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

[srchilukoori]

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.

Hi

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

Currently there is no workaround neither.

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

I'm very SAD for this 😞  NO TAGs in NP June 2017

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

Hi Lech.

Just to let you know this actually works.

I´ve just tried it.

It works perfectly. Thanks!

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.

I tried the same but no success in it.

Can you share the screenshot of it.
