I think an option may be Related Action for a Record, but the best practice seems to me to be the Report.

For example,&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;- If you have a record for a customer and the competitors is something that everyone will want to see to tell that customer&amp;#39;s story, and not necessarily take action, then put it on the record dashboard&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;-&amp;nbsp;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;If you have a record for a customer and the competitors is something that NOT everyone will want to see&amp;nbsp;and doesn&amp;#39;t have a direct impact on that customer&amp;#39;s story, and not necessarily take action, then put it on a related dashboard&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;-&amp;nbsp; I would not recommend &amp;#39;hiding&amp;#39; that info in a process (related action) if people may want to see and that is it or need to see to determine if they should take action or not&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Hope that helps a bit&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: Customer RelationShip Management application</title><link>https://community.appian.com/thread/69766?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Mon, 07 Oct 2019 12:42:26 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">d3a83456-d57b-489c-a84c-4e8267bb592a:de520667-2679-4a90-a2ab-c3e4131c1a36</guid><dc:creator>Mike Schmitt</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;If you could provide a bit more detail into your use case (i.e. perhaps a specific example), we might be able to make better suggestions for you.&amp;nbsp; At the moment I&amp;#39;m not sure what, in particular, you mean by &amp;quot;provide information about competitors&amp;quot;, not knowing the starting point / context / &amp;quot;information&amp;quot; in question / who it might be going to / what it might be intended to be used for, etc.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
