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.
CRM Settings
Everything you can configure in the CRM Settings page — automation enable/disable, mail provider, shared mailbox vs user principal, daily email cap, Teams notification channel, and HTML email templates with placeholders.
Opportunities
An Opportunity is a specific deal — an amount, a close date, and a stage. Attached to a Customer (or sometimes a Lead). Tracks the money side of the relationship.
Contacts
A Contact is a person attached to either a Customer or a Lead in AB Sales Management Service. One parent can carry multiple contacts — the buyer, the technical reviewer, the decision-maker.
Customers
A Customer is an established account in AB Sales Management Service — typically promoted from a qualified Lead. Customers can carry multiple Contacts and Opportunities.
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.

I Can't See My Tasks
Tasks not showing in AB Projects? Work through project selection, the filter panel (completed/omitted hidden by default and remembered), the List/Gantt/Kanban views (Gantt needs dates), Teams-channel membership sync, and reloading.
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.
Adaptive Cards and Task Previews
Learn how AB Projects posts Microsoft Teams Adaptive Cards for every comment and every task change. Cards show priority, dates, a change diff, progress, status, assignee, counts, and an Open button, and replies sync back to the task.

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.

Inviting Team Members via Microsoft Teams
