Quick Entry - Automate Your Data Entry

How to use the Quick Add feature in Handle CRM to accelerate the data entry process.


Sales teams do a lot of tasks. Some of those tasks happen a lot. Handle’s Quick Entry Quick Add menu takes frequent tasks and makes them faster.

Quick Add lets you make a shortcut to any record or workflow, define your own rules and defaults, and allows you to pull in a Comment to start any action in your process.

Typical uses include logging a call, scheduling calls, or creating a new task.
