead.
There are two different ways that a lead can be enriched: *automatically* or *manually*.
Lead enrichment is based on the customer's email domain set on the lead. There are two different
ways that a lead can be enriched: *automatically* or *manually*.
Automatically enrich leads
--------------------------
During set up, if :guilabel:`Enrich all leads automatically` was selected on the *CRM*
:guilabel:`Settings` page, then no action needs to be taken by the user to enrich the lead. A
scheduled action runs automatically, every sixty minutes, and enrichment occurs on leads, after a
remote database is contacted.
On the *Settings* page, if *Enrich all leads automatically* was selected, no user action is required
to enrich the lead. Once every 60 minutes, a scheduled action contacts a remote database and
enriches any unenriched leads.
.. tip::
To access the cron that runs for the automatic lead enrichment, activate :ref:`developer mode
<developer-mode>`, and navigate to :menuselection:`Settings app --> Technical menu --> Automation
section --> Scheduled Actions`. In the :guilabel:`Search...` bar, type in `CRM`. Click into the
result labeled :guilabel:`CRM: enrich leads (IAP)`, and make any necessary adjustments. In the
:guilabel:`Execute Every` field, enter a value greater than, or equal to, five minutes.
.. example::
The following is an example of lead enrichment data that has been autocompleted successfully:
.. image:: lead_enrichment/lead-enrichment-data.png
:align: center
:alt: Chatter showing lead enrichment data.
To change the behind-the-scenes rules for automatic lead enrichment, activate :ref:`developer mode
<developer-mode>`. With developer mode active, type "scheduled actions" in the main Odoo dashboard
to bring up the :icon:`fa-search` :guilabel:`(Search for a menu)` screen. Click :guilabel:`Settings
/ Technical / Automation / Scheduled Actions` to navigate to the Scheduled Actions page. In the
search bar, type "enrich leads" and click the :guilabel:`CRM\: enrich leads IAP` action. From this
page, automatic lead enrichment can be changed, including the execution interval, priority, and
more. The minimum value for the :guilabel:`Execute Every` field is 5 minutes.
Manually enrich leads
---------------------
If the :guilabel:`Enrich leads on demand only` option was selected on the *CRM* :guilabel:`Settings`
page, when activating :guilabel:`Lead Enrichment`, each lead that a user wishes to enrich **must**
be manually enriched. This is achieved by clicking the :guilabel:`Enrich` button in the top menu of
the lead.
If *Lead Enrichment* is set to :guilabel:`Enrich leads on demand only`, leads must be manually
enriched. This is done by clicking the :guilabel:`Enrich` button in the lead's page top menu. This
retrieves the same information as automatic enrichment at the same cost (one credit per enrichment).
This method of enrichment is useful when not every lead needs to be enriched or when cost is an
issue.
The same information will be retrieved at the same :abbr:`IAP (In-App Puchase)` credit cost (one per
enrichment). This method of enrichment is useful when every lead does not need to be enriched, or
cost is an issue.
.. image:: lead_enrichment/manual-enrichment.png
:align: center
:alt: Manual enrich button feature highlighted on the CRM lead.
.. tip::
Manually enrich leads in bulk using the *list* view. First, navigate to :menuselection:`CRM app
--> Leads`, and click the list view button (:guilabel:`☰ (three horizontal lines)` icon). Next,
tick the checkboxes for the leads that should be manually enriched. Finally, click the
:guilabel:`⚙️ Action` icon, and select :guilabel:`Enrich` from the resulting drop-down menu. This
can also be achieved from the *My Pipeline* page. To do so, simply open the *CRM* app, or
navigate to :menuselection:`CRM app --> Sales --> My Pipeline`. Either route reveals leads and
opportunities on the :guilabel:`Pipeline` page.
Multiple leads can be manually enriched in a single step using the *list* view. First, navigate to
the :menuselection:`CRM app --> Leads`, then click the :icon:`fa-align-justify` :guilabel:`(List)`
button. Click the checkboxes for the leads that need manual enrichment. Finally, click the
:icon:`fa-cog` :guilabel:`(Actions)` icon, then select :guilabel:`Enrich` from the resulting
drop-down menu. Multiple leads can also be enriched at once from the *My Pipeline* and *Pipeline*
pages. To do so, open the **CRM** app. On the *My Pipeline* page, click the :icon:`fa-close`
:guilabel:`(Remove)` icon in the search bar to show the entire pipeline, if desired. Then click the
:icon:`fa-align-justify` :guilabel:`(List)` button to switch to the list view and select the leads
to enrich.
Pricing
=======
Lead enrichment is an In-App Purchase (IAP) feature, and each enriched lead costs one credit.
.. note::
See here for full pricing information: `Lead Generation by Odoo IAP
<https://iap.odoo.com/iap/in-app-services/273>`_.
Lead enrichment is an In-App Purchase (IAP) feature, and each enriched lead costs one credit. If the
database has no available credits, only the lead's website and logo are provided during enrichment.
Pricing information for credits can be found on the `Lead Generation
<https://iap.odoo.com/iap/in-app-services/167>`_ page.
To buy credits, navigate to :menuselection:`CRM app --> Configuration --> Settings`. In the
:guilabel:`Lead Generation` section, under the :guilabel:`Lead Enrichment` feature, click on

:guilabel:`Manage Service & Buy Credits`.

.. note::
Because credits are not interchangeable between IAP services, clicking the :guilabel:`Manage
Service & Buy Credits` link under the :guilabel:`Lead Mining` sub-header does **not** lead to a
web page where *Lead Enrichment* credits can be purchased.
Credits and balances may also be purchased by navigating to the :menuselection:`Settings app`. In
the :guilabel:`Contacts` section, under the :guilabel:`Odoo IAP` feature, click on :guilabel:`View
My Services`.
Credits may also be purchased by navigating to the :guilabel:`Settings` app and scrolling to the
:guilabel:`Contacts` section. Under the :guilabel:`Odoo IAP` feature, click :guilabel:`View My
Services`. From there, every active IAP service in the database can be viewed and credits can be
purchased by selecting one and clicking the :guilabel:`Buy Credit` link.
