List of automation fields which require tables

Some automation fields available to you in Smokeball will display information in a table (e.g., a witness list). It is not possible to directly print out these tables from Smokeball itself; however, you can create printable Word documents with this information. Note: This type of automation is available only in Word documents, not PDFs.

In addition, these fields require the use of the table feature in Word to populate correctly in your document. This article is a directory to all the automation fields with this requirement, but you can review this related article to learn how to insert these types of automation fields into a document.

These fields correspond to what is available in the Smokeball toolbar in Microsoft Word. Fields under a sub-directory are indicated with “>”, e.g. Service List > Case Details > Court Information.
