Utilizing Document Variables in the Document Builder – BizStackPro Help

Utilizing Document Variables in the Document Builder

Q: What are document variables and how are they used?

Document variables are placeholders (for example, client_name or project_name) you insert in a template. When you generate the document, they’re replaced with specific values so content stays consistent and automated.

Q: How do I create document variables?

Go to Payments → Documents & Contracts → + New (or Templates). In your template, insert variable names where dynamic content should appear (for example, customer_name, project_name).

Q: Can I customize variables per project?

Yes. Define values for each variable (for example, client_name, total_cost, delivery_date) before generating to personalize each document.

Standardize and scale your paperwork. Insert placeholders once—then generate on-brand proposals, agreements, and invoices by updating values per client or project.

Creating Documents Without Rewriting the Same Information Every Time

When creating proposals, agreements, or invoices repeatedly, manually updating names, dates, and details can slow things down and lead to mistakes.

Document variables allow you to insert placeholders that automatically update with the correct information each time a document is generated.

Without variables, documents often require copying, editing, and double-checking every field—especially when handling multiple clients or projects.

This guide will walk you through how to use document variables so you can generate consistent, accurate documents with less manual work.

To begin, review what document variables are and how they function inside your templates.

What Are Document Variables?

Document variables are placeholders you insert into a template where details change (like names, dates, totals, or scope). When you generate the document, BizStackPro replaces each variable with the values you provide—so your documents stay consistent and fast to produce.

Examples: client_name, project_name, service_description, total_cost, delivery_date

Follow along: Build one “master” template, then reuse it for every client by changing only variable values.

Access the Document Builder

Go to Payments → Documents & Contracts.
Open Templates or click + New to create a new document/template.

Create Variables in Your Template

Insert variable names where content should change from one document to the next. Keep names clean and consistent so they’re easy to recognize later.

Use a simple naming style: lowercase + underscores (example: project_name).
Be specific: client_address is clearer than address.
Reuse keys across templates: the same variable name should mean the same thing everywhere.

Pro tip: Keep a “variable list” (even a simple note) so you don’t accidentally create duplicates like clientname vs client_name.

Set Values When Generating a Document

When you generate a document instance, you’ll provide values for each variable. BizStackPro replaces every placeholder automatically.

Example values:
client_name: TechCorp Inc.
project_name: Website Redesign
service_description: Responsive redesign + SEO cleanup
total_cost: $10,000
delivery_date: March 31, 2026

Example: Proposal Template Layout

Title: Proposal – project_name
Client: client_name
Services: service_description
Total: total_cost
Delivery Date: delivery_date

Once your template is set, you can duplicate it for variations (different packages, regions, or departments) without rebuilding from scratch.

Popular Use Cases

Client proposals: Generate branded proposals by changing a handful of values.
Service agreements: Standardize terms while customizing names, scope, and dates.
Invoices / statements: Fill in customer details, dates, line items, and totals consistently.
