The client, a financial services organization, struggled with inefficiencies in their credit review process. Key details from Opportunities, Accounts, products, and Chatter were spread across Salesforce, forcing users to manually compile documents. This caused delays, inconsistent formatting, compliance risks when files weren’t properly stored, and occasional inaccuracies in critical data.
They needed an automated, reliable way to generate credit review documents. The solution had to save time, ensure consistent formatting, include Chatter for full context, automatically store files in Salesforce, and eliminate data inaccuracies to maintain a clear audit trail.
We introduced a Credit Document Automation framework within Salesforce. A one-click “Generate Document” button now compiles all Opportunity, Account, product, and Chatter data into a standardized Word document. Each file is auto-attached to Salesforce Files for compliance and also available for instant download.
