General Info

Business Needs and Requirements

Business Need

The ability to list the dimensions on ALL documents.

Business Requirements

The ability to list the dimensions from Commodity#Table_B onto pdf docs without manual entry by the record operator.

One of the Reasons: Each document cannot be a 2 page document that is why we can not follow conventional way of listing it as a field on a Pdf template

Dims Format

Info should be pre-formated by the system. Example:

For table below:

File:Table B.JPG

Info will be pre-formatted like this:

10 @ 200x500x80 cm
 5 @ 15x15x25 cm

Suggestions for Design

Marc and I identified 2 options for design.

Design A

  • add new Dimensions textarea on Cont Tab
  • add "Populate Dims" button
  • user would click on this button for system top populate this textarea with dims info accordingly to #Dims Format
  • user then would copy/paste from there into any desired Pdf template field (manually)

Design B

  • add new Dimensions textarea on Pdf template
  • user then would copy/paste from there into any desired Pdf template field (manually)
