Tagging Syntax
The tagging syntax allows you to customize what fields from the item record are copied to the clipboard. The system will look for values inside of curly braces. i.e. { }.
- Add "TableField" to indicate replacing with a value from a table and field.
- Add the TableName, followed by a period, followed by the FieldName e.g. {TableField:Transaction.ItemTitle} / {TableField:Transaction.ItemAuthor}.
- See the example below for the full configuration table below.
Example
Use the following example shows how to copy both the Title and Author to the clipboard when opening an Item Record.
All examples assume the following default settings. Leave these values as is.
ComparatorFormat: {Default}
ComparatorValue: {Default}
| Setting | Default |
|---|---|
| ComparatorFormat | {Default} |
| ComparatorValue | {Default} |
| PrimaryFormatString | {TableField:Transaction.ItemTitle} / |
| SecondaryFormatString | {Default} |
If the Item's Title is "The Cat in the Hat" and Author is "Dr. Seuss," The Cat in the Hat / Dr. Seuss will be copied to the clipboard if using the configuration above. The slash between the title and author can be removed if it causes problems with conducting searches.
