How to generate a pdf of cards
The steps for generating a pdf/sending of card mails are:
-
Create a type of card.
-
On the card type listing page, there is an option that indicates 'Upload excel file', click on that link.
-
Select the option 'Only generate cards'.
-
Upload the excel file to the platform. This file to upload must follow a certain structure, so it is necessary to download the template.
Download the excel template from this link, fill in the fields at your convenience, upload the excel.
Remember that you can include in the QR column the texts that you want to show in the QR, although keep in mind that if you fill that column, there may be problems if validated with our app, by not assigning bikubo automatically the locators of the QRs.
The column observations of the excel file, it serves so that what is written there, is shown in the validation. For example, if for an attendee it is put as an observation 'Notify organization when it is validated', this message will be shown in the validator of our app.
Fields 1 to 20 of the excel, correspond to those that you have registered in the card, so that if you have selected field 1 and assigned to a text to be shown in the card, it will be painted over she the content of that field. In addition, you have included or not one of the twenty fields in the card, it is saved in database, and subsequently the fields are shown in the attendance report, and also serve for searches in the Attendant list.
You will be able to generate at most the number of cards that you have as electronic credit balance available. After the generation, the cards generated are available in the 'list of PDFs' jointly, and individually in the 'Attendant list'. If you need more cards, you can buy them.
The system will perform a series of checks, which can show you warnings (which allow you to progress although it is advised to correct them if necessary), errors (the system would not let you move forward and you should correct them) or if everything is correct.
