CurrentText One-line Cleanup
Use a Rearrange script to flatten multiline text.
CurrentText = CurrentText.replace(/[\r\n]+/g, " ");When to use
Use when object output needs one line.
Notes
This is code, so it has a copy button.

ConditionsDeletePerformanceRearrangeSelectionTroubleshooting
HTML Cleanup in CurrentText
Cleans simple HTML paragraph text in a Rearrange object.
CurrentText = CurrentText
.replace(/<\/p>/gi, "\n")
.replace(/<p[^>]*>/gi, "")
.replace(/ /gi, " ");When to use
Use when mail body content comes from simple HTML.
Notes
Do not use for complex HTML layout.
Delete Duplicate Detail Nodes
Use a Delete action with an XPath that matches duplicate rows.
Detail[FIELD_ID = preceding-sibling::Detail/FIELD_ID]When to use
Use when the XML contains repeated records and only the first should remain.
Notes
Confirm the current parent node in Transformer before applying.
Delete Empty Nodes
Matches elements whose normalized text is blank.
*[normalize-space(.) = ""]When to use
Use for cleanup passes when blank XML elements cause layout issues.
Notes
Be careful: parent nodes containing only child elements may also have blank string values.
Select Non-first Details
Matches all Detail records after the first.
Detail[position() > 1]When to use
Use for removing repeated header-style nodes under the same parent.
Notes
Do not use if each detail is meaningful.
Condition on Existing Value
Condition expression requiring a real value.
normalize-space(FIELD_NAME) != ""When to use
Use on Transformer actions that should only run when a field exists.
Notes
Whitespace-only fields become empty.
Condition on Text Match
Condition expression for a specific text value.
normalize-space(Status) = "Open"When to use
Use to trigger actions based on a status or flag.
Notes
XPath text comparisons are case-sensitive.
Set Dynamic HTML Button
Builds a reusable HTML button from a URL JobInfo.
var url = job.getJobInfo("<UrlJobInfo>");
if (url && !/^https?:\/\//i.test(url)) url = "https://" + url;
CurrentText = '<a href="' + url + '"><span style="text-decoration:none;font-weight:bold;">Open Link</span></a>';When to use
Use when a report/email object must become a clickable link.
Notes
Email clients vary in how they handle styling.
Filter Early
Use narrow XPath selection before heavy actions.
When to use
Use Delete, Sort, or Rearrange actions on the smallest possible node set.
Notes
This is a tip, so no copy button.
Preview vs Final Output
Preview may look correct while submitted/output data differs.
When to use
Check runtime JobInfos, ranges, selected nodes, and execution context.
Notes
This is explanatory guidance, so no copy button.
