Scenario
Joel King, a channel manager, has been assigned a new partner called Fluxystems, which he wants to onboard. To start, Fluxystems has only one partner seller: Maria Davis. As part of partner onboarding, Joel always shares the article 5 Tips for handling difficult customers with the new partner. Fluxystems is going to take over Acme Software, so Joel wants to share the organization.
Before the article can be shared as onboarding collateral, Joel needs to ask Sales ops to assign it to the Onboarding category.
