Doc Designer overview

Find out which documents you can design in Unleashed, which templates are included and what Doc Designer can do.

Written by Heather Worthington

Doc Designer lets you design how the documents you print or email from Unleashed look, such as Purchase Orders, Invoices and Packing Slips. You can add your logo, choose which details and columns appear, and keep a different template for each type of document.

Use this overview to find the document you want to design and the article that shows you how.

Templates that come with Doc Designer

Every transaction type starts with ready-made templates:

  • Classic: A standard business format.

  • Formal: A professional corporate layout.

  • Unleashed Default: The internal template Unleashed uses when you haven't chosen a default template for a transaction type.

You can't edit Classic, Formal or the Unleashed Default templates. You also can't export or duplicate the Unleashed Default template. To make a change, click Duplicate to create an editable copy of Classic or Formal, or click New to create a blank template.
