When you have your template published, open an Employee's Profile on the correct category.

In the Create Employee Record dialog box, click to Select From Template and select the template from the list. 



Click Next. 


The system will then pick up the data from the Employee's profile where it can be merged into the document. 



If you have the ability to, you may wish to change some of the data (e.g. the written format of dates).


Click Next. 


Check you're happy with the information on the Record Details tab and click Create Record. 



The document will be created and saved as an Employee Record on their file.
