Welcome to the MGPforce Wiki
A guide for all things Salesforce.com and how we, at PIE, utilize it.

Purpose of this Wiki
On this page you will find a collection of guides and how-to's regarding our company-wide use of the Salesforce.com (SFDC) CRM. Each department has unique uses for this software and its components, so having a place where you can learn everything you need to know (and some neat tips and tricks to boot!) is our solution to that predicament.

There are a few basic features and uses that everyone needs to know. Beyond that you will find individual pages for each team.
