Posted on by Community Member

When I apply a filter on a report request page  and is it possible to get the same filter while sending the email 

for eg: I have added a custom report action for job ordrer confitmation  on the job card and I have a custom email function  to send the job order confirmation ,  so what i planning is to get the filter that i applied in the report request page to the email sending attachment with the same filtered data . is it posssible !! I Have tried with adding a request page before sending a email and its working but now iam trying to get the filters as same as preview of the report ..is it possible , to add the preview option to the new request page any help will be great, Thanks in advance.

    If I understood correctly then yes, you can store the filters into a text variable using the below line and you can use the text variable in the email or report layout etc.

    AppliedFilter := Recordvariable.GetFilters();

    Hi, just adding to Mohana's reply.

    If some filters on the report request page are variables, maybe you need to manually save it into a Text type field.

    Hope this helps as well.

    Thanks.

    As per above code, if there is nothing generated in the report with Saveas function no code will run, is that your query or something else?

     JobL.Reset();
                    JobL.SetRange("No.", Rec."No.");
                    if JobL.FindFirst() then begin
                        ReportSelections.Reset();
                        ReportSelections.SetRange(Usage, "Report Selection Usage"::JS);
                        if ReportSelections.FindFirst() then begin
                            Customer.Reset();
                            Customer.SetRange("No.", Rec."Bill-to Customer No.");
                            if Customer.FindFirst() then begin

    Hi, yzhums  I was taking reference from your blog

    https://yzhums.com/7200/ . Is it possible to get the same filters applied in the request page in to our new added request page and add the preview option

     XmlParameters := Report.RunRequestPage(50114, PageParameter); by this
