TechDoc


  1. Revisited POC for End to End Publishing of UserManuals via PDF exports using CSS in eSankalan - Mrinalika (Click: pdflayoutconfig) ( Click : pdfstyleconfig-CSS). Shared the outcomes and best way forward. The automation is breaking the expected PDF outcome badly and there is a need to manually update styles. For this reason, the automation approach may not work. Recommended approach is author in eSankalan, export to Word, update styles, look-and-feel, publish to PDF.
  2. Created Release Notes (Click : Template) and Feature List (Click: Template) - Rupam, Sunita
  3. Update to Billing And Collection Service API document (Click:Billing And Collection Document) - Rupam
