How are you using the 2 together?

03/18/2020, 10:20 AMMaybe you could output the entire result so that you can see all available values maybe it's doing something odd with the fieldnames

03/18/2020, 10:21 AMThe saved search is written on the Purchase Order, and it doesn't return value for {entity} field(its blank). Hence, used vendor.altname in the search result. But i dont know how to access joins {vendor.altname} in Advanced PDF.

03/18/2020, 10:25 AMAs I see it "result" is your main record object so unless you have somehow managed to define "vendor" that wouldn't work. AFAIK.
My money would have been on this format -
result.<field_that_is_a_record>.<fieldname_form_record>
Which you seem to be doing so I'm afraid I don't know without going away and trying to debug it myself.
Again, I'd output the whole result to see if it offers any clues.
