Problem in printing layout

hi!
I have problem in printing purchase order when printing,
I get error ME 142.
If i use the print preview there is no error and i can see the form.
when i debugged it i saw that the problem in printing is when the form move to next page.
what might be the problem. i use standard print program
SAPFM06P, so ther is no problm with open_form .
thanks
yifat

Error in OPEN_FORM for document xxxxxxx.
i debugged the OPEN_FORM, and it came out of it with subrc = 0.
the wierd thing is that its only when printing the form,
not when print preview it.
thanks

Printing problem with Print Layout Border:

I can't get Pages to recognize the Border: function under Layout when I go to Print. I'm using an HP Photosmart C6280 with Driver Version 2.3.1 (which I believe is the latest version).
It appears that I have everything set up correctly. A month or so ago I had problems printing shadows and two-sided pages. The driver update fixed those problems. So I'm caught between wondering if I've got something set incorrectly or have stumbled across another bug.

MWU,
I received the following response from HP. I use a C7280, so the references here are to that model. You would need to substitute downloads appropriate to your C6280. Their recommendation is obviously quite involved, and it would be your choice as to whether you would want to do all this. I guess some of it depends on balancing your needs with what they suggest. I do not want to go through all this for my own printer, even though I have experienced the same border problem. In these forums, it is important that we only post suggestions that have been tried and evaluated. I have NOT evaluated what they suggest, but I said I would relay to you what they recommended, and that is what I'm doing. Your work-around may be the simpler choice. This is what they wrote:
There are pre-installed generic drivers called Guten drivers within the Macintosh os 10.5 which may be causing the software conflict or corruption leading to this issue. The most effective way of resolving this situation is to remove all files relating to HP printers and then install the latest drivers that are available from the HP website.

Down payment document differs from print layout since SBO 2007A PL45

Since upgrade from PL42 to PL45, we have ceveral problems.
- Print Layout wrong:
1. We have a sales order with 7 positions, 2 of these 7 positions are already delivered and paid.
Based on the sales order, we post a down payment invoice that has the correct 5 positions from the sales order. When selecting print preview (it doesn't matter, if it is a user defined print layout or a SAP standard layout), we get all the 7 positions that are in the sales order.
2. Also down payment invoice: We have one position with 3 items, the document shows the unit price correct and also the price for the position (price per unit x3) correct. The print layout only shows unit prices.
3. sales order has another currency rate then the down payment and the following invoice, as they will not be posted the same date. The documents show everything correct, but the print layout only shows the currency rate from the sales order (also in the following documents like DP invoice and final invoice).
- a lot of dump files....
Does somebody knows a solution for these problems or does somebody knows, if they will be solved in the PL46 or 47?
Thanks a lot.
Katrin

Hi katrin,
In case you are recieving Dump files with a system standard layout,kindly log a support ticket with
SAP support.Please attach the dump files and describe the scenario to reproduce the issue.

Problem with Query Print Layout

Hi, i have this type of problem.
I have create a query with 5 fields,i have saved it, and ,after, i have created a report on this query (Query Print Layout).
So, i have manipulated the report based on the preferences of the customer.
After this operation, customer tell me that he want to see one more field in the report, so i must add, in the original query, this field. But i note that i can't add a field. I can do it, but i must remake all the report.
There is a way to do this type of operation, without remake the report from the start?
Thanks
Regards
Marco

Hi Marco:
I asked our Print Layout Expert, and she tolds me that you have to create the report again.
Some time ago, in the report designer was a way to change the link to the query, but that option is disable now.
So, be patient and ask for this functionality to be implemented.

Default Query Print Layout problem

Hello:
    I have a query below SELECT T0.[ItemCode], T0.[Dscription], sum(T0.[Quantity]) as 'Quantity' FROM INV1 T0 WHERE month(T0.[DocDate]) =month([%0]) AND year(T0.[DocDate]) = year([%0]) and T0.[ItemCode] IS NOT NULL GROUP BY T0.[ItemCode], T0.[Dscription] ORDER By T0.[ItemCode].
    Which basically output monthly inventory invoiced qty. It works fine. However when I try ti link to the default system print layout and try to print. The column 'quantity' become very small and cut off most of the number. How do I make it bigger? I have been trying to modify it for quiet a while now. Nothing seems to work. I think it's length is preset base on the column lenth in the table! If that's the case how do I make it wider?
    Also the default layout for user query are pretty weired. I think it's dynamically allocating spaces depends on number of column. But what happens when you do functions such as sum, avg..etc. There is no present length. So they just disregard it?
Any help will be appreciated.. Thank You
Sincerely Yours
Bo Peng

Hi Bo,
I am asuming that u are not yet familiar with how to work with PLD (Print Layout Designer). I would suggest that u see some tutorials from the following link and then try to change that default layout according to ur own requirements

Problem with modifying the default design print layout

hello to everybody
i would like to ask you something about the design print layout.
i actually have made a draft payment by using the payment wizard. i have already saved it and by clicking the print layout some of the columns do not appear the the data in there.
to be more specific...i used the default print out generated by the system and modified it by adding some more columns such as name o business customer and bank account.
before adding the above fields, the print out was excellent(the default one generated by the system)
by adding the above fields, some of the columns such as code of bp and name of bp do not appear in the prinout layout except of the last records which is desplayed as it is.
i have to mention that by removing the field bank account(i have mentioned it as database) alla the records of the payment wizard appears as is but by adding the bank account column, only the last record appears to be with data
thanks in advance!

how is it possible to edit the system pld and to display the desired data only for the laast record?it is strange!
i have 5 payments to do. by checking the system 's PLD the data are fine. by adding my own fields(bank account) the row of the first 4 records do not appear at all(they are empty) except of the last one which is appeard with the desired information

How can I fix this. This is coming from the System template and we havent change anything.
Could you please help me.
Thanks
Sanjaya

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

Crystal Report print layout error during print preview

Hi Everyone,
When I try print preview a marketing document, it will work the first time, and then when I try to print preview again it brings up a window asking me to login into the database with the sa username and password.
When putting in the correct password, the login fails.
When I click cancel, SAP hangs up and requires a restart.
All print layouts were done in Crystal Reports, and imported via the report layout manager.
This occurs on all marketing documents where there is a crystal print layout.
Anyone will be able to help me with this?
Thanks
Best Regards

Hi Rahul,
Your solution worked. Thank you very much.
I also did not include a stored procedure into the connection that was needed in the layout.
This could have also added to the problem (for future reference).

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 for develop report based on query

Dear Experts/Gurus,
I am amazing about the manage previous reconciliation report. When I opened it using print layout designer, it looks like the report is not built using query, but I am not sure yet. This is very confusing. I created query similar with manage previous reconciliation (MPR), but when I link the query to print layout and try to make similar format/appearance with MPR report (reconciliation management (system)), it is not success.
Isn't the MPR report built not based on query ? I appreciate your answer. TIA
Rgds,

Hi,
I am not sure I understand what's the problem:
Is it the layout that is different or the data?
Regarding the data you can use SQL Profiler (maybe you did?) to find out what queries are fired, but please note that there are some stored procedures in the DB that are used for some specific functions - not sure whether the "MPR" uses any of these.
Then you must include some non-default filter in SQL Profiler...
...but you can also use the logging functionality in B1 for that purpose:
Just activate the logging (see the "log" folder in the B1 subdirectory) in the corresponding config file: choose the option to have the SQLs logged in conjunction with the logging being triggered in all cases (not just error).
Thus you will get all the SQLs - just plain - from the B1 application, but note that it will obviously slow it down!
HTH,
Frank

Query Print Layout column sum in report footer

Hi Experts,
I am utilizing a query and created the layout via Query Print Layout. I am using sort and group functions which filters my column sums for a certain field conditions. My problem is that when I want to make a total column sum for all the repetitive footers' column sum, the system shows a message that only repetitive areas can be average/ sum.
Is this the standard behaviour of the system? Or is this a limitation if we are using the print layout via Query print layout. Any workaround to get the final total for all pages column sum?
Please advise.
Thanks,
Don

hello
Don
what u want actually i dint understood as i now but u need colsum of ur repetitive fields or repetitive footer fields
I).if u want repetitive footer all columns sum take the contact of those fields ex:(concat(F_a+F_B -
)) so u can get ur total for repetitive footer fields
II).if u want repetitive area lines colsum for every field u take as colsum with respect to the unique id of repetitive area fields

Print Layout Designer - inconsistent output

Hi,
We have received consistent compaint from our client that the output of Print Layout Designer are inconsistent.
Eg: The same PLD template is used for An invoice print out from 2 different workstation. However, workstation A display the format properly, workstation B will have missing lines between boxes or the alignment is not displayed properly.
We have also recently encountered the problem that our client export the invoice to Acrobat and then print it. However, it displays properly for workstation with Acrobat version 8, 9, but missing lines for version 7.
Another scenario could be the form is displayed properly on the screen, but the physical print out to a printer is not consistent.
We really appreciate some share of thoughts here. Is switching to other report writer, eg: Crystal Report, the only option?
Edited by: Shwu Hua Gan on Aug 10, 2008 2:57 AM

Gordon,
Thanks for replying.
This is what happen to our client.
The font size of the customised PLD SAP Invoice is size 5. In order to preview the layout, they have to preview in PDF, once they are happy with the details and then print.
In some workstations, there are Adobe Reader version 8 or 9. In a couple of workstations, there are Adobe Acrobat version 9.
Let's say, there are 2 fields with the following properties:
Field A, Left = 0, Width = 10.
Field B, Left = 10, Width = 10.
Adobe Acrobat version 9 display the border of the field properly. However, those with Adobe Reader 8 / 9 will see gaps between fields.
If we change them as follows the field the gap;
Field A, Left = 0, Width = 10.
Field B, Left = 9, Width = 11,
Then those with Adobe Acrobat version 9 is missing the border for because Field A overlaps with Field B. But Adobe Reader 8/9 will print fine. It also works fine if user click 'Print Preview' as normal and then click 'Print'
Does anyone knows whether this inconsistencies is caused by
- printer drivers; or
- Adobe; or
- SAP Business One.

Dear Manmath Das,
It is too difficult to handle the print on pre printed continuous stationery by PLD. PLD is a very basic tool. You may only get it work by endless try and error to see.
Thanks,
Gordon
