Ordering of elements in Create Correspondence interface and Data Editing view

Ordering of elements in the Create Correspondence interface

The variables and fields in the Data view of the Create Correspondence user interface display in the same order as they appear in the Letter.

Note: Here it is assumed that the layout is designed in such a way that the hierarchical order of the fields and the target areas is the same as their geographical order.

A letter can contain condition modules. Condition modules contain direct variables, derived from expressions, and the indirect variables, derived from resultant modules. In the ordering of elements in the Data view, the conditional variables display as they appear in the letter. Within the condition, the direct variable display first, sorted alphabetically, followed by the indirect variables, in the order as they are assigned in the condition.

In the Data Editing view, the layout fields display first followed by the variables from data modules.

Customizing the order of elements in Create Correspondence interface

The ordering of variables and fields in the Create Correspondence interface can be made similar to their ordering in the Data Editing view.

To do this:

  1. Go to http://<server>:<port>/lc/system/console/configMgr. And log in with administrator credentials.

  2. Search for Asset Composer Configurations.

  3. Then search for Data Elements Ordering.

    By default, this option is set to true. This implies that elements in the Create Correspondence interface display in the same order as they appear in the Letter.

  4. To ensure the elements in the Create Correspondence interface display in the same order as they appear in the Data Editing view, set the option to false.

  5. Click Save.
