Reduce Document Name issue

Mon, 26 Jan 2026 18:19:17 GMT

Hello Gurus,

I want to distribute a report with name as [Document Name]-[Parameter Value] format. e.g. Document Name = SALE, Parameter = RunDate, Parameter Value = 20120801

then, My distributed document shuold have name as SALE-20120801.QVW

I have tried using Reduce Document Name functionality with %SourceDocumentName%-%ScriptParameter% but it produces document as "SALE-RunDate=20120801"

I dont want parameter to appear on the name.

Please help.

I think the solution is to load the parameter variable into a document field, and then use the Field name as part of the reduced document name. For example, in the script add:

LOAD '$(RunDate) ' as _RunDate AUTOGENERATE 1;

Then in the template:

%SourceDocumentName%-%DocumentField,_RunDate%
