Display line comments on Proforma Invoice

Posted on by 95

Hi community.

On the Out of the Box Proforma Invoice report (1302), the line does not display the line comments.  For example, on a Sales Order Confirmation, the report will display the Sales line, along with any other comment line on the order.  When printing the Proforma Invoice (which is derived from the Sales Order tables) the report only displays the Item lines, it does not display the comments.  Is there a specific flag or method required to include comment lines on the report?  

I've noted in the Proforma Invoice the line description field is titled LineDescription, but in the Sales Order Confirmation it's titled "DescriptionLine".  

Note - I needed the Item Number and Unit of Measure fields in the Proforma Invoice report (not entirely sure how Microsoft thought the Proforma Invoice report could be useful without these fields...) so have added these to the report template.  Not sure if this would cause an issue.

Cheers
Chris.

    Ok does work with also

    //Item.Get("No.");

    trigger OnPreDataItem()
                    begin
                        TotalWeight := 0;
                        TotalAmount := 0;
                        TotalVATAmount := 0;
                        TotalAmountInclVAT := 0;
                        //SetRange(Type, Type::Item);
                       


                        OnAfterLineOnPreDataItem(Header, Line);
                    end;

    Hi Nitin.

    I wasn't working in AL, I had been editing the word template (I'm using a custom word template).  Let me go and do some homework on how to open up the report through Visual Studio and I'll take a look.  I'll come back to you as if this is the answer I'll be sure to verify it and confirm.  

    Thanks.

    Hi,

    This Type = Item condition already there in the Report design, please open your report 1302 through Visual studio AL and check the below code is already written in the Dataitem (Sales Line). since you can remove or edit anything in the standard report, in that case I would suggest please whole code of this report and paste into New report file and change the report id with your custom report id starting from 50000..99999 and then remove that below condition. then your will be able to see your each sales lines into the report, including comments.

    Hi Nitin.

    Where do I check this RowVisibility property?  Is this within the word template for the Proforma Invoice report?  If so I need you to give me directions on where to find the property because I haven't seen where I can edit this value.

    Hi chris_7777au ,

    Can you please check if there is a RowVisibility property is set only to show Type = Item lines? or any Sales Line group with this field?

    Thanks.
