# Set Up Your Work.com Development Org

To develop and test your Work.com solution, you need an org with Work.com enabled. You can use a Partner Developer Edition org or a scratch org.

Use the following steps to enable the Work.com data model in your development org.

1.  **If you’re using a new Partner Developer Edition org** created from the Environment Hub in Partner Business Org, the Work.com add-on feature should be enabled by default. Contact Salesforce if the add-on feature is not enabled in your Partner Developer Edition org.

    **note:** To add a Work.com permission set license to an existing Partner Developer Edition org, [log a case for a license request in the Partner Community](https://partners.salesforce.com/newPartnerCase?subtopic=LicenseRequest) (Partner Community login required).

    **If you’re using a scratch org**, enable the “WorkplaceCommandCenterUser”, “Communities”, and “ForceComPlatform” add-on features. To use Workplace Command Center in your scratch org, enable Surveys and Communities settings. For example, your scratch org scratch-def.json configuration file might look like:

    ```nolang
    {
      "orgName": "my company",
      "edition": "Enterprise",
      "features": [
        "Communities",
        "WorkplaceCommandCenterUser",
        "ForceComPlatform"
      ],
      "settings": {
        "lightningExperienceSettings": {
          "enableS1DesktopEnabled": true
        },
        "surveySettings": {
          "enableSurvey": true
        },
        "communitiesSettings": {
          "enableNetworksEnabled": true
        }
      }
    }
    ```

2.  For Workplace Command Center development, install both the [Workplace Command Center](http://work.force.com/workplacecommandcenter) and [Wellness Check](http://work.force.com/employeewellnesssurveysamples) packages (org login required). For Employee Workspace development, install the [Employee Workspace package](https://work.force.com/employeeworkspace).

3.  For Workplace Command Center development, create and assign the Workplace Command Center permissions in your org. To create all the permission sets and permission set groups for all Workplace personas, [use the Update Permissions option](https://help.salesforce.com/articleView?id=wcc_setup_update_perms.htm&type=5) from within the Command Center Settings tab. Then assign your user the permission set group called Workplace Admin Access Group. For information on Employee Workspace users and permissions, see [Meet the Employee Workspace Personas](https://help.salesforce.com/articleView?id=employee_workspace_setup_meet_personas.htm&language=en_US).

We provide an example script that sets up a scratch org for Work.com. See [https://github.com/forcedotcom/WorkDotCom-Partners/blob/master/orgInit.sh](https://github.com/forcedotcom/WorkDotCom-Partners/blob/master/orgInit.sh).

**note:** For a more streamlined setup process, create a scratch org and use the [Work.com installer service](https://help.salesforce.com/articleView?id=wcc_setup_install_man_pack.htm&type=5) to add and partially configure the Workplace Command Center, Wellness Check, or Employee Workspace packages in your org. For reference, see [Verify Command Center and Wellness Check Installation and Auto-Configuration](https://help.salesforce.com/articleView?id=wcc_setup_verify_install.htm&type=5) or [Verify Employee Workspace Installation and Auto-Configuration](https://help.salesforce.com/articleView?id=employee_workspace_setup_personas.htm).
