Installing and setting up Q2 origination skuid extension

The Q2 Origination application allows you to customize the default page layout and design. This customization ensures business as usual in terms of the way your application screens are laid out and the prominence given to specific fields. For this, Q2 Origination integrates with Skuid that is a third-party software available on the Salesforce platform. Skuid allows you to use drag and drop code-free tools to customize the design and layout of your Salesforce pages. There are ready-made components like tables and panels which you can drag and drop and add the desired fields. This eliminates the need to write custom code in Visualforce and provides greater flexibility in adapting the application to your business requirements. Refer to the Skuid Developer Guide for more information. 

For example, your organization may be integrating with Global Data Company (GDC) for performing pre-qualification checks of your customers, like verifying their email IDs. Using Skuid, you could create a Pre-Qualification tab on the Q2 Origination main page and configure it to display the results of the GDC checks and any other such pre-qualification tests you may be executed through other verification organizations. Similarly, if you have a details page, which is a Visualforce page, then each time you want any layout changes you need to approach a developer. With Skuid Extension, you can modify the page layout yourself by simply dragging and dropping new fields or removing existing fields from the layout.

You can also build pages from scratch using Skuid.
