To access the Campaign form, on the OrderStream profile bar choose CRM and then Campaigns.
The CRM Campaign feature allows you to track the number referrals a customer has made and the revenues these referrals have generated. This will allow you to analyze referrals made by customers and enable you to issue credits or bonuses to reward applicable customers for these referrals. You are able to link campaigns to sales orders to track revenues and to purchase orders to keep track of costs associated to a campaign.
