How to set DataItem (Report) that the report choose the current Record?

Posted on by T_Mauser 397 User Group Leader

Hello, I need support to generate a report with the selected record - with the debugger the Rec (SalesHeader) has the right values, but when it creates the report it chooses the first record from the list - so I think the problem is in the report "DataitemTableView" - how is it possible to set a Filter with "No." - maybe to get the result I want?

    Hi,

    Best way is to use a report run function with your current rec as a variable.

    Check out this:

    Hi,

    You can pass the record to the report. You can call the report by id or instance.

       var

           SalesHeader: Record "Sales Header";

           SalesOrder: Report "Sales Order";

       begin

           SalesHeader.SetRecFilter();

           // Run report by ID -

           Report.Run(Report::"Sales Order", true, false, SalesHeader);

           // Run the report with the report variable

           SalesOrder.SetTableView(SalesHeader);

           SalesOrder.RunModal();

       end;

    Hello!

    Maybe I forgot to mention that I'm using the report through sending an Email - so I don't want to show any Requestpage.

    so I called through the OnAction-Trigger following code:

                        RecRef.Open(Database::"Sales Header");
                    Fref := RecRef.Field(3);
                    Fref.SetFilter(Rec."No.");

    and passed it to 

    Report.SaveAs(AttReportUsage, XMLParameters, ReportFormat::Pdf, AttOutStream, RecRef);
    Now everything works as I want ;)
    Thank you for help!
    Tom
