How do I add date to the subject of nprinting email (dynamic subject)

srchilukoori — Wed, 25 Sep 2019 18:40:54 GMT

Hi,

Can we add the date (when the email was sent) to the subject of the email in Nprinting. I'm using Nprinting 17.2.0.0.

Thank you.

this is not supported yet, and i am not sure whether it is on roadmap.

Currently there is no workaround neither.

regards

Lech

Hi,

*Apologies, this is my first post*

There is a way around this, assuming you are linking to a QVW - create a variable in the script with the text you need and add the date variable at the end. For example:

LET vToday = Date(Today());

LET vEmailSubject = 'Text for email - ' & Date('$(vToday)');

Within NPrinting, add the variable as a tag (to the right of the subject field within the task), or manually type in '%%Variable_Connection_vEmailSubject%%' (assuming you use the same naming convention). Selecting through the tag is preferable, though.

I hope this helps, if you've not already been able to fix this.

Hi Richard. Are you sure??

There is no TAG for email Subject/ Title in Nprinting 17.X!!

That was only available in Nprinting 16.X

There are tags in e-mail content though - not e-mail subject!

cheers

I followed the instructions precisely, but can't get this to work in NPrinting 17.3

If someone can get this to work in 17.X, please share screenshots / code.

Can you share the screenshot of it.

Its not working.

Re: How do I add date to the subject of nprinting email (dynamic subject)

Lech_Miszkiewicz — Sun, 12 Aug 2018 14:04:48 GMT

it is because it is not supported yet - so obviously it does not work!

Hi,

Is this feature added in the September 2018 release.

As checked in the below, link there is no update about this. Any idea by when can we expect this, as Users required it for some reason.

Aren’t we all waiting for it? No ETA as to my knowledge...

Hi,

You can already add some dynamic content into the email subjects. Just add the tags into the email body then cut and past it into the subject. Of course, ad the moment you can add in the subjects only the tags that are available in the bodies.

Best Regards,

Ruggero

Hi,

This is what it is possible to do with Qlik NPrinting at the moment (September 2018).

All other features need to be developed and I don't know when they will be available.

Best Regards,

Hi,

Below is the workaround for adding date in Email Subject line in Nprinting 17

Nprinting 17 supports user tags in Email body as well as Email Subject line.

In my case user list is imported through excel.

Following are the steps to add date in Email subject line.

Put ‘=Today()’ function in one of the field of the user list excel which are available in User tags.
Create an excel with macros in it to open, save and close the user list excel.
Schedule the macro enabled excel via batch file.
Schedule the import task to reload the user_list metadata in Nprinting accordingly.
Add the user tag containing date and Paste the Variable appeared for the tag in Subject line.
