Customize a health insurance proposal form and track its stages

Customize a health insurance proposal form and track its stages

Edition: Enterprise | Industry: Insurance | Feature: Module Customization

Scenario
Emma Wilkins is a Senior Sales Manager at a health insurance company. They offer custom-made insurance plans based on different coverage levels that cater to individuals and organizations. The interested clients usually call their customer care agent or send them emails to enquire about the available policies. The insurance agents ask questions to help them understand the customer's requirements so they can offer a comprehensive Health Insurance plan. Once the proposal forms are filled out, they progress through different stages—submitted, reviewed, payment link sent, payment received, and policy created. 
 
Now, as numerous forms are filled out and submitted on a daily basis, Emma finds it difficult to monitor and track the progress of the forms from one stage to another. This also prevents her from noticing potential delays at any particular stage. 
 
Requirement:
Emma wants to replicate the proposal form in one of the CRM modules to depict the different stages of the form. 

Solution 
Emma can create a custom module with the required custom fields and sections as in the proposal forms. However, custom modules don't allow Emma to include a way of tracking the stages in the CRM layout. One of the standard modules (the Deals module) in CRM does represent stages within the layout, exactly the way Emma wants. She therefore decides to customize the Deals module and renamed it "Proposal Form" to depict the different stages of the form.

Here's how she can do that:
1. Rename the Deals module to "Proposal Form".
2. Create a custom layout called "New Proposal Form" in the Proposal Form module.
3. Move standard fields that cannot be deleted to a new section in the layout.
4. Create new sections and add the following custom fields to the layout:
