08/13/2020, 11:16 PMI am trying to create a CSV file from a vendor bill payment and upload it to an FTP. I can get bills that were included on the payment though a search, but you cannot pull in the credits that were applied (future enhancement). What I am trying to do is print the transaction as HTML using a basic PDF template as it does include the credits and then parse out the data that I need from the HTML.

08/13/2020, 11:20 PMthat would only work if I used an advanced PDF template correct?

08/14/2020, 1:17 AM@michoel the advanced pdf template will work after all. I originally chose the US template and it didnt have any credit information or ability to choose any from the field selector, but then I tried the non-country specific template and sure enough it works
