Subdocument is a way to manage shared information existing in multiple document template from one place, such as headers, footers, signatures, etc.. Subdocument allows to make changes in a single document but the effect of the change will be reflected in each document referencing that subdocument.
Subdocument
Subdocument is created the same way a regular document template is created, refer to Document Templates for details about creating a document template.
Make sure to choose a name that will not require changing in the future, changing the document name will require updating that information in all the document templates.
Designing a subdocument
Subdocuments are designed the same way a document is created with some consideration.
Only the body of the document will be displayed when calling the subdocument.
Header and footer will be ignored
There will always be a line break ¶ after each subdocument.
Calling a subdocument
To call a subdocument from a document template use the following:
[[Subdocuemnt:Name of Subdocument]]
Tips & Restrictions
Subdocument can contain insertable fields but it will only work if the document template and subdocument are in the same functional area.
Subdocument will work even if the status is inactive.
Subdocument will work with different functional area if there are no reference to insertable fields.
At the end of subdocument a line break will be placed, which means a continuous line of text is not possible after the subdocument.
