The “Insert Static Document” option in DocumentsCorePack Templates

2706 views 1 Updated on November 6, 2023

The Insert Static Document functionality allows you to insert a sub-template into your current template or to insert further documents with static text, like Terms and Conditions.

The following example shows a template with a placeholder for a sub-template ❶ and the final merged document ❷.

This article will help you with how to access the Insert Field option.

Insert Field  >  Insert Static Item > ❶ Static Document

2 Select a document to insert

The Static document dialog opens up and allows us to select the document we want od add.

Note: If you select a DocumentsCorePack template, you can specify a pattern by selecting a field. When the field is selected and set as the pattern, it will be automatically recognized as a parameter and therefore define the Dynamcs 365 record you want to create the sub-document for. (in our example we chose the Contact-ID for a template created for contacts)

All the available documents are stored in the DocumentsCorePack templates entity.

The ❶ View section of the Look Up dialog has a drop-down menu for

  • Active DocumentsCorePack Templates – which is the default view
  • DocumentsCorePack Template Advanced Find View
  • Inactive DocumentsCorePack Templates

Or you can use the Name search field to find your template.

4 Save your template

Before you can use or test your template, you must save it. Either save your template locally with the standard Save or Save as functionality of Word or use the Save template option of the DocumentsCorePack TemplateDesigner to publish the template to Dynamics 365.

5 Test your template [optional]

As you make changes to your template, you may want to test it. A step-by-step description of how to test your template can be found here.

That’s it! We appreciate your feedback! Please share your thoughts by sending an email to support@mscrm-addons.com.
