Monarch Automator Report Burster, don't understand requiremts for a model in Pages mode

Trying to set up a report burst for a file with many sub reports but no index section.  Therefore selecting Pages type.  This requires a Model.  I have no idea what that means.  Can't find nay documentation that explains what model means in this context.  A co-worker is creating Models in Monarch Classic but I don't see how that approach applies, they are for further parsing of already reports split using the Defined mode.

Hope that makes sense, first post, new to trying to set up Automator processes.

    Hello @TomChickory

     

    In regards to your question about Models, they are the "models" that your colleague is creating within Monarch Complete(Classic Mode).  You would list the 'Model' that the reports that require the file burst to parse through. 

    Link to Documentation About Models.    

    I am going to forward your post to my colleague @Joe Lovati  who may be able to further explain the File Burster

    Kindly,
