File Reporting

Report on files and their field values - something not currently available in Salesforce

This example looks for all Accounts where an opportunity has been set to Closed Won within the last fiscal quarter, that also have a file title with ‘MSA’ in it (we recommend using picklists in practice). The power here is that not only can you find Accounts in Compliance with your legal standards - you can quickly find Accounts that are OUT of compliance as well by switching to Records without documents.

Report

File Auditing and Compliance

Reports can be built to your exacting requirements and scheduled to run on your schedule. Scheduled reports produce Salesforce Platform Events that can be used to drive the behavior and activities required to keep your company in compliance.

Schedule Reports

Record Reports

Save a report and drop a component on a layout to help alert your users if documentation is missing.

Example Flow

Using Salesforce Flows you can create public links to add into emails. There are numerous reasons why providing links to content is preferrable to sending the files directly.

Flow Input

As an example requesting the files for an Account - Looping over the links and appending them to an email body.

Create a formula variable to format the results
