Document-template requirements
Templates are used to generate standardized organization documents for resources, where only a few variables such as the resource's name, title, salary, and so on differ from resource to resource. You can store a library of document templates for any purpose. An example would be some of the paperwork that is generated when a resource is hired.
The document template itself must exist on your machine or on a shared server in RTF format, using the Microsoft Word merge fields capability. Then you upload the templates to Infor HR Talent.
See Uploading document templates for resources.
This guide does not describe how to create the document templates. Creating a template requires an understanding of the Microsoft Word merge fields feature and a knowledge of the Lawson Pattern Language (LPL) database structure and field names required to create the template.
These are some requirements for creating templates:
-
Only administrators can upload the templates. Administrators and HR generalists can create documents using the templates.
-
The Create Document action creates a document for a specific resource.
-
The Create Document action creates a Word document based on the selected document template, in which all of the variables are resolved.
-
The generated document is attached to the resource's profile under
