Hi - I am attempting to use Notepad and Automate to create individual PDF files for each employee on pay days. The object set, “Compensation”, being used contains one row for every pay entry. Therefore, if one employee sold 5 products during the payroll period, there would be 5 entries (or 6 if they received an added bonus). When using the row generator or inserting individual object properties it is treating each object as a separate line item. Is there a way for me to create the notepad PDF report which takes into account all objects for a given employee?
Do I understand correctly that the issue is the automation is triggering once per Compensation object rather than once per employee?
Can you clarify a bit what you mean (maybe with a screenshot) of “When using the row generator or inserting individual object properties it is treating each object as a separate line item.”
Hi, unfortunately, we currently don’t support generating contents for objects linked to the generator object.
However, the Notepad team is actively tracking this feature request, and are actively investing in adding support for nested template section/row generators to incorporate sections/rows based on an object set of first-degree linked objects for the top-level generator object.
Yes. It is creating the output as one row per Compensation object vs. all the individual objects/rows related to the associate’s name. I assume that I am using the row generator incorrectly, but not 100% sure.
