For an invoice template, the end user wants to have row and value pairs like this:
| BALANCE FORWARD | $10.00 |
| PAST DUE AMOUNT | $10.00 |
| CURRENT CHARGE | $15.00 |
| TAXES | $0.60 |
The detail charge type labels will vary, so I’m wondering if the software does this automatically somehow, or will I be resigned to creating a snippet and using a script to add each row that matches the one in the data? Maybe it would be a useful enhancement to the detail table wizard?
thanks,
Lou
Hello Lou,
The output you show seems pretty standard for the Dynamic Table wizard, where the only condition for the “easy” way is that your data model should be built in the right way. What I mean is, if you have a table containing two fields - title and amount - the wizard will gladly handle it that way.
Of course, without seeing the source data it’s hard to say how to do this, but there certainly IS a way, that’s for sure. But most data sources I’ve seen were very easy to handle to do this sort of thing, as long as your titles are within the data itself.
Perhaps if you can provide an example of your source data, I can help you progress a little further.
