We do not currently use sugar automate. Most of our service request (we call them work orders) are either too simple or we have designed a BPM. I was wondering if anyone had a good example of the best use of a service request that is the perfect fit for Automate and why. I know I could build any of these in Automate but I am looking for something that fits better here than anywhere else, and why. If you have any related thoughts, opinions, or stories I would love to hear them as well! Thank you all for your replies. I am hoping for an answer, but also a good discussion. I would love for the banking group to get more active and help each other with ideas and answers!

First step is to break down all the inputs - use something like https://www.bankrate.com/loans/personal-loans/how-to-calculate-loan-payments/ to point all the questions (fields) that your loan officer would capture from a user (or some might have been prepopulated from web form submissions) That same site also gives you the formula - which you can use SugarLogic with. This is likely to become relatively complex - so from a best practice pov, I&amp;#39;d often use hidden fields to capture the components of the formula. Two other learnings I had: End users (your customers&amp;#39; customer) are used to doing this on the web, e.g. https://www.commbank.com.au/digital/home-buying/calculator/home-loan-repayments - where they get instant answers and often pretty graphics to go with. Sugar doesn&amp;#39;t do that. The above is all internal staff facing. Your customer (and indeed, lots of teams) use Excel to calculate this internally when on the phone etc - e.g. https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/using-excel-formulas-to-figure-out-payments-and-savings-11cb708f-c137-4ef8-bcf3-5137aaeb4b20 - whatever you design within Sugar will be compared to this in terms of usability Hope this helps!

For example, if your Sugar instance is birdzell.sugarondemand.com, you can visit https://birdzell.sugarondemand.com/#Tags . This will give you a List View of Tags, and my recommendation is to select checkboxes for the typos and the correct spelling, and then Merge the records - that will ensure that you both remove the typos and re-tag the records with the correct one. I would strongly recommend using the merge feature because I find it faster than going into a Tag, and manually retagging individual Accounts and Leads etc. If you don&amp;#39;t retag (whether manually or using the Merge feature), then deleting the Tag means those Accounts/Opps/etc will lose the Tag altogether, and you may find it harder to find them. This is similar in principle to how you might manage removal of options from a dropdown - always ensure the records have a valid value before removing the dropdown value. Hope this helps!
