When creating new Document or Reports via the Documents app, you might find that when you download them, they have a somewhat cryptic filename, as in the example below
To resolve this, go into the Document Templates area of Recycly and select the document template that you need to fix
Then on the Advanced Properties tab, check if the report has a Printed Report Name set. If not, then this will be the reason the filename is a bit cryptic.
For Printed Report Name, you can use something like the below
'%s - Inventory Report' % (object.name)
This format will result in a filename like JOB001234 - Inventory Report.pdf
