Option 1: Upload your own .docx template

by using placeholders and upload it.

  1. Open the ‘DocExport' in your board.

  2. Click on the 'Upload template' button and select your .docx file from your computer.

  1. DocExport creates a real-time preview of your document. If you are creating an item level document, you can now choose for which item you want to create the document by selecting it in the dropdown menu next to your document preview.

  2. If you are happy with the result you can download the document as a PDF by clicking in the top right corner of the preview. If you want to make further adjustments before downloading or automating you can download or reupload the document again by clicking 'Customize template' in the top right corner of the document preview.

Option 2: Board Print

Export your board view in tabular format, grouped and filtered based on your own criteria, e.g. 'all tasks that are overdue grouped by status'. Including all data, items and colors.

Example Data that you can outpout in your board print

  • All tasks that are overdue grouped by status

  • All items that are due next week and their status is not in progress

  • All tasks that were created last month and their status is changed to stuck

  • The sum of deals grouped by status

  • and many more!

How to use the Board Print?

  1. Open the 'DocExport' view and click on the dropdown menu next to 'Select template' and select 'Board Print'. By default, the board report will be displayed here first anyway.

  2. Decide how you want to group the items on your board print. You can choose between the monday.com groups as well as all status and people columns on your board.

  3. Specify which columns you want to include in the table by checking them. For optimal results, please choose a maximum of 10 columns.

Option 3: Use a predefined template

You can also use a predefined document template and customize it in the next steps.

We created ready-to-use templates for different use cases, that are already built-in, e.g. Event Tickets with QR Codes, Quotes, Invoices, Shipping Notes, Project Reports, etc.

  1. Assign the columns from the template to the appropriate columns of your monday.com board. If you already have columns with the same name as in the template, DocExport automatically matches the columns for you.

  2. DocExport then creates a real-time preview of your document based on the data you chose. a) You can either download the document as it is by clicking the 'Download' button in the top right corner of the document preview b) or download the document as a Word file to make further adjustments, such as changing colors or fonts, by clicking 'Customize template' next to the download button.
