    Hi @Roger ,
    There is an event before the report selection that allow you to personalize the business logic: you could check for a field on order (i.e.) and select the Custom Report Layout before the report selection.
    This should help you.

    Have a nice day,
    Roby

    Hi Michael,
    No, the way in Robys answer was not that was i have needed. But in BC140, there a a new event who solved exactly what i want.

    Codeunit 951 "Document Report Mgt." has the event OnAfterGetCustomLayoutCode. With this event i was able to change the custom layout, which user can choose on an page who i have provided for that, like this:

    LOCAL [EventSubscriber] OnAfterSetCustomLayoutCode(ReportID : Integer;VAR CustomLayoutCode : Code[20])

    IF SelectionHeader.GET(PrintCode) THEN BEGIN
    IF SelectionHeader."To Thank Letter Rep. Lay. Code" <> '' THEN BEGIN
    CustomLayoutCode := SelectionHeader."To Thank Letter Rep. Lay. Code";
    END;
    END;

    Hope, this helps
    Many thanks, Roger

    Hi Roger,

    Unfortunately I work on NAV 2017 and not on BC, I think that I will create two different reports in place of two layout.

    Thanks for your reply and your help/

    Hi Michael

    May it could be a solution to implement your own publisher event "OnAfterSetCustomLayoutCode" in codeuint 9651. Then you'll have the same possibility as in BC.

    Many thanks, Roger

    Yes I see this codeunit and the function "TryUpdateRdlcLayout". I will try this option.
    Thanks again,

    On 2017 there is a function on TAB77 you call before printing.
    As I remember it’s called something like SetTempLayoutCode.

    Remember to set it back with a blank Code afterwards.
