No docs on how to use derive attribute in pep config #37

After reviewing the PEP documentation with @mariamurach, we couldn't find information about derived attributes or how to add them to the PEP config. Consequently, this is confusing for users.

Does this not satisfy?

I think it covers a very complicated example very well, but I couldn't figure out from the documentation a simple use case of adding a path to file with a dynamic name based on other variables from sample table that's the same for all samples.
