Hi,

I would like an answer too, to the above link.

I have a purchasing team that need to be able to choose which purchase order they wish to print, depending on what they are ordering.

I have created 2 custom report layouts, but seem to only be able to select 1.

Basically, when the team raise a PO and then go to print it, I want for them to have 2 report layouts to select from. Is this possible?

Thanks in advance.

Vicki

Hi,

This is possible, if those 2 layouts are 2 separate reports.
Then in "Report Selection - Purchases" for Order You can define both report IDs with the Sequence Nr. 1.
When Users will press Print - there will be a pop-up window with both options - they have to select one and press ok, to get the printout.

For one report ID You can have several custom layouts created, but in this case You can assign different layouts for Vendors - in Vendor card find the Document Layouts option, and create a line for Order and report ID and the Custom Layout.
In this case when users press Print on Purchase Order, system will automatically take the assigned layout to this Vendor and print it.
