There are times when you want to send the same letter or printout to multiple people, each one with unique data. Some examples include:
Alert permit applicants that their permit will expire in the next 30 days.
Let homeowners know that it's time to pump their on-lot septic system.
Print a copy of all the permits that were issued in the last month.
With the new Bulk Printing feature, you can perform these multi-print jobs.
The first step is to create the printout using the Custom Print Templates feature.
Next, create the list of properties, permits, etc. that should have a printout created. For the example of a letter to all applicants of a permit about to expire, use the Report Builder tool, to create this list of permits.
Then, using your list, click Down Arrow > Bulk Print from Template.
Choose the Custom Print Template to print and click Generate.
In the Bulk Prints window, you'll see that the bulk print has been queued for processing.
When the bulk print shows a Progress of 100% and Status of Complete, you can download the PDF. Click Down Arrow > Download Bulk Print.
