Creating Placeholders Automatically

With ENPS, you can automatically create a placeholder linked to a story slug.
To link placeholders automatically, you need to enable the Auto Create feature
in the ENPS MOS Configuration and add the Auto Create column to your
ENPS rundown template.

To create and link a placeholder automatically:

1. Create a new rundown.

Create a rundown as you normally would. See the ENPS documentation for
details.

2. Create a new story slug in ENPS.

3. Click the

Object AutoCreate

field, select the MOS ID from the drop-down

list, and press

Enter

.

A new placeholder is created in the NewsQ Pro Assignment List Plug-in and
is automatically linked and embedded into the script for this story.

You can then use the Assignment List Plug-in to edit properties for the new
placeholder, such as category or type.
