Using Composer Lightning Component
This topic describes the use case for generating a document using the Composer Lightning Component.
This use case gives one example of how to generate a Client Welcome Letter using the Composer Lightning Component. You might use this functionality differently to generate different documents depending on your business case. Contact your administrator to configure the Composer Solutions as per your business use case.
For example, you (sales representative) are sending out new client welcome letters to every customer. These are often the same copy and pasted documents with some slight changes for personalization. The administrator (Sales Operations Manager) of your company always looking for ways to speed up and simplify the sales process, so he automates this process and builds a Composer Solution so that you can generate a welcome letter for new accounts directly from the Salesforce using Composer Lightning Component.
The administrator can configure the solution in the following two ways as per the business use case to generate the document and send it via email:
- Provide selections, such as which template to use for the final merged files or other options to streamline the process.
- Run the solution in background mode, which means with a single button click, the document will be generated according to the predetermined output method, behind the scenes. (For this, you only need to click the button, the rest of the process runs in the background and the document or email template is automatically merged and delivered in the desired manner. Because the user interface is skipped, you are not able to choose templates, output file options, or activity logging options. Instead, the administrator pre-defines these options in the Conga Composer solution using parameters.)
