Business value

The Data validation capability that we are introducing as part of the LinkedIn integration will enable salespeople to stay up to date on the career movements of their contacts. They can use this information to quickly refine their deal strategies, assess new opportunities that might open up, and foster relevant engagement with their connections.

Feature details

For Microsoft Relationship Sales users with CRM sync enabled, the Data validation capability can be turned on from Admin Settings.

Once this feature is on, users will be notified of job changes of all of their owned contacts that are posted on LinkedIn. The organization chart capability of Dynamics 365 Sales will indicate all contacts with a recent job change and allow users to update their contact information within Dynamics 365 Sales.

Note

This feature is available in the Unified Interface only. This capability is available in Dynamics 365 Sales Enterprise and Dynamics 365 Sales Professional.
