Overview
Using the Sales Pad Excel Sales Document report, along with an Excel spreadsheet containing merge fields, you can create an Excel spreadsheet report for an existing sales document. Merge fields will insert predefined information from the sales document into the spreadsheet report. You can create more than one Excel spreadsheet with different levels of detail, and select from those files to choose the level of detail displayed on the printed sales document. Any relevant settings and securities will be noted at the end of the document.
Setup
First, create an Excel file template, much like you would create a template for a Printed Report. This
template can include the company logo and standard wording that will apply to all printed documents using this template. It must contain merge fields that will pull information specific to each sales
document onto the report. Place the desired merge fields from the list below into the appropriate areas of the template. Here is a list of merge fields that can be used:

Usage
To print the report, open a sales document and click the Print button. Select Excel Sales Document from the list of available reports, then click Print or Preview. You will be prompted to open the Excel spreadsheet.
Note: Sales Pad will open any xls file and will merge with only the first worksheet in the file.
Select the file and click Open. Any merge fields will be replaced with the corresponding information from the open sales document. You can now modify the spreadsheet and print, fax, or email it as needed.
Note: Due to limitations in Microsoft, the maximum character transfer for any field is 255.
Security
Excel Sales Document – Allows users to see and use the Excel Sales Document report
Print Report* – Allows users to see and print the reports
Note: Securities with an asterisk (such as Print Report) have sub-securities that are listed in the middle section of the Security field. Sub-security descriptions appear in the bottom section of the field. Review and customize these as desired.
