IF (TaxFilter NOT True) or (TaxFilter NOT False) then begin
SalesInvoiceHeader.SETCURRENTLEY(SalesInvoiceHeader."No.");
IF SalesInvoiceHeader.GET("Job WIP G/L Entry"."Document No.") THEN;
IF TaxFilter <> SalesInvoiceHeader."Tax Liable" THEN
CurrReport.SKIP;
END;
WHAT IS WRONG WITH THIS?

Your logic works but as Jose mentioned instead of retrieving it apply the filter in the OnPreDataItem trigger of Sales Invoice Header dataitem
SETRANGE("Tax Liable",TaxFilter);
In case that the Tax Liable field of the SalesInvoiceHeader is a boolean, you could do as follows in the onpredataitem of the report.
Tax Liable is boolean
SalesInvoiceHeader.SETRANGE("Tax Liable",TaxFilter);
In case that Tax Liable is option
IF TaxFilter THEN
"SalesInvoiceHeader".SETRANGE("Tax Liable",SalesInvoiceHeader."Tax Liable"::Yes)
ELSE
"SalesInvoiceHeader".SETRANGE("Tax Liable",SalesInvoiceHeader."Tax Liable"::No);
You should consider filtering out the records that you do not want to work with (the ones you wanna skip) instead of skipping them. Not retrieving them is always more efficient than reading them and doing nothing with them after :-)
Ok I got that part; so I will have a request form variable i.e., taxfilter and if taxfilter is true then I only want to get job records where the sales invoice tax liable field is true. The same goes for false. I would put in the Sales Invoice Header after record; if tax liable<> sales invoice header, currReport.skip Make sense?
Since Tax filter is a boolean, it could be either true or false so you don't need to check if it is true or false, as Mohana mentioned the correct way to check that is
IF (TaxFilter) or (NOT TaxFilter) -- But you need to check this.
If both fields have the same datatype you should be able to compare them against each other without an issue. If the "Tax Liable" field is an "Option" field, you will have to create something like this:
boolTaxLiable (boolean variable)
boolTaxLiable := SalesInvoiceHeader."Tax Liable"::"Yes";
//IF TaxFilter <> SalesInvoiceHeader."Tax Liable" THEN - COMMENTED
IF TaxFilter <> boolTaaxLiable THEN
[...]
If this does not work could you ellaborate a bit further?
I am trying to put filter on the job cost by department report. TaxFilter is a request form field (Boolean) and it is compared to the Sales Invoice Header. Tax Liable field (Boolean). I was not sure if a Boolean field can be blank (not selected)? So I was checking for that occurrence, however in the code and stepping through the debugger, the TaxFilter field is either true or false, and the sales invoice header tax liable field is yes or no.
What are you expecting from this line of code? can you please explain?
IF (TaxFilter NOT True) or (TaxFilter NOT False) then begin
Generally IF TaxFilter THEN itself means Taxfilter = TRUE
IF not TAXFilter THEN means TaxFilter = FALSE
