You’ll need to utilize either a Workflow to make the PDF, or perhaps a new Automation Task.

Once you generate the file, then you can use an action inside the app to view the file.

To give you an idea of how this works, I actually have this exact setup inside an app of mine

Full Disclosure: this app is 3 years old and in desperate need of updating… but it’s functional so…

PS: forgot to show the action that sets the [Invoice_file_path]

Here’s a screenshot of the formula for the [Invoice_File_Path]:

…and here’s the formula for constructing the NAME of the invoice (from the workflow):

Notice how the they’re almost the same

• the only difference is that the [Filepath] column’s value actually includes the file path, and the file extension.
