I have a smart note and in the instructions token of the notification I want to say, ‘Dear ’

My infoset has the employee.first and last names but I can’t seem to get them in the instructions.

Does anyone know if I'm able to populate the instruction token with variables from an infoset?

Thank you.

you wont be able to dynamically pull data into the instructions but what you can do is modify your template.

in the template for this note add the greetings text as follows:

Dear [cell?table=1&row=2&col=1] [cell?table=1&row=2&col=2],
[instructions]

Of course leave the greetings text out of your instructions. The above assumes that you only have one record or that all records hold the appropriate values to be used. Youll need to change the Table, Row and Col values to match where the first and last night values are located in your notifications. See the SmartNotes user guide for details on using the [cell?...] token. If you have any specific issues regarding that token post here.

hth,
Matt
