Hello,
We are running AX 2012 R2.
During our invoice process, invoices are sent out to most customers via email (the destination for the Original copy of the invoice), and we print a copy for ourselves. These settings are set up on each customer individually, rather than by using the Print Management settings for the AR module itself.
I've recently installed a new print server in our environment. I'd like to transition the AR rep's printers to the new print server, but if I do that, she will have to touch hundreds (perhaps over a thousand) of customer records to update the Destination setting for their invoices to reflect the new printer object.
Is there a way to do this en masse, perhaps via SQL? I tried looking at the Print management setup form for a customer to see if I could determine the table/cell that is being used to record the printer setup for each customer, but I'm not seeing what I need.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Scott

Hi Scott,
I haven't looked into the technical details, so can not give you an estimate. I'm only a bit aware how the print settings are stored.
Thanks Andre.
Does this sound like a very intensive project to you? We don't have a developer on staff, so I'll have to outsource it. I'm hoping to have an idea of the cost before presenting options to my boss.
I appreciate your help!
Scott
Hi Scott,
The print settings are stored in a container field. This is not readable data but should be unpacked by using xpp logic. So, a developer would be able to write a scripts for this to automate the required changes.
