Running the script

Measurement data for checklist

 

The script creates the service items to fill the print variable {pr_Color} in the article and order texts with the color from the measurement or from the BOM measurement and to transfer quantity, dimensions and price.

 

Service items for displaying text and price

 

The script fills the type attributes with the entered BOM variable to adopt the RAL color code from the BOM, or the value remains empty if the item is not linked to a BOM.
