Generating documents from linked packages.

[Andrew Booth]

I’m new to EA and eaDocX so apologies if this is nothing new but is it possible to generate a document from one EA package that has links to another package and include the elements from that second package?

Hello.
Yes eaDocX will print information about related elements which can be located anywhere in your model.
Here is a link to info which describes various ways in which you can structure your documents using eaDocX:
https://store.eadocx.com/help/index.html?structuring-your-document.htm

There is information about printing related elements (and the relationships to those elements) in the help here: https://store.eadocx.com/help/index.html?related_elements.htm
And in more detail here: https://store.eadocx.com/help/index.html?related-element-data.htm
(there are also sub-pages which go into even more detail)

In addition you can print multi-hop relationship data –

(PS the help says that this is an experimental feature but that message is old and will be removed shortly – multi-hop is now an established part of the core eaDocX function)

Best regards
