  1. What is the recommended strategy for producing Vlocity DocGen documents in multiple languages for different customer locales?

    Answer: Create separate DOCX template files for each language and select the appropriate one at runtime

    The recommended approach is to maintain a dedicated DOCX template per language, providing full control over translated text and locale-specific formatting, then select the correct template based on user language preference.

  2. When a Vlocity DocGen Template is triggered from a Salesforce Flow, which invocation mechanism is most commonly used?

    Answer: An Invocable Action exposed by the Vlocity DocGen framework

    Vlocity exposes DocGen Template execution as an Invocable Action, allowing Salesforce Flows to call document generation natively without requiring custom Apex code.

  3. In a Vlocity CPQ context, what role does Document Generation typically play after a quote is finalized?

    Answer: It generates the customer-facing quote or proposal document from the CPQ data

    After a CPQ quote is finalized, Vlocity DocGen produces the formatted customer-facing quote or proposal by merging CPQ pricing, product, and account data into the configured template.

  4. What is the significance of the 'Context Record ID' parameter when launching a DocGen Template generation?

    Answer: It specifies which Salesforce record provides the primary data context for the merge

    The Context Record ID tells the DocGen engine which Salesforce record is the primary source of data, allowing configured data sources such as DataRaptors and SOQL to retrieve the correct record's information.

  5. How does Vlocity DocGen handle a merge field in the DOCX template when the corresponding data value is null or empty?

    Answer: The merge field marker is replaced with an empty string by default

    By default, when a data value for a merge field is null or empty, Vlocity DocGen replaces the field marker with an empty string, leaving a blank space in that position in the document.

  6. Which best practice should be followed when designing a DocGen Template that will be used across many different record types?

    Answer: Create a separate DocGen Template configuration for each record type referencing an appropriate DOCX file

    Maintaining separate DocGen Template configurations per record type keeps templates focused and easier to maintain, reducing the risk of conditional logic errors affecting unrelated document types.

  7. Which approach allows a Vlocity DocGen generated document to be immediately available for download by an end user completing an OmniScript?

    Answer: Use the DocGen Step output URL in a subsequent OmniScript Display element to present a download link

    The DocGen Step in OmniScript returns an output URL for the generated document, which can be referenced in a downstream Display or Navigation element to present an immediate download link to the user.
