document generator

The system is business-user friendly. Follow these steps for document generation and distribution.

 STEP 1: Upload Existing Template

EDocGen supports the dynamic population of text, tables, images, paragraphs, hyperlinks, reusable content blocks, etc. Each one has a distinct tag. Just add the relevant tags to existing templates. Business users can edit their templates in the native editors. For example, Word templates can be edited in Microsoft Word. For more details on tag notations, check the help guide.



Word and PDF Template Upload: Upload DOCX/PDF templates by clicking the 'Upload a template' button at the right-top on the Template screen. It opens a pop-up to drag-and-drop/select the template from the local machine.

Permissions: You can also select which roles can access this template. Only authorized personnel can create documents from this template.

Folders: While uploading a template, you can choose the folder for that template.

 STEP 2: Data to Documents

After uploading your template into the EDocGen document generator, now it's time to generate documents from it. The tool offers several options to automate document generation.

  1. Option 1: Autofill templates with data files (Excel/XML/JSON) for the bulk generation.
  2. Option 2: Use system-generated data capture forms (web forms) for document creation.
  3. Option 3: Batch generation of documents from SQL Server/Oracle/MySQL/MongoDB databases.









XML/JSON/Excel: The population of Exel/XML/JSON is a three-step process. In the first step, upload the file. In the second step map the template dynamic fields to data headers. Finally, in the third step, enter the file name. You can choose to prefix the file name with one of the dynamic field values for easy identification of files.

Form Input: The webform option has two steps. In the first step, input the dynamic values in the form. In the second step, enter the file name and click generate. The fillable form is suited for creating a single document. You can share the form URL and "invite" your customers and vendors to fill it.

Databases: Document generation from Databases is a three-step. The webform option has two steps. In the first step, input the connection string and the SQL query. In the second step map the template dynamic fields to column names. Finally, in the third step, enter the file name.

 STEP 3: Document Distribution


Email: The system auto-sends generated documents to the contact email present on the respective documents. You can configure to send them from your business email using SendGrid, Office 365, GSuite, and SES.

E-Sign: The E-Sign framework allows you to send generated documents to the E-Sign provider of choice.

Cloud Storage: Sync generated documents to cloud storage providers such as OneDrive, SharePoint, etc.,

Print: Generates a single print-ready file.

 Key Features

Text and Tables



Text and tables can be merged into documents wherever a tag is placed. The system supports the multi-lingual data population.


Images



Populate images into the templates from the data file. You can dynamically set the image size. The system also supports the Base64 image population.


Numerical calculations



Perform the sum, multiplication, average, etc. of a set of values inline when the document is generated. For example, if you want to calculate the total invoice amount in an invoice table, add the sum to the table. The value would be computed at the time of generation.


The system also supports the dynamic population of hyperlinks, content blocks, file attachments, HTML, etc.
