Creating a proposal (offer) doc/pdf file with a dynamic table of positions

Hi Janecki,

you could do this with only free tools (google docs) but you need to be able to somewhat understand html.
This is a quick sketch, let me know if you need a more detailed instruction.

  • Create your template with google docs, including one row of the positions table
  • save/export as html
  • open with browser and view the source code
  • find the table portion of the row you want to loop and copy it into a „text aggregator“ module
  • map to the source module so it creates the looped rows section
  • map this output to a „compose a string“ module which holds the rest of the html
  • use „create a document“ from Google docs to create ur document from that html.

Hope this helps!
John
