Salesforce allows designation of individuals in your organization as solution managers. Typically, these people are product experts and are particularly gifted with communication skills and knowledgeable about products. In Salesforce solutions application, the administrator assigns these people to the Solution Manager Profile section of the Salesforce program.

What Are Solutions For?

Solutions are used to identify and solve customer issues. With the Salesforce system, issues can be categorized and solutions for them can be identified quickly. This is done by looking into existing knowledge and providing answers to customer issues that had been previously attended to and resolved. This can help in increasing productivity and customer satisfaction.

How to Create and Manage Solutions through Salesforce

Customizing Fields

If tracking information on solutions is needed, but the information is not provided by Salesforce by default, you may have to customize your solution fields. Customization involves the following steps:

• Plan – Know what customization changes are needed.
• Create Custom Fields – Identify the additional information needed to track for creating solutions.
• Customize Standard Status – You may have to change the field values of a solution Status. Change as you may deem necessary.
• Create Validation Rules – This is where you check if the solution meets your standards. If it does, then users can proceed to save it.
• Track Field History – Here you identify which solution fields you need to track for the purpose of assessing the performance of your solutions.

I rarely write any reviews, but I am compel to write due to the talented team of Cloudworks. These guys are amazing and in simple word they know what you want and how to do it quickly. Kudos to Souphien Akhrif !!!

Tanveer Abdul Latif Jameel

We have worked with Cloudworks for a couple of years now. Souphien directly implemented our Salesforce which was built from the ground up. He was an integral part of understanding the needs of our company and spent many hours understanding the need, building smart solutions and training staff on how to use. We run a complex multi-national, multi-product business, and Cloudworks were able to quickly understand the brief. Post implementation Souphien and Cloudworks were always available for follow up questions and queries, however small and never once did I hear 'that is outside of scope' - Cloudworks deliver on time every time. Specifically I recommend Souphien, who I remain impressed by his professionalism and business methodology.

Richard Shearer, CEO Tintra

This is our first engagement with Cloudworks. Souphien and his professional team handled the implementation from start to end efficiently. Their swift support in resolving issues is really appreciated. Looking forward to a long relationship.

On the first meeting itself Souphien had done all his homework and was quite well-versed regarding the scope of our business. Apart from that — Vishal the Salesforce expert, was always available on emails and would sit with us for hours to answer all our questions and come up with a solution for our problems. The proactive and timely approach from the Cloudworks team is definitely commendable. It still surprises us as to how they managed to execute such a challenging project in such a short span of time.
