This topic covers information about how to generate multiple line items in billing documents using mail merge tables, including setup and customization options.

To generate multiple line items in a billing document, use the mail merge tables.

• To mark the beginning of a mail merge table, insert a mail merge field with the name TableStart:MyObject , where MyObject corresponds to the name of a multi-line object.

• To mark the end of the mail merge table, insert another mail merge field with the name TableEnd:MyObject .

• Between the TableStart and TableEnd marking fields, place the merge fields that correspond to the fields of your table columns. These merge fields will be populated with data from the first row of the multi-line object, then the following rows will be populated with the data from the object.

For example, to generate multiple line items on an invoice item, create TableStart:InvoiceItem and TableEnd.InvoiceItem merge fields in your template, where InvoiceItem is a multi-line object. You can create this merge field just like any other merge field, but this field specifies which region will be repeated for each of the Invoice Items.

Multi-line items can be displayed within a table and cannot be displayed in other areas of billing document templates. The following objects are multi-line items that you can use with TableStart and TableEnd

Use the sort order described Changing the Sort Order on a Table when defining products if you have specific ordering requirements.
