Burst a Sample Report - Payslips.pdf

ReportBurster includes a sample three-page samples/Payslips.pdf document (in the samples folder). When you burst this report, it will generate three output files for the distinct employees found in the input report:

• [email protected]
• [email protected]
• [email protected]

Please check/click the samples/Payslips.pdf report to see how the burst tokens are defined like email addresses delimited by curly brackets, { and }

1. Launch ReportBurster
   
   Let's see exactly how ReportBurster works. First, launch the application

2. Select Your Document
   
   Select your document file containing all the reports needing distribution

3. Payslips.pdf (sample report)
   
   We'll demonstrate with monthly payslips, but this identical workflow works perfectly for invoices, financial statements, or any recurring document type

4. Start Processing
   
   Initiate the automated processing with a single click

5. Watch the Magic Happen
   
   Watch ReportBurster's automated system distribute documents quickly and accurately

6. Review Results
   

   Processing is complete! You can now review detailed statistics for all distributed files

   

   This example generated three output files—one for each employee—named after their email address (configurable).

   The same workflow works perfectly for invoices, financial statements, or any other document type, and can handle thousands of individual payslips, invoices, or reports for your customers and partners.
