Template Developer is an Add-in for Microsoft Word that helps you quickly create automated document templates for Actionstep.
The problem: Users have to manually look up and type in mergefield codes when creating Actionstep templates. These can often be difficult to learn, especially for non-technical users, and it is easy to make typographical errors. For example: [[FirstInitialWithLastName|pt=Selected__Participant|ifnull=ignore]] or [[SP_SalePurchaseDate|fm=%-e_%B_%Y]]. This becomes more complicated again when using IF or REPEAT blocks in the template.
Actionstep can also be very particular in its requirements for correctly parsing a mergefield - for example, exact spacing within field codes and using non-curly quotation marks.
The solution: A taskpane in Microsoft Word which lets the user select mergefields and common options and automatically insert them into the template.
