Use variables to load document content dynamically
This guide explains how to use variables in EasyBilling to create dynamic content in your documents, adding customization and flexibility.
Dynamic Content Variables:
EasyBilling provides six key variables for inserting dynamic data:
- [CUSTOMER_NAME] (Customer Name)
- [CUSTOMER_ID] (Customer ID)
- [DOCUMENT_NUMBER] (Document Number)
- [DOCUMENT_DATE] (Document Date)
- [TOTAL_AMOUNT] (Total Amount)
- [TOTAL_AMOUNT_IN_WORDS] (Total Amount in Words)
These variables are enclosed in square brackets [].
Adding Variables to Your Documents:
