Is there any way to combine General Electronic Reporting attachments/templates for, say, Excel generated files, with Print Management and Document Routing Agent to have GER output files sent direct to a printer rather than downloaded on the client machine? The GER destinations content gave me some hope, but that feels more like email's the only option.
If combining these features isn't directly supported, I wonder whether Flow might be able to print any files saved to a given SharePoint folder...
Lewis,
May I please ask which form you're starting from to access the File menu with the Export Printer Code Template option? I see no such menu on any of the GER workspace, the Format designer form nor the Attachments form. I can see the File attachment type on the Attachments form, but follwoing that link doesn't give me any options for Export Printer Code Template.
Without being able to follow your directions, I haven't yet understood how this would help direct the GER output to a printer, but if I can get to the point where I can follow these steps, I may be able to ask more pertient questions.
Thanks
You can also manually specify a custom name for a template field. To do this, follow these steps:
1. On the File menu, click Export Printer Code Template. The Export Printer Code Template dialog opens.
2. Click More Options. The Printer Code Template Options dialog opens to the Template Fields tab.
3. In the left navigation pane, select the data source that you want.
4. In the Template Field area, select a source for the new data field in the Source list.
5. In the Name field, enter a name for the new data field.
6. Optionally, click to select the Add Field Delimiters checkbox.
7. Click OK to close the Printer Code Template Options dialog.
8. Click Close to close the Export Printer Code Template dialog.
Hope this helps!

André,
A client has pre-printed stationery for bank cheques, which is only loaded in one printer. The GER template for the cheques is an Excel attachment that the users effectively download from D365 when using the Generate payments function from an accounts payable journal. They then print this Excel spreadsheet to the specified printer. It would be preferable if we could somehow configure this specific GER configuration to always print directly to a given printer, but (perhaps understandably given that GER is meant to be Electronic reporting) none of the reading I've done so far points to any GER/printer association/option. If there's something I've missed, I'd be keen to learn.
Thanks
Hi RichHims,
Can you tell functionally what exactly you want to achieve?
