A sales rep wants to create an Account Plan and share it with the regional sales managers to close a large opportunity. You can create a flow that uses the Copy Quip Document core action to copy an Account Plan template when the Opportunity stage is set to Proposal/Quote. Configure the action to replace merge fields with data from the account, add the Account Plan to a folder, and share the folder with the regional sales managers.
