A1 Coding - Pulling ALL of a certain Parties List type into a Letter

Dear Michael,

PI would like their settlement letters (among others) to pull in the names of all the Lein Claimants (which we have as "LC" in the system) in the Case Card's Parties list.

How would I setup the getparty command properly in order to do this?

Also - Could I do it so they are automatically numbered? (1.,2.,3., etc.)

Thanks!

Any tips on this? Usually the PI department has all of the lien claimants listed in the Parties list so they would want to pull only their names/firm names into the document. Is there some sort of "pull all" code?

Thanks!

Here's an example with multiple employers and just replace employer with the category like LC for the lien claimants:

<>
<>
<>
<>
<>
<>
<>
<>
<>
<>
<>

You can then easily number them by just setting up the codes to number and pull whatever information you like for each party.

Thanks Michael! Do you have to have a line of code for each one you are pulling in? Will it "STOP" if there are no more of that type? So If I setup 15 copies and there are only 10... will it pull in just the 10 and not create any additional blank lines... etc.

Thanks again!

Not at present - you can use advanced coding to not print anything if it is blank. The other option could also be to just have them select what they want to appear in the list. Otherwise, you would have to make a custom command at this time to make it work.
