Document Generator

The Document Generator feature has been designed to accelerate the creation of documents by auto-populating MS Word documents.

Using a predefined template, a new Word document can be generated automatically from most modules in CommTrak, by simply selecting the required template and pressing the Download button.

See the Document Generator Templates (Settings) article for information about creating templates.

Documents can be generated either from a customer's Documents tab or from any screen that has a Related and Upload Documents field (for example, Leads, Tickets, Jobs, Projects):

To generate a document, first select a template by clicking the Select template field (highlighted in the previous image) to display a list of available templates.

When there are many templates, typing some characters will filter the list to show only matching templates:

Clicking anywhere in the template details will select the template:

Once selected, pressing the Download button will immediately generate a new Word document which will automatically be downloaded in your browser:

The previous image shows the downloaded file as presented in Firefox browser; other browsers may present the downloaded document differently.

Once downloaded, the document can be opened in Word (or other compatible application) for review or may, for example, be sent to a customer for completion or reference.
