Summary

Every pdf has a pdf template. See Introduction into Ops Pdfs Module#3 step process.

Template serves several purposes:

  • 1) to show EXISTING fields from the system (CT record mostly) that would appear on pdf (Examples: Shipper, CBM)
  • 2) to let user create some NEW fields (that we do not have in the system) that would appear on pdf (Example: pick up time)
  • 3) to manipulate data (Examples: convert CBM into CFT; insert new lines into "pdf commodity table")

Respectively to 3 cases above we have 3 cases of what should be specified in the design:

  • 1) since these fields has been defined already in the system as a rule (with just minor number of exceptions) these fields are to be considered (by default) on template to be identical (UI control type, UI control attributes, etc.). Example: Import Ref is a alphanumeric textbox, max length 30 chars defined on Gen Tab. On Pdf template where it appears it will be have same characteristics therefore on wiki spec we shall not repeat that it is alphanumeric textbox, max ....
    • if there is exception then it will be explicitly defined
  • 2) in this case there must be a full definition
  • 3) full definition required
