Prompt in document footer

[nickparker-hsoa]

I have a custom field that is set as a prompt and that is then coded into a ReadyBloc that is later referenced on the main document in the footer. When I render the document, the prompt does not come up. Is there a way to prompt from a ReadyBloc that is set as a footer or another work around?

Screen shots of the custom field, document footer and readybloc have been attached.

Hi - checking to see if there was any update on this question?

I have sent this to our Documents group. I will reply with any response I get. I don't know when I will hear back since they are a separate group. Feel free to ping me again if you don't hear back from me in a reasonable amount of time.

Sorry for the delay.

This needs to be added to the HEADER of the document.

Code: Select all

<VAR $Fax (“”)><IF (IsEmpty({{Order.ReturnToEscrowOfficeFaxNumber##}}))><VAR $Fax ({{Order.Escrow.Office.Fax}})><ELSE><VAR $Fax ({{Order.ReturnToEscrowOfficeFaxNumber##}})></IF>

Because our rendering engine renders HEADERS and FOOTERS before the body of the document, the value assigned to the $Fax variable must be established prior to the rendering of the footer, which is where the ReadyBloc reference (<REF (ftg_EscrowOfficeFooter_PrivatePayoffEnglish##)>) is located.

Once the variable coding above is added to the header, the data is rendered as expected.
