Custom Fields

What is a Custom Field

A Custom Field is a field that a customer wishes to add to MonetizeNow that is not used in MonetizeNow's internal logic.

Common Use Cases

Approval, validation, or conditional term logic on Quote

Example: A company wishes to include legal language on the Quote if a customer agrees to participate in a case study. If a customer does not agree to participate in a case study, the company wants the Head of Marketing to approve.

Solution:

  • Create a custom field called Case study opt in
  • Create a Conditional Term to insert legal language automatically when Case study opt in = TRUE
  • Create an Approval Rule to require Head of Marketing approval if Case study opt in = FALSE

Approval, validation, or conditional term logic on Quote with CRM data

Example: A company wishes to have different quote approvers depending on the segment (e.g. Enterprise, Mid-Market), which is a field in Salesforce CRM.

Solution:

  • Create a custom field called Segment with type of 'Single Line Text' on MonetizeNow Quote object
  • Set up Salesforce Field Mapping to map the Segment field from Salesforce Opportunity to the Segment custom field on MonetizeNow Quote
  • Create an Approval Rule(s) using the Segment custom field with different approvers depending on the segment
