Enhance Your Offer Doc with Beautiful Product Pictures – Easy as ABC

We like the content of our customer documents short and sweet, so it can be learned as quickly as possible. Yet every detail that matters needs to be included.

We like the content of our customer documents short and sweet, so it can be learned as quickly as possible. Yet every detail that matters needs to be included. And we like to give the documents we send out a nice, professional look and feel, don’t we?

One way to make our quotation documents a bit more attractive is to add a picture of each product offered in them. This may even help to save those proverbial thousand words – quite many at least.

With Documill Dynamo, doing such thing is as easy as your ABC, especially if

  • you are using the standard Salesforce objects for storing the data featured in our sample document template
  • you have your product pictures added as related files to the products in the standard product catalog.

But if you have the pictures and the necessary data saved somewhere else in Salesforce, don’t worry. Mapping them to the appropriate field is still very easy with Documill Dynamo.

Would you like to make the template complete and available in Salesforce for users? To do this, you need to add some missing details (like your company HQ address and logo in the header) and adjust some settings in Salesforce. Just follow the steps in this article, while continuing to use the template you are using now (Quotation template with product images), instead of Simple Quotation template suggested in the article. An example of a final result is shown in the figure below.
