through rule wizard

Use rules to define which layout is used for which billing document.
For example, if you have created layouts for documents with and without discounts, you can use rules to define which layout is used under which conditions.

Define rules for document layouts

Reminders and payment advices do not count as billing documents and do not run through this rule wizard.

Select Organization > Master data > Document layouts > Manage rules for document layouts and text modules > Add.

A rule always consists of three parts:

In addition, it is important that a rule can be switched on or off and that it is given a certain priority. Priorities determine which rules take precedence if the conditions are the same. It is best to proceed "from the specific to the general". Rule number 1 has the highest priority.

Conditions and actions

  1. Add conditions via the New entry link.

  2. Define conditions.

  3. Select the + and - symbols at the end of a condition line to create or delete conditions.

  4. Specify whether all or only one condition should apply.

  5. Define actions that occur when the conditions apply. These actions consist of selecting a complete document layout and/or a special introductory or closing text for the document.

Examples

Display, export, import document layout rules

Select Global or Organization > Master data > Voucher layouts > Manage rules for voucher layouts and text modules.

You will find your rules here. Use the buttons to add rules or perform other actions with the rules.

You can also export the selected rules.

Importing rules

When you export rules, they are saved in an XML file on your PC.

If you want to import these rules again (perhaps in a different Scopevisio company or instance), open Global or Organization > Master data > Document layouts > Manage rules for document layouts and text modules.

Click the Upload button and select the exported XML file by double-clicking it.

Check the rules to be imported (you can also select All) and click Import selection. Done.
