Adding documents to your Sertifi folder in Salesforce

In Salesforce Lightning and Salesforce Classic, you can create folders to store your document templates for easy access when creating your documents in Sertifi. When you add your templates to your Sertifi folder, you can quickly add these documents to your contracts through the Sertifi sending wizard.

Create the Document Folder
  1. Ensure you're in Salesforce Classic.

  2. Click the plus icon (+) from the home page.

  3. Click Documents.

  4. If you have proper permissions, you will see a section called Document Folders.

  5. Click Create New Folder

  6. Fill out the label and name for the folder. We recommend naming it Sertifi for easy access, as well as setting the folder access to read only, and enabling the folder to be accessible by all users. If your organization requires stricter sharing rules, ensure all users that will use Sertifi also have access to the Document Folder. Click Save.
