How can I combine multiple reports into 1 PDF?

Posted on by 5

I'm looking for the codeunit that is used to combine multiple reports into 1 pdf. There is a toggle button on the "Select Sending Options(364)" page to allow multiple documents to be combined into one attachment. Can anyone provide details on the codeunit or a code example?

    How can I upvote this? I'm also running into this issue. Two mails for the two reports (Invoice and Payment slip) is not acceptable at all. One mail with two PDFs is bad but at least not as bad as two mails. I don't understand why the report selection works like this? There's one checkbox if it should be used for attached PDFs and one checkbox if it should be used for the mail body. I would expect that only the reports selections that have the checkbox in mail body should trigger a mail. The ones that have a checkbox set only for attachments should attach to the mails generated from the one that are selected for mail body. I should be able to select 10 reports and just one has the checkbox on mail body. This should generate one mail with 9 attachments. Ideally the checkbox "combine all attachments into one" when sending the mail, should then merge all those 9 attachments.
     
    This functionality seems to be broken and I really wonder if anyone in Switzerland is able to use this for their clients.

    The "Combine Email Documents" function does NOT combine several reports from report selection!

    User Story: In Switzerland we typically have two reports in Sales Invoice Report Selection. The first Report is the Invoice (such as Report 1306) and the second one is the payment slip (R 11510).

    What we would like to have when we send the invoice by e-mail is to have ONE email containing two attachments: The Invoice and the payment slip. Or even better: One PDF as combination of Invoice+Payment slip.

    The "Combine Email Documents" doesn't do that.

    What it does is something different:

    Let's assume a customer has three invoices we want to send in ONE email. We would select (mark) the three invoices from the list of posted sales invoices and start the action "send" with the Combine option enabled.

    BC would then start the invoice report once with a filter on "Marked=TRUE" thus starting the report for these 3 invoices in one pdf.
