  7. EMM: Marketing Operations v9.1 New Feature – Multiple timezone support

  8. Timezone Support • BACKGROUND: The Marketing Operations (MO) application currently supports only a single time zone. This results in geographically distributed users not able to view date & timestamps on tasks, approvals, etc in their time zone. • SOLUTION: Incorporate multiple Time Zone Support in MO. • A single instance of MO will support multiple time zones • Configurable Time Zone setting available from Platform user settings page • Defaulted to server Time Zone value for new users • Users are able to configure their own timezone • Time displayed throughout MO is as per user’s preferred time zone • No upgrade needed for existing customers • Calendar controls work with dates as per user’s preferred time zone

  13. EMM: Marketing Operations v9.1 New Feature – Approval portlet 14

  14. Approval Portlet – Business Challenges This is a usability Enhancement. The current Approval Portlet and Approval List View is cumbersome. For casual users there is need to easily working with approvals. As the Reviewer/Approver I require the ability to access "Approvals Awaiting My Response" through a Dashboard Portlet. The Approval Portlet will resemble the "My Task" Portlet. The Approval Portlet will enable the Reviewer/Approver the ability to manager Approvals and access the Asset via the Mark-Up. Ability to approve “all” pending approvals by one click.

  15. Approval Portlet

  16. EMM: Marketing Operations v9.1 New Feature – Skip approval 17

  17. Steps to Skip Approval in Existing System

  18. Allow users to intuitively skip approvals • Currently Users need to start the Approval and then Cancel (this procedure will SKIP the Approval). This operation is confusing to users. • SKIP Approval experience is now enhanced to be simple 1 step process.

  19. EMM: Marketing Operations v9.1 New Feature – Label Modification 20

  20. Label Modification – for Plan, Program, Project • Value Proposition: This feature allows template creators to tailor attribute naming conventions and require or not require the applicable attributes. • Facilitate a way in the template for the creators to change the following properties of the standard attributes of Plan, Program and Objects. • Label of the attribute • Help tip of the attribute • Required • Not visible (do not display) • Changed labels/help view/edit modes as well as advanced searches and rule-builders tip and behavior will be applicable at the instance level. • The following standard attributes will be supported per object

  22. EMM: Marketing Operations v9.1 New Feature – Fill Down 23

  23. Our users find it cumbersome to have to re-enter basic data two times, once for the project and once for the campaign. We frequently also find errors due to the repeated, manual entry.

  24. Things to be aware of • If Marketing Operations, Campaign and eMessage are integrated….. • “Campaign - eMessage “ offer integration can also be achieved when the offer integration in MO is on , and also for the offers created from MO • The link on the MO offer allowing for the relationship to the eMessage asset is not present. • This can be achieved by going to eMessage Asset and then linking the MO offer.

  25. EMM: Marketing Operations v9.1 Installation & Upgrades

  26. Marketing Operations v9.1 installation process • Installer now provides links directly to the product's installation and upgrade guides, in either PDF or HTML formats.  • Installing the Integration Module • Starting in Marketing Operations, you must specifically install the IBM Marketing Operations Integration Services module. • Map configuration files Migration  • All map files will be moved to DB (tables uap_map_table and uap_map_column) • Messages from map files will be moved to ({planHome}/messages/com/ibm/umo/ext/UMOConfigurationMessages_{locale}.properties • Map XML configuration file (e.g. mo_creatives_map.xml) related to MO will not be created. The new configuration entries will be created in database and properties files will have new entries related to localization. 

  27. Marketing Operations v9.1 installation process : umodbsetup • The data base password stored in umo_jdbc.properties file located inside tools/bin folder will be encrypted at time of new installation or upgrade installation. • The umodbsetup.sh/bat tool is modified to have an option to encrypt existing password or change password and encrypt it • –E option: This option will encrypt exiting password. If exiting password is already encrypted the tool will skip this operation. This option can be used with automatic DB setup or manual.E.g : ./umodbsetup.sh –E –t full –L en_US – This will encrypt password before populating full DB ./umodbsetup.sh –E – This option will just encrypt the password • –P option: This option will allow system administrator to update exiting password located in umo_jdbc.properties file. This option will prompt user to enter new password.E.g: ./umodbsetup.sh –P – Prompt user to enter new password. • The tool will try to establish connection after encrypting new password.
