Finding the Transaction ID
Overview
When you are creating functions, writing BML code, or configuring Document Templates, use a Transaction ID to test your work.
A Transaction ID is the internal reference to a quote or transaction that tells the function, code, template, and so on, which quote to use when testing or previewing the work you are doing.
