Print severalcopies of the same document

sliew

HI,

I would like to print several copies of a document wihout asking the user to enter the number of copies.

Is there a way to set up the no of copies to be printed while calling the REPORT.RUNMODAL....?

Hi Luc,

Is there a parameter that I can set before running the Report. Or shall I run the report n times?

Please advise

You need to create a function in the report that accepts a integer. In your report, you use a Integer Dataitem with SETRANGE(Number,1,intYourVar). Look in eg. report 206 how Navision does it for the Invoice report.

Hi Luc,

Unfortunately, I don't have the Report 206 in my Navision Financial. Strange. Does the NF Package comes with this Report?

Yes, it should in the Standard package. alternatively you can see it in 204-208 and 404-408.

Hopefully you'll have one of these.

No I don't have them.

Shall I request them from where I bought the Package?

You can create a function in your report that accepts one parameter, namely the No. of copies. Then you declare a variable pointing to your report. Before you run your report (using the variable), you can execute your function and pass the No. of copies.

Or you can write to a table the No. of copies, run your report, and at the beginning of your report you read from that table the required No.

Hope this make sense.
