PLD: Line items trauncate in repetitive area

Hi All,
I'm having issue with the line items truncate in the repetitive area.
Is there a way to fix the number of items in repetitive area?
Thanks in advanced.

HI Tripti Shrestha
>> Open your PLD and Create new Formula Field and put this formula,
=>> Create new Formula Field in Repetetive Area Footer and put Formula.
=>> Create the Seperate FORMULA Field in Repetetive Area Footer,
for ex. Line No. Item Code, Discription, Qty, Unit Price, Total
you should put the FORMULA in all FORMULA FIELDS in Repetetive Area Footer.
Substring('\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n',0,2*(16-LineNum()))
AND
*IF Repetitive Area Footer fields is blank means that
field should not display in Print AND Repetitive Area Footer decrease in Print*
Do this,
->> Link to all Fields in Repetitive Area Footer.
for example, DocTotal Field.
->> Choose DocTotal Field in Repetitive Area Footer than
->> Goto Properties Window and Link to DocTotal fieldID at General Tab.
->> put the Tick Mark in Area Height Adjustment at Format Tab.
Save and Run the Print Preview.

Sort option in Repetitive Area on AR Invoice PLD is disabled / greyed out

Hi Experts,
I have an issue whereby in my PLD the sort option under Print Layout Design Manager -> Repetitive Area -> Sort is greyed out / disabled in the AR Invoice PLD. Does anyone know why this might be? I've not seen this before and I can't find any notes relating to specifically to this issue in an AR Invoice PLD.
2007A PL06 Hot Fix 01.
Many thanks for any help,
Caroline

Hello Khushwant,
In SAP when your business Process is Sales Order --> Delivery --> AR Invoice
SAP would print the Batch Numbers along with the Delivery document.
But your Business Process is Sales Order --> AR Invoice
SAP would print the Batch Numbers along with the Invoice document.
Whichever document releaves inventory, SAP will Open the Batch selection screen when adding that document and the Batch Report will be printed on a seperate sheet along with that document.
The functionality change in SBO 2007, is that the Batch number print on the Delivery / Invoice document itself instead of on a seperate Page as in 2005.
Could you please explain your Business Process in relation to what I have mentioned earlier.
Printing the Batch Number as part of the Invoice document itself in SBO 2005 is going to be a tough task.
Let me know if where and how you want to print this information.
Regards
Suda

Two Repetitive areas in one PLD

Hi Experts
I created a custom query and based on that i created a query print layout. Now in the PLD i have only one repetitive area, but i want to group this report first based on the account code and then based on the BP code and display the sub totals seperately.
Can you all help me to complete this.
Thanks & Regards
Kanishka Wickrama

Hi kanishka wickrama,
Sorry Kanish, i thought normal PLD.
Yes, you con not add the NEW Repetetive Area on QPLD. it is not possible on QPLD.
so, try to assign the Sort by option.
Note: All SELECT statement fields will be Stored and Display in Repetetive Area1. and
Parameter Fields are in Repetetive Area0 so you can Try to Copy & Paste the Field_ID's to Repetetive Area Header (or) Repetetive Area Footer.
for example.
Try this,
->> Open the QPLD and Goto Field index Window, then
->> Select the Repetetive Area Header & Repetetive Area Footer increase the Height on Properties Window.
->> Create the Formula fields in Repetetive Area Header & Repetetive Area Footer.
->> Which Field you want to print in header or footer. Drag the Field ID(in Repetetive Area) Copy & Paste to Formula Field.
->> Select the Repetetive Area 1 on Field Index Window.
->> Goto the Print Layout Designer on Tool bar.
->> Click Repetetive Area. -> Sort...
->> Open the Sort Widnow and Select the Requrie fields by sort.
ELSE Try this,
->> Click the Repetetive Area Footer 1.
->> then, Right Click in Repetetive Area Footer 1.
->> Choose the GROUP -> 1. then,
->> Create the Formula Fields in Repetetive Area Footer 1 and copy paste field ID's from Repetetive Area 1.
->> Select the Repetetive Area 1 on Field Index Window.
->> Goto the Print Layout Designer on Tool bar.
->> Click Repetetive Area. -> Sort...
->> Open the Sort Widnow and Select the Requrie fields by sort.
Ex.
->> Select Field Name, Sort by, Order, Summary, New Page.
1st you can Select Field Name (Sort by) -> Account Code, and
2nd Select the Field Name (Sort by) -> BP Code. and both are
Sort Type - Alpha.
Order -> Descending (or) Ascending.
Summary -> Select the Tick Mark.
New Page -> UnCheck the Tick Mark because if you need the second page Print of GROUP BY.
You can select the Tick Mark in New Page.
SAVE IT and see the Print Preview. it will be get exact Print. .

Hi,
It seems that noone in this forum can answer your question (including myself )?
Maybe this is related to the fact that the main focus here is the SAP Business One SDK?
In case the question is still open:
I would recommend that you try these forums - which should fit better:
For SAP partners only there's a forum where you can discuss implementation questions etc.:
Got a question about customization / implementation? Maybe ask it in CPSN!
...and here's the SAP Business One Forum in the "SAP Community" (public to anybody):

PLD-"Formula Type Calculation Fields in Repetitive Area"

Hi there...
I just would like to know if there is a limit as to the number of conditional operations in the repetitive area?
Im currently working on the General Ledger in the Financial Reports. Our client wants to limit the number of decimal places to two for all the output of the print out. After using the Round operator, what happen was all the entries with a 0(zero value) gets 0.00. Since they also dont want this 0.00 to appear, I did try the conditional operator == to test all the entries and replace it with free text with a blank content. It is perfectly working if I'm only testing for 1 column but has problems if I already test another column. I just would like to know if there is a limit as to the number of conditional operations in the repetitive area?
Thanks in advance...

Just want to share how we were able to solve this problem. My companion(Ryan Megallen a.k.a. Bogs ) taught this to me....
since you will be evaluating the contents of the column its necessary that your going to make use of 2 conditional operations to test both the == 0 entries and those entries which is greater than 0.
Consider the following as output on the report
ex...
   Details_______Debit_____________Credit
   xxx account___343.56_____________ 0.00
   yyy account_____0.00____________123.00
The client wants that the output should be:
   Details_______Debit_____________Credit
   xxx account___343.56
   yyy account_____________________123.00
They doesnt want to make those 0.00 entries appear on there report.
To achieve this you need to test each column twice. The !=0.00 would be link to the field that displays the value other than 0 and the ==0 would be link to the field that simply uses a Free text without a no content.For this to work you will have 4 conditional operator to used.Since we cant control which of those field that we used on the columns will be displayed first.

Dear,
Add the UDF's on the marketing document you want the tax break up.
Apply FMS using below queries and call these UDF's on your PLD.
FOR BED
DECLARE @Amount as Numeric(19,2)
DECLARE @Rate as Numeric(19,0)
DECLARE @TAmount as Numeric(19,2)
set @TAmount =$[$38.21.Number]
SELECT    @Rate=STA1.Rate
FROM         OSTC INNER JOIN
                      STC1 ON OSTC.Code = STC1.STCCode INNER JOIN
                      STA1 ON STC1.STACode = STA1.StaCode Where   OSTC.Code=$[$38.160.0] And STA1.SttType='9' order by STA1.EfctDate desc
set @Amount=(@TAmount * @Rate)/100
Select @Amount
For Cess
DECLARE @Amount as Numeric(19,2)
DECLARE @Rate as Numeric(19,0)
DECLARE @TAmount as Numeric(19,2)
set @TAmount = $[$38.U_BED.Number]
SELECT    @Rate=STA1.Rate

set @Amount=(@TAmount * @Rate)/100
Select @Amount
For HCess
DECLARE @Amount as Numeric(19,2)
DECLARE @Rate as Numeric(19,0)

Invoice print extra page w/o any data in repetitive area or end of report

I did not use Page Footer and reduced those "hidden fielded" height to 26 with checkmark for Adjust Area Height, but the invoice will print extra page with blank repetitive area and page footer, Report Header and Repetitive Header showed.
How to remove the extra page?
I have another one that do not print the extra page but each page has same Invoice Total, Frt, Tax with Remittance Address that should only show in the last page. I know this is because I put Invoice Total in Page Footer. When I remove Page Footer to End of Report area then I got extra page with no data in repetitive area or end of report.

Hi Lily,
i think problem be create in Repetetive Area.
Do this in your PLD,
->> Open your PLD and save as a duplicate PLD (Just testing PLD).
->> Right Click in PLD and Choose the Display Hidden Fields in PLD.
->> Reduce the Height of all fields in Repetetive Area, Page Header and End of Reports.
for example,
->> Select all fields including Hidden fields in Repetetive Area & Repetetive Area Footer and
Reduce the Height in General tab on Properties Widnow.
put the Height -> 15 and Font Size -> 10
->> Reduce the Repetetive Area Height and put the Tick mark in Area Height Adjustment in Format Tab.
Try to remove all fieds(including Hidden fields) in Page Footer and Reduce the Height.
ex. Page Footer Height -> 0

Madhan.

Preprint AP check - stub/check repetitive area fram size

What is the rule to make each area size to fit the preprinted form? I think each form has certain height for So, Invoice, BOL probalby 720 and width like 600.   I have hard time to ajust the each area to fit with preprinted BOL or AP check.
If I have to print on the bottom of the form, that will be Repoet Footer or Page Footer?
I think two Repetitibe Areas, the first one is for Repetitive detail and the second one is for SubTotal or ColSum total use.
AP Check has Report Header with Adjust Area Height for 32, Repetitive area w/o adj. height 20, then Repetitive area w/o adj. height 188 then Page Footer w/o adj. height 500. How to enlarge first Repetitive area but decreae second Repetibe area while the check portion remain the same size. Should I make the Report Header Adj. Height unchecked?

Hi Lily,
The following steps are to be done when you use the Preprinted Paper
1.First Measure the Preprinted Paper size (Height & Width) Based on this size
you create your own paper size.
     1.Open Printer & Faxes through Control Panel(Start->Control Panel->Printer & Faxes)
     2.in Menubar Go to File->Server Properties
     3.Put tick Mark on Create a New Form
     4.Choose Units : as Metric
     5.Define the Paper size in Centi meter(Width & Height)
     6.In Form Name field Enter the Name of the Paper size
     7.Click Save Form.
     8.Open the PLD
     9.In Print Layout designer Menu choose the Newly Created Paper size
2.In PLD Layout checked the Area Height adjustment in (Page Header,Repetitive Area,End of
report etc..)

How to hide fields on Repetitive Area Footer on the last page?

Hello,
How can I avoid printing some fields on the last page, when this fields
are on the Repetitive Area Footer, and the Repetitive Area Footer is
defined to print on all the pages? I was hoping to do this with fileds linked
to (ContinueNextPage) field, but it doesn't work!
Regards,
Júlio Pinho

hI Júlio Pinho,
i think, it is not possible in Repetitive Area Footer on PLD.
but, it is possible in Page Footer on PLD.
IF you dont need print some Fields in Last Page on printout.
Try this,
->> Open the require PLD.
->> Create require Fields in Page Footer.
for example,
=> Create DocTotal Field in Page Footer on PLD.
=> Link to SystemString (ContinueNextPageNotice) Formual FieldID in DocTotal Filed.
Save and Run the Print Preview.
Regards,
Madhan.

After i created a repetitive area, it can't save..

Hi All,
After i created a repetitive area, and press save, it show a error message "Number of Repetitive Header must be equal 2 'Message 4667-11'
Please teach me how to fix? Thanks.

Dear Willie,
I would like to confirm whether you are adding the repetitive area to a User Report(Quert Print Layout) or
to any PLD template. In case you are adding it to a QPLD Template then I would like to inform that in
version 2005 this was a limitation to add more than one repetitive areas in print template of User Report.
So I would suggest you to check the same in 2007 Version.

Formatting a field in the repetitive area of the Print Layout Design

Our quantity fields in the repetitive area print out with a decimal point and 3 spaces after the decimal point (i.e. 10.000). How can I change the format of these fields so that there are no decimals included (i.e. 10) when we print an order?
Thanks.

Mike,
You could use the Formula ABS( )
Add a Formula type field
In the Formula select formala ABS()
syntax: ABS(Field_xyz)..here field Field_xyz is your number field
If your value was 10.000 the result will be 10. This formula ignores the decimal part.
The formula ROUND could be used if you want to ROUND the value to the nearest higher or lower integer
Consider number 10.450
ROUND(Field_xyz,2) will give 10
ROUND(Field_xyz,1) will give 11
