Add the Up next widget to forms

Completed

The Up next widget helps sellers view and perform activities on a record without losing context or needing to switch among multiple applications. The activities include phone calls, email, or Microsoft Teams meetings. The widget displays the current activity, upcoming activity, and completed activities. You can manually add the activities to a record, or you can use a sequence:

  • In a sequence, a sales manager creates activities and applies them to the record according to business requirements. The activities in the sequence are displayed in the Up next widget.

  • For manual activities, you or a sales manager can create an activity on the timeline. The activity is displayed in the Up next widget as a current, upcoming, or completed activity, depending on its due date. This activity is available to you and other sellers who have access to the record.
