Using Models

You can use models anywhere in your template. They are helpful because they group and specify information you want to organize or keep separate from other information in your app intake. To use a Model, you need to ask a question.  The question uses an Object Variable to point to the Model.

For example, if you have a Model named party where you have variables for personal information, you can create an Object variable named Recipient based on that Model. All of the variables from the Recipient Object variable will include the name Recipient and then the name of the variable, i.e., {[Recipient.FullName]}. This clarifies the information included should be the recipient’s information. An Object variable named Sender that is also based on the party Model allows you to separate the Recipient input information from the Sender input information, but still uses the same variables (names, addresses, etc.) for them. This means that you do not have to create a RecipientName variable and a SenderName variable for types of information that get used repeatedly.
