Can I not access the same fields on a custom pdf as the default pdf? item.assembly_displayname

edited Nov 19, 2025 10:46AM in Ask A Guru 2 comments

Hi all,

I'm working on customizing an (Outsourced) Purchase Order pdf template. I'm currently trying to get item line information about the assembly.

On my Purchase Order, circled in red are the details I'm currently struggling to access on my template.

And I can see these fields in the xml of the PO

However, printing item.assembly_displayname and item.item_displayname returns no values. I also, in the template builder, can't find the fields to add manually.

Yet if I look at the default template (which I can't find or don't have access to edit since it's the default?) that does appear to have access to these fields.
