Dear Experts,
I am not familar withe print layout and would like to know where I can learn more on this module ...??

Dear Ms Liu,
I would recommend to look at the document
How to Create Query Print Layouts
on the customer partner portal under the version 2007a - How to Guide:
https://websmp109.sap-ag.de/smb/sbocustomer
Also you can search for notes with the component SBO-GEN-PLD*

Could you please help me.
Thanks

Hi
I solved the problem. But the issue was when i ran the dunning wizard the layouts messed up. For example if I had a dunning letter with 3 lines (overdue documents). The last line would copy itself 4-6 times (it would show the last document 4-6times so the total lines in the dunning letter would be 7-9 lines). But I solve the issue. Somehow the attention person (which I got from the contact persons (ocrp) and not from the document contact person (oinv) ) did the issue. When i switch it to the oinv the issue was gone.
kind regards

Reporting Agent - Print Layout - Issue in Displaying Key Figures in Rows

Hi,
We have issue while printing reports using Reporting Agent. As part of Query Definition we have Structure of key figures in Rows. But while creating Reporting Agent , in Print Layout option Under Table Rows we are not able to drag Structure of key fig.
What could be the solution to this issue. How can we use key figures in rows?
Thanks in advance.
Samir

Hi,
putting product in the rows will slove the issues as the unit cost depends upon the prdoduct and therefore it will uniquely identify each of the material and then it will get multiplies with the qty and therefore you will get the correct result.
this kind of issue you will always face when you are going to multiply cost with the Qty and as the cost differ with the individual material.
Also putting material into the rows will cause the no. of rows to increase as all the materials will show up in the individual rows for the particular month.
Also you can make a claculated key fgure for the multiplication and use before aggregation.
But for that your both the key figures should be in the same cube i.e. in the same rows or the before aggregation will not work you will not even get an option of before aggregation in the CKF if the key figures belong to two different cubes.
Since your qty and cost are coming from two different cubes before aggreagtion will not work here.
And if you do before aggregation then you report will become quite slow as it will do all the multiplication anf then will bring the result.
So it depends on your requirement and your design how to proceed.
Hope it helps
Thanks

Supplier Statement - Print Layout Issue

Dear Guys,
Im trying to display a supplier ref no. on the suppliers liability ageing statement through the "BP Ref No" field. I am trying to grab the ref no entered through the AP Invoice field "Supplier Ref No"
This field is sent through to Journal Entry "Reference 2" field and this is where im trying to pick it up in the Print Layout. This is however not working, im only seeing a blank in the print-out when i point to this field.
Any ideas why this is not working?
TX in advance.
Lebo

If you talking about Vendor liability Aging report then please use the By purchasing document tab in the Selection window and you will see the Ref number both in the Aging Report and the Vendor Statement

Dunning wizard print layout issue.

Hi every one
I need some help regarding the dunning wizard layout. Iu2019m having an issue where the last line in layout duplicates itself 4-6 times. The weird thing is that first lines are fine but only the last one that does it.
Kind regards

Dear Alexander,
Thanks for the reply.
In this I am using the FM 'CONVERT_ABAPSPOOLJOB_2_PDF'. I have checked the settings from SPAD that is also same in both servers for particular output device. But the patches are diffrennt in both the servers, the server from which layout is not coming properly having the high level patches in compare to the other server(which is working fine).

Print layout designer - rows repeating

We have modified a delivery document and have referenced Delivery Rows: Item/Service Description to print in the Repetitive Area. We must be doing something wrong, because it is printing the rows 70-80 times each. If a delivery has 2 rows, it is printing row 1 70-80 times and then row 2 70-80 times. Obviously, we only want it to list one time on the delivery slip. What makes this odder is that we have done the exact same thing with A/R Invoice and it works perfectly.
Any ideas?
Thanks!
Jennifer

Jennifer,
If you look at the Item/Service description field on the Delivery PLD rows, it is available by default. Are you talking about a different field by any chance?
If NOT, I wonder if you deleted any fields from the PLD which could have corrupted your report.
Please check and see if the default delivery PLD out of the box is working correctly with your data.
Please let me know.

Print layout - Goods issue & Issue for Production

I designed two print layouts separately 1 in Goods issue for Goods issue in inventory module
and 1 in Issue for production for Issue for production in production module.
If i take a print preview or print in Issue for production , it will reflects the print layout designed in Goods issue.

Hi Kavitha,
I think, are you duplicate the Goods issue PLD Template to Issue for Production PLD Template on Duplicate Layout Template.
Best, Try to create a New PLD from Issue for Production(System) PLD.

Minor Layout Issue when Printing Invoices in Chrome (v20.0.1132.47)

This is a relatively minor issue in the big scheme of things but a client of ours has reported a layout issue when bulk printing invoices in Chrome. It could be default browser behaviour which BC has no control over but I thought I’d submit it anyway.
It occurs when you’re viewing the default Order Report (http://www.yourdomain.com/AdminConsole/#!/CRM/OrderList.aspx) in the BC v3 interface and you want to print invoices in bulk (see screenshot below).
When you print invoices in bulk in Chrome they print on overlapping pages, as opposed to Firefox where each invoice will print on a separate page, which makes management much easier for our client. I’ve tried tinkering with the print settings inside of Chrome but I can seem to change it.
Does anyone know a way around this or are we dealing with default browser behavior that is out of our hands?
Cheers,
Matt

Could someone assist please?
I am having a similar problem.

Query Print Layout-Linking a new header field with ref to repetitive area

Hi,
In a query print layout, the query result based on pending items from a specific vendor is to be displayed.
On trying to insert a new database field (eg. Vendor Name), in the header area based on the pending item details in the repetitive area, the print output shows up a random vendor name (not related with the query result).
The RELATE TO property-option of the header field does not list the repetitive area fields, and the LINK TO option does not help either.
Please advise any other way to link the new db field to display the correct vendor name (contact person, address) as used in the query.
thanks,
Avinash
Edited by: Avinash Sashee on Jun 30, 2009 1:14 PM

Yes, the fields are part of the query.
Eg. The pending items from a specific vendor(with vendor code, name) is listed in the repetitive area of the layout. But the requirement is to have the Vendor Name and Address details in the Header portion(i.e. Letter to Vendor). Please help me on this.
thanks,
Avi.

Annoying Print Issue - "Multiple files are bound...."

Anyone know how to disable the extra page that prints with PDF packages that's titled "Multiple files are bound together in this PDF package"?
Basically, when I print out the documents that are packaged, this page prints out first - and it's very annoying...
I am using Acrobat 8 Pro, so, it can't be a version issue.. also does this printing from Acrobat Reader 9...
Thanks for any help in this.
Jill

I found something that seems to address the issue we were having.
"In Acrobat v8, you can choose to create a PDF Package that allows you to choose whether to use a default cover sheet or use the first PDF file (in it's entirety) as the cover sheet. In Acrobat v9, it no longer appears to be an option to choose a cover sheet - the default cover sheet is ALWAYS part of the portfolio."
I have Adobe 8 Pro and have tried it and it worked like a charm for me.
The steps I followed are were: File> Combine Files> Add Files (select all files to be added to the PDF Package)> Next> select Assemble Files into a PDF Package (be sure the document you want as the "cover page" is the 1st one listed, if not, "Move Up")> Select Cover Sheet (in the lower right of the window) select "Use First Document"> Create> Save.
After following these steps, you will find the Cover Sheet is the 1st part of your PDF Package and the rest will be listed to the left. When you Print All Documents, you will no longer get the "Multiple files are bound together in this PDF Package" cover sheet beforehand.

Print module issues

Hi,
for me there are three issues that are missing / should be improved with the print module:
The sharpening quality and setting options are still behind i.e. Qimage. Having in mind what Qimage is costing, it should be fairly ease for Adobe to reach the better Qimage output sharpening quality.
Soft proofing is still missing and should be added in the next major release at the latest.
There should be something like a loop view for the print layout screen. When using large format printer formats the rulers become extremely small that an exact positioning is almost impossible.
Looking forward to these, in the given priority.

The print resolution is no longer displayed making it difficult to decide if I need to modify the resolution prior to printing.
Why would you modify the resolution? One of the huge advantages of Lightroom is that you don't have to do things like this anymore. You simply choose the output resolution in the Print Job panel and Lightroom takes care of the rest. How (and why) exactly are modifying resolution?
As to your second question, I am getting a print preview when I turn it on in the printer driver. Although I would never use it, it is working here.
It might help to submit some system info and some printer info:

Print Layout Designer or Crystal.....! What to do?

Dear All,
We need to link our User forms to Print layouts in order to make our reports work exactly the way SAP reports work. Is there a way to enable the print and print preview toolbar buttons and make them show our Report Layout? So far the response from SDK Forum is not encouraging and many questions regarding the same issue remain unanswered there.
After looking for the solution in the SDK Forums we came across these two replies from Mr. Nick He and Mr.Frank Moebius. Both are of the opinion that currently SAP does not offer a support for this feature and better use a third party tool. We are not in a position right now to opt for any third party tool but if we get a clear response from your side regarding this matter, we can go for it. Kindly have a look at the following links:
Re: Print Layout Design for user form in SapBusinessOne2005A(6.80.317) sp:01.?
Re: Add PLD Layouts in 2005 through sdk
The recommended solution within SAP B1 to develop Add-on reports is through User Queries and creating a Print Layout and run them via Query Manager Window. This approach in our view has the following drawbacks that make it less friendly with the end user:
1. Add-on forms appear in the left pane/menu, whereas reports would have to run through Query Manager only, which is in fact a small toolbar button on the top right side. We can add the Query Manager link to user menu but it doesnt solve the problem.
2. A user with full authorization over the Print Layout can accidentally overwrite it by clicking the Create Report Button, whereas in case of SAP Reports the Layouts remain unchanged and only saved as a new Layout and set as Default Layout for a report. Add-on Reports cannot do this.
3. Different behavior of Layouts in Query Manager on Single Click and Double Click. In the Query Manager, if a user just selects a query by a Single Click and views a Print Preview (Layout) then the custom user Layout appears. But if a user Double clicks a query then the Query Window appears, exposing the query and making it editable. Also the Preview(Layout) is different in this case. The user can either view the Window or Table Layout in this case. Hence this exercise would make the user confused and prone to errors.
4. The Parameter/Criteria window that is SAP generated is not enough to fulfill user friendly interface requirements. Is there a way to add List boxes or Combos to that form. The parameter selection Checkboxes also behave in a strange way that even the experts find difficult to manipulate. If they are of no use, whats the point in having them on the form in the first place.
All these points are leading us to confusion over the decision as to whether go for Query Based Reports or use Third Party tools. Kindly help us out in this regard. Your response would help us save some valuable time for our Add-on Development.

<<< If there is a solution then it has to be from SDK. We can only opt for third party components and frameworks only if any of the SAP representatives ensure us that the current version of SDK does not offer such support.>>>
The answer to that is to lodge your query as an Issue to SAP directly as a support question or go through your local SAP representative. If the functionality is not offered by SAP you can do a Development Request ( DRQ) and SAP will develop it if they think it will become userful.
<<<If this Forum is not meant to be answered by SAP representatives then kindly tell me any other Technical Support Portal from where i can get the answer directly. >>>
This forum is accessed mostly by SAP Business One Developers on SDK. However we are fortunate that some SAP employees who are very knowledgeble take some time off to answer queries.
Since it is a Forum, no one is obliged to answer. As indicated above , Try SAP directly if you need a definite answer.
<<<>>>
Since you mentioned Crystal: We as SAP Business One SDK developers, have come across similar issues and opted for a Inhouse developed Crystal Solution. It has been so popular we are selling it as a Generic add-on to B1.

Indika.

Print Layout Designer Preview

Hi experts,
We have a report using the Print Layout Designer, before printing it we view it first. When we preview the report, amounts can't be seen fully however, when we pint it, it's complete. Why is this so? Hope you could give me response in soonest.
Thanks,
Kathy

Hi Kathy,
If your print results do not match your printer preview, it always links issue with different printer driver. It is OK as long as your printing results are good. If I were you, I would only care about the actual printing results. That is because, you may have different printers to use. All of them may have slightly different results.
Thanks,
Gordon

10.9.1: Mail 7.1 screws up Print layout / formatting

Mail 7.1 in Mac OS X 10.9.1 screws up the layout of Messages you try to Print.
The two most common symptoms are that:
1) Blank space is inserted after the Headers and before the first line of the body of the message, so that the body of the message starts on the 2nd page. These are apparently blank lines (not a Page Break) because if you reduce the scaling below 100% the body of the message starts to show on the bottom of the 1st page, but still with a large chunk of bogus, blank space between it an the headers. And,
2) Extra blank pages are printed at the end of the message. This could be 1 to several blank pages. The number of extra blank pages is constant for each message, but differs between messages. These DO appear to be Page Breaks -- not simply a large chunk of blank lines.
These problems happen regardless of which printer is selected -- even happening if you Print via "Save As PDF".
These problems are NOT cured by Resetting the Printing System and then re-installing the printers.
For problem (1), the error seems to be uniquely associated with the use of "US Letter" Paper Size -- and only when used in Portrait orientation. If you switch to Landscape orientation, or if you use Portrait orientation with either US Legal Paper Size (which is larger) or A4 Paper Size (which is smaller) the bogus blank space after the Headers goes away.
However, problem (2) is NOT altered by switching either Paper Size or orientation. You still get the same number of bogus, blank pages at the end.
So far, I've only seen problem (1) when attempting to print Messages saved in my Sent folder. Problem (2) appears both with messages in the Inbox and Sent folders.
These problems only ever appear when the Message is printed. Messages viewed on screen have no such issues. The print formattting problems appear regardless of whether you Print the Message directly from the list of Messages in the Mail folder, or if you first double click on the Message to open it in its own window and THEN Print it.
Note that I have "Organize by Conversation" *NOT* selected in the view menu, so Reply and Forward messages include the prior text attached at the end -- forming one, longer Message. However, both problems (1) and (2) are exhibited on Messages which are comprised of a single Message *AND* Messages which included embedded text from prior Messages in their Reply or Forward chains. NOTE: Problem (1) only seems to show between the FIRST Headers and the start of the Message body -- not between any embedded Headers and the following text of their attached, Reply or Forward content.
Both problems also show both on Messages with attachments and Messages without attachments.
Has anyone found a way to cure these two problems?
Of course you can workaround problem (2) by adjusting the Print dialog to only print the non-blank pages. And you can kinda sorta work around problem (1) by selecting a Paper Size other than US Letter and then making judicious application of scaling in the Paper Handling sub-portion of the Print dialog, but these are manual steps you need to do DIFFERENTLY for EACH Message you want to print.
Deep sigh....
--Bob

I should add that these Print formatting issues do *NOT* show on every Mail 7.1 message in Mavericks 10.9.1.
So far, I've not been able to ferret out just what it is about a Message that cause Print formatting to screw up. Things I believe I've ELIMINATED include:
1) Newly created Messages vs. old Messages.
2) Messages with or without attachements
3) Messages with or without signatures
4) Messages which include prior Messages in a Reply or Forward string, or not (i.e., single, original Messages)
5) Mesages with multiple recipients or not or with CC: recipients in the Header or not.
However this problem is by no means "random". Any Message that shows one of the Three Problems I've detailed above will exhibit that Problem every single time you try to Print it. Any Message which Prints cleanly, will continue to Print cleanly every time as well. So there is SOMETHING about the data in the failing Messages which is triggering this problem.
One new behavior I've noted is that for some Messages a new notice appears on screen -- briefly -- the first time you try to Print them. It appears so briefly that I may have the exact text wrong, but it is something like "Generating Print Content". I'm beginning to suspect the Printing problems show ONLY on Messages that need to go through that "extra step" the first time you try to Print them. But I don't know what that Message implies -- i.e., is there a new, "printable" file being generated by Mail specific to that Message which might persist across different Print attempts? If so, the error may be due to how THAT file is created.
This new notice only seems to appear the FIRST time you try to Print a Message -- and evidently not on every Message (or pehaps it is so brief on some Messages that I just don't see it).
