Adding the Kotis App to Contact or Lead Lightning Page

The process of adding the Kotis App will depend on how a specific client's org is set up and who the administrator intends to use the application. The Kotis app component can be added to both Contact and Lead record pages.

Example Kotis App Component Placement

1. On the App Launcher, select the Sales app

2. Click on the Contacts tab
3. Change your list view to "All Contact" and click on any contact record
4. On the top right, click on the Gear Icon > Edit Page

5. On the list of components available, at the bottom of the list, you'll find the Kotis Custom-Managed components. You can drag the "Kotis for Salesforce" component onto a Contact or Lead page.

6. Click "Save" on the top right of the App Builder interface. If this is the first time a page has been saved, it must be activated. This is often done by a Salesforce admin who knows which profiles to assign to the page.

A sample page assignment will be as follows:
5.1 - Click on "Activate"
5.2 - Click on "Assign as Org Default"

5.3 - Select "Desktop and phone", then click "Save"
5.4 - Click on "Activation..." again. This time, select "App Default"

5.5 - Click on "Assign as App Default". Select the "Sales" Lighting App and click Next

5.6 - Select "Desktop and phone", then click "Save"
5.7 - Click Save on the top right to save the Contact Record Page
5.8 - Click the "Back" arrow button on the top right to return to the contact record

The Kotis App should now display on the Contact record.


Adding the Kotis order related list to a Contact layout

The final step of configuring the Kotis App is to add the Kotis Order related list to the Contact layout so users can see the history of orders related to a contact. This is again a task often performed by an Admin to suit their org requirements.

1. Go to a contact record and click on the gear icon on the right > Edit Object
2. Click on Page Layouts > Contact Layout
3. In the items menu at the top of the layout editor, select "Related List"

4. Drag the "Kotis Orders" block to the Related Lists Section

5. Click on the wrench icon, select fields to display such as "Status" and "Kotis Order Number"
6. Save the Layout by clicking the "Save" button on the item menu at the top - next to "Quick Save"


That's it! The Kotis App is now available on the Contact layout and can be used to place orders for contacts. If you'd like to set up the app for Lead records, repeat the steps starting at "Example Kotis App Component Placement" but from the context of a Lead.
