Master documents are made up of one or more PDF templates from nearly all the modules available in your Microbizz solution. Before you can continue in creating master documents, you need to have created at least one PDF template in advance.
For creating and editing masters, you should navigate to the Setup-module and chooseDOCUMENTS > MASTERS.
Here you can view and manage masters.
