Creating Custom Placeholders

Placeholders are special expressions used in Parallels Business Automation - Standard in e-mail notification templates and print forms.

Having been inserted in the addressee fields or a message template text, a placeholder automatically drops appropriate value to the actual text generated.

Parallels Business Automation - Standard offers a wide range of placeholders, but if you think you need new ones, you can add them using the API provided.

Note: To replace or customize an existing placeholder, create a placeholder with the same name. To restore the default placeholder, remove a custom one.

Placeholders can be used for a single value insertion (customer name or a hosting plan name) or for inserting a table with an order or other documents details (vector placeholders). You can add placeholders of both types.
