Templates can contain logos, headings, borders, calculation and anything else that is required to produce the desired output.

  Use the Folder icon to open the Excel Template so you can see an example of the Template.

• Customer - enter or select from the query a default Customer number that appears when you use this Quote Sheet in Generator Product Information Sheets (IM82). You may also leave this field blank.

• Price List - enter or select from the query a default Price List that appears when you use this Quote Sheet in IM82. You may also leave this field blank.

  • 1 Product - one Product displays per page

  • 4 Products - four Products display per page
  • List of Products - a list of Products displays on each page.

• Column Offset - this field is available when the Format is set to '2 Products', and is mandatory when the Format is set to '4 Products'. IM81 uses the original cell location and adds the column offset to determine where the next product should print on the Excel spreadsheet.

• Row Offset - this field is available when the Format is set to '2 Products', and is mandatory when the Format is set to '4 Products'. The Row Offset value is the number of lines on the Excel spreadsheet from the start of one Product to the start of the next Product.
  • If the Product pictures are to print one above the other, then set the Row Offset but leave the Column Offset at 0.
  • For 4 products per page, the original cell location plus the Column Offset indicates where item 2 will appear, the original cell plus the Row Offset indicates where item 3 will appear and the original cell location plus the Row Offset and the Column Offset indicates where item 4 will appear on the quote sheet.
