Make understand the team members that this is new functionality for the team and arrange KT session for this with the person who were already expertise in this. Then organanise these knowledges as per the process which were already followed by previous experts of this new functionality.

In case if the functionality is entirely new and if our team is the first going to handle this, then with the selected top performing resource and team lead should arrange for the training sessions with the clients and other stack holders and then bring a process and have frequent reviews till this new process being implemented successfully.
