Sales Rep's needs to perform various activities in order to close a Deal during its final stages. Whenever a Deal has been closed and marked as Won there are sets of actions that are needed to be performed by different verticals of employees.
Remembering and executing these Activities manually is a tedious task, hence Salesmate has come up with the possibility to have an activity triggered when a deal is marked 'Won' using Salesmate Workflows.
Here is an Article and steps to help you through the process of setting up your workflow once the status of the deal is changed to WON:
- Navigate to Profile Icon from top right corner.
- Click on the Setup Section
- Head over to the Sales Automation section
- Click on Workflow Management
- Add a Workflow - Create a "New Rule"
Workflow :
1. Basic Information
Module: Deal
Rule Name: Create Activity when a Deal is marked as WON ( You can provide any rule name, which helps you to understand flow)
Rule Description: Create Activity when a Deal status is changed to WON (Any description, which helps you to understand your flow afterward)
Click Next

Estimated Close Date select plus as operator and specify the integer number as the Due date in case of Activity to be performed after a certain period of time.
Note:
- Do not select the owner if you want the Deal owner to be the owner of the activity

- If you select plus 0, then it will be assigned right away and marked to be completed on the same date.
- If you add 2, it will be assigned right away and marked to completed in next 2 days.

Other Information:
- Add teammates, participants, and activity descriptions as per your requirement.
- Select owner if you want to assign it to a particular user, in case you have more members in your team, to whom you want to assign it.
- If the owner field is left blank, the task is assigned to the user who has updated the deal stage.
