Conga Collaborate document buttons and the Conga Collaborate Document related list allow you to quickly generate documents and easily view which documents are associated with a particular Salesforce record.

Add the two standard Conga Collaborate buttons and the Conga Collaborate related list to your launching object page layout.

Due to legacy naming conventions, the related list is named “Octiv Documents” on the Opportunity, Account, Contact, Case, and Lead objects.

The two standard buttons have different purposes:

  • New Document - Creates a new Conga Collaborate document related to your launching record
  • Add Existing Document - Allows users to associate previously created Conga Collaborate documents with the particular record

The Conga Collaborate Document related list enables you to see all Conga Collaborate documents associated with a particular record. You can also edit and delete documents directly from the related list.
