Restrict the use of Word Template (opportunities) based on contents of the record

Posted on by 65

Hello,

I have been asked if it is possible to stop our Sales People from using Template 'x' unless the Opportunity Type = 'a'.

I understand I can restrict the Templates with Security Roles but that is on a yes / no per template and is not related to what information is in the record it is trying to generate from. I have a feeling what I am being asked for is not possible but thought I would ask!

Scenario:

Opportunity type = a: user can export template x

Oppotunity type = b: user is unable to export template x

I hope that helps explain what I am after.

    Hello Jess,

    Word templates do not include that security granularity by default, you can control from a security role if a user can view or not templates but that setting will apply to all the published templates.

    Please review this info:
