  EXAMPLE  
    To send out a list of products modified yesterday
  1. Create a header document via DOCUMENT_MANAGE.
  • You can include tags from your advanced search, for example [[PRODUCT.CREATEDDATE]]. These fields will be populated from the first row of results
  • You can also include the tags [[CONTACTPERSON.SURNAME]] AND [[CONTACTPERSON.FIRSTNAME]] - These will be populated with the recipient.
  • Add the tag where the lines will go [[AUTOMATION.LINEDOCUMENT]]. Typically, you would set up a table, for egReference[[AUTOMATION.LINEDOCUMENT]]
  2. Create a line document via DOCUMENT_MANAGE. This document will be repeated for each row in the results. For example, [[product.reference]]
  3. Build the advanced search. You don't need to pass the fields, they will be picked up automatically from the template. You can pass ordering, options etc, but the filter section is the most important. For example, {"filters":[{"name":"modifieddate","comparison":"equal_to","value1":"yesterday"}]}
