How to Create a Custom WA Enrolment Invoice Template

Before creating a custom uReport template it is important to understand how the templates work. The templates are designed to use Microsoft Word mailmerge fields to reference desired Wisenet data fields.

Warning: You should only proceed if you have an intermediate level of technical and problem solving skills.

Learn how Regions and Fields work before proceeding further.

Important Note: While these steps are not hard, they do, however, require very careful attention to detail.  Therefore, we strongly recommend that you have an intermediate level of technical and problem solving skills.
