Extender fields in Report Writer

Posted on by 5

I have created an Extender window in GP that is designed to be an Additional window in the Print Receivables Statements window.  This additional window is designed to enter alpha/numeric data into 1 user-defined field.  The key field in my Extender window is STATEMENT ID using the Print Receivalbes Statements form/window.  My goal is to print the user-defined field onto the RM Statement on Blank Paper modified report.

In Report Writer, I have created a calculated field on the modified RM Statement on Blank Paper report.  I've placed my calculated field onto my report and have entered data into my Additional window (Extender) in the report options window but I cannot see my field that I created.  I have also verified that I have access to the modified report.  I referenced Microsoft KB article 935385 and believe 4 out of the 5 parameters in my calculated expression are correct.  I have verified that parameters 1, 2, 4, and 5 are correct.  It seems that parameter 3 is the one that is the issue.  Apparently, it needs to use the key used in the Extender window (STATEMENT ID).  Here's what my Report Writer calculated expression looks like:

FUNCTION_SCRIPT( rw_TableHeaderString 3107 "ABC_STMT_01" RM_Statements_HDR_TEMP.Statement ID 0 1 )

Parameter 1 = 3107 for Extender product

Parameter 2 = ABC_STMT_01

Parameter 3 = RM_Statements_HDR_TEMP.Statement ID (based on Key Field in Extender Window = "Statement ID". 

AM I NOT USING THE CORRECT RESOURCE (RM_Statements_HDR_TEMP) IN MY EXPRESSION???

Parameter 4 = 0 for Extender product

Parameter 5 = 1 (for the 1st Extender field to print)

Can anyone help me on how to fix Parameter 3?

Thanks.
