    Overview

    To help you quickly bring advanced analytics to your business and finance users, Zumzum has built a Tableau CRM Analytics Template.  If you have Tableau CRM licenses in your Salesforce environment and you have already installed Zumzum Financials from the AppExchange, then you will be able to download the Zumzum Financials Analytics Template extension package.

    Once you have installed the Zumzum Financials Analytics Template, you will need to assign a Zumzum Financials Analytics permission set to the Integration User that comes with your Tableau CRM.  You will need this permission set to ensure your integration user has access to the necessary Zumzum objects access to successfully run the provided dataflow and create your dataset.

    You will be able to create your own customised version of the Zumzum Financials Analytics App by following the Tableau CRM template wizard.
