782Bare with me...this will be a bit long...
In SL 6.5 we stopped printing out hard copies of the DD advice slip, essentially, no one ever looked at them, unless they were buying a car or a house or something. We decided we would print them to file and if someone needed a specific one, they would go see the payroll admin, and get a print out.
Jump forward to SL 2011 FP1...
Still not wanting to print hard copies, and what do you know...Quick Send will email them to the employee, but we still want to print them to file. When we upgraded, I used the customized DD advice slip report I had developed for 6.5. It kind of worked, but we had some challenges, it was printing multiple copies of the slips to the file, I tried to fix it, but gave up and created a new custom report from scratch.
PR admin ran payroll, and printed the DD advice slip to file, but panic mode...only 10 out of 32 printed to file. I looked at my report and saw the select formula, and saw it had something to do with the Quick Send, so I commented that bit out and tried again...and it all exploded with Crystal Errors. I put the select formula back the way it was, and it worked again for everyone not getting Quick Send.
So I looked at the roi for the DD advice slips, and saw the tick box on the report tab about not using quick send. I ticked it, ran the reports, and viola...all 32 DD slips.
So, out current work around, tick the box, run the report to file, delete all, untick the box, rename the file, run them again, keep all and then delete the redundant report.
I guess I probably could have made this shorter...does anyone have a way of doing both at the same time? printing to file for all employees and using the quick send functionality for those who requested it?
Thanks in advance,
Chris
