Document Builder: Sections

Document Builder Sections are groupings of blocks that can be named and stored in Wavebid. When saving them as part of a template, they will be available for use in any documents generated from the template. When saving them as part of a document, they will only be available within that document. For more information on creating documents, see Document Builder. Document Builder is only available to users who have also signed up for Appraisal Builder Pro (ABP).

Documents                                                                                             

Depending on your location in Document Builder the interface changes slightly, depending whether you are building a template or editing a document.

To view the existing sections in a document, navigate to My Links > Company > Document Builder > Documents, then select a document to edit. Once the page loads you will be in the Preview tab.

On the left panel you’ll have a tab for Blocks you can add  to the document, and a tab for the sections you can add.

Blocks

To place a block in the document just drag the item into the panel on the right, then drop it into the desired position. Once the section is dropped you’ll have a few options available for manipulation, to see them hover your mouse over a block (it will change to a teal background color):

•  View PDF: Preview just the single block, or the entire section.
•  Delete: Delete just the single block, or the entire section.

Some blocks will have additional options:

•  Align Left
•  Align Center
•  Align Right

Sections

On the left panel drag and drop the section into the document preview. This will add all of the blocks in the proper order and you’ll be able to manipulate them just like blocks that don’t belong to a section in particular.
