The Platinum System "Works Order Processing" allows the layout of your Works Orders to be configured to print the details you require. This is done using a system of "tokens" which represent the items you wish to print, and their positions on the document.

Layout Tokens

Tokens are indicated by the character '~' followed by a number (the token identifier).

These identifiers may be up to 3 digits in length in the range 1 to 999. Tokens each have specific uses, which are listed below.

Parameters

Some tokens may also be given parameters. The number of parameters vary for each token. To specify a token with parameters the token must be followed by a comma then parameter. Each parameter is similarly divided from the next by a comma (no terminating comma is required).
