How to configure Statement of Work (SoW) Templates

In this lesson we will cover:

- Creating the Statement of Work Template

- Setting the Details of the SoW

- Setting the SoW on the Opportunity

Creating the Statement of Work Template

To create a statement of work template, you can navigate to Configuration > Custom Objects > Custom Fields > search for the built out custom field named ‘CFDefaultStatementOfWork’:

This custom field has been configured to be a single selection drop down list.

The idea is to add the name of your SoW templates here and be able to select these names from the drop-down list on the opportunity:

Setting the Details of the SoW

Setting the SoW details will be found in Configuration > Tickets > Rules. Here you will be able to configure a ticket rule that when an SoW template name is selected on the opportunity, the outcome will fill out the SoW details.

Setting the criteria in the ticket rule:

Setting the outcome (SoW details) of the set criteria of the ticket rule:

Adding the Custom Fields to the Opportunity Type

Now that you have configured the SoW template and SoW rule, you will need to ensure that these fields are present on the opportunity type.

To add these fields, navigate to Configuration > Sales > Opportunity Types > desired opportunity > Edit > Field Lists > plus button at the bottom > Add ‘CFStatementOfWork’ and ‘CFDefaultStatementOfWork’:

Be sure to edit the visibility of these added fields by clicking the pencil icon and only making these fields visible for the agent ticket details screen. This ensures that the end user will not be able to use these fields, nor will agents on the new ticket screen:
