Show or suppress a document in a generated contract document

You can specify whether a supporting document details are shown in a generated document. A toggle on the Supporting documents register, Show in generated document, lets you indicate whether the document is shown in a collection table in a generated document based on the collection table type. When you have a supporting document that you do not want to show in a collection table, set the toggle to No. When a document is generated, only the documents that were set to Yes are shown.

A document that is available at more than one level, such as a contract-level document available on the contract and VCO Supporting documents pages, can have a different setting at different levels. For example, you might set the toggle at the contract level to Yes to show in a generated document. You could set the toggle at the VCO level for the same document to No to not show in a VCO document. Contract uses the setting that corresponds to the level of the collection table tags in the template. Using the previous example, Contract shows the supporting document in a collection table as follows:

  • When you generate a document for a contract, the document is shown because the only collection table type in a contract document is a contract table.

  • When you generate a document for a VCO that has a contract-level collection table, the document is shown because it is part of a contract-level collection table.

  • When you generate a document for a VCO that has a VCO-level collection table, the document is not shown, because the document is suppressed at the VCO collection table level.
