Slide 1

Slide notes: We will be looking at the Template to get a Numeric from an Accumulator. First we start with an example. In this layout, we see a Unit. For example, at Tag 3, there may be multiple lines with a Purchase Price each, and while the Unit is processing these lines, each Purchase Price is passed to an Accumulator. At the end, the total for the Purchase Price column is available in that Accumulator. Then, in the main Document, when we want this Total at Tag 6, then we just get it from the Accumulator.

Slide 24

Slide notes: The Help explains about the available Accumulators, and which to use when. We can also use these Accumulators in Macro Logic, and therefore it is useful to understand which ranges are good to use with Tag Templates.

Slide 27

Slide notes: So that means that the Tag in the Main Document should get its total from Accumulator number 63.

Slide 32

Slide notes: Total 1 is the Tag for the Purchase Price Column Total.

Slide 33

Slide notes: It is using the Template for Numeric from Accumulator, and it gets the total from Accumulator number 63. So this is a good example of how we use the Template for Numeric from Accumulator.
