How does the document generator save me time?
All the steps in the “process” of making a copy of the document take time – locating a suitable “source” document for copying (where do I start looking? Is what I found really the most recent copy?), Searching for the data that needs to be replaced within the document and replacing it with new values (the data that needs to be replaced is not “highlighted” and is not limited to a certain part of the document), etc.
Instead of all of the above – you can create a new “record” of the appropriate type, fill in its data in an orderly and organized manner, and create the document with the click of a button when you’re done filling in the data. Filling out the data in the form is much faster – also because you don’t have to look for it in the text, and you don’t have to make an effort to remember how to fill it in correctly – for example, a value that is limited to a list of values is indeed limited in the form to this list and does not allow you to select incorrect values…; Also – values that are “mandatory” will not allow the creation of the document without them, and it will be clear from the form when you have finished filling in everything that is necessary – without having to search again and again in the document…
The document generator also makes it possible to create several documents in one operation from one form – for example when some of the data is common to all the new documents – then you don’t have to enter them again…
