Who Can See What? (AB Sales)

Visibility in AB Sales is workspace-based: every workspace member sees that workspace's whole pipeline, each workspace's data is isolated, and roles (Owner/Admin/Member) control management, not visibility.

Research with AI

Research with AI enriches a lead — finds its website, reads the homepage, and fills in a company summary, contact email, and suggested labels. It does not move the lead through the funnel.

Sending Email from AB Sales

How AB Sales sends email — in plain terms. It sends from your own company mailbox through Microsoft 365, set up once by your admin. Covers the sending identity, choosing a mailbox, templates, and deliverability.

Agents: CRM Automation

The Agent is the automation engine that finds missing websites, extracts contact emails from company pages, and sends a first-touch template email — on a 5-minute timer, with strict verification and daily caps. This article covers each stage, how to pause, and how to opt out a single lead.

Opportunities

An Opportunity is a specific deal in AB Sales — an amount, a close date, and a stage. Attached to a customer or a lead; win and convert it to turn a lead into a customer.

Contacts

A Contact is a person attached to a Lead or Customer in AB Sales. Adding a contact to a lead advances it to the Contact stage. One parent can carry many contacts — the buyer, the technical reviewer, the decision-maker.

Customers

A Customer is an established account in AB Sales — usually converted from a won lead. Customers carry multiple Contacts and Opportunities and can be archived without losing history.

Leads: Capturing and Qualifying Prospects

A Lead is a prospect you haven't yet established a relationship with. This article covers the status pipeline (New, Information filled, Contacted, Qualified, Disqualified), how the AI Get URL button works, and how leads get filled in manually or by the Agent.

MCP Tools Reference

Reference for the ActionBridge MCP tools that let AI assistants work with both AB Projects (tasks, documents) and AB Sales (leads, contacts, opportunities, customers) — every change recorded and posted to the linked Teams channel.

Teams Channel and Project Linking in AB Projects

Learn how AB Projects links each Microsoft Teams channel one-to-one with a project, and how membership follows the channel automatically — opening the tab syncs the whole roster, so members don't each need to visit to be added, assigned, or mentioned.

AI Support Features in AB Projects

What AI does in AB Projects today: an AI greeting on the dashboard, an AI summary and suggested subtasks on tasks, a Teams bot with commands plus conversational AI (1-on-1 and channel @mention), and MCP assistants — all with clear AI disclosure.

Who Can See What?

Visibility in AB Projects is membership-based: every project member sees all of the project's tasks, comments, subtasks, and history. Roles (Owner/Admin/Member) control management, not visibility — there is no private-task or read-only tier. Confidentiality is done via separate channels.

Editing Your Profile and Icon

Edit your AB Projects profile from the Settings tab: display name, profile icon, language, timezone, and email signature. Your name and icon are seeded from Microsoft 365 and appear in tasks, comments, mentions, and Teams Adaptive Cards.

Gantt Chart View and Timeline Tracking

Learn how the AB Projects Gantt view works: tasks with start/due dates shown as status-colored bars with progress, today and weekends highlighted, overdue styling, click to open the detail panel to change dates (logged with a reason), and filtering via the shared filter panel.

Daily Digest and AI Assistance

How AB Projects helps daily: a per-user digest of your top open tasks (email/Teams, in Settings → Task Reminders), an AI summary on each task, AI-suggested subtasks you confirm before creating, and MCP AI assistants with clear AI disclosure.

Installing the AB Projects Teams App

Learn how to install the AB Projects app in Microsoft Teams as a personal app or a channel tab. Includes the channel setup flow (create or link a project, project types), the included bot, and Microsoft SSO sign-in.

Managing Project Settings

Learn how to manage AB Projects project settings: name, description, icon, perma name, estimate unit, task workflow (statuses, types, environments), GitHub integration, the Microsoft Teams link, and ownership, leaving, and deletion.

Role-Based Access Control

Learn how roles work in AB Projects. Every member is an Owner, Admin, or Member; new members join as Member by default. Admin and Owner control members, the Teams link, and workflow configuration, all scoped per project.

Adding or Removing Members

Learn how members are added to and removed from an AB Projects project. Membership follows the connected Microsoft Teams channel: people auto-join when they open the tab, Owners/Admins can invite from the channel roster, and roles are Owner, Admin, and Member.

Understanding Projects and Teams

How projects and Microsoft Teams fit together in AB Projects: a project is a scoped workspace linked to one Teams channel, its members auto-synced from that channel, with Owner/Admin/Member roles. Users belong to many projects and switch via the Projects tab.

Setting Due Dates and Priorities

Set task priority, start dates, and due dates in AB Projects. Learn where dates and priority appear, how to edit them, and why changes ask for a reason.

Creating and Editing Tasks

Learn how to create, find, review, and edit tasks in AB Projects, including task fields, change reasons, comments, subtasks, linked documents, and reminders.
