Hi Everyone, I'm getting object reference error while clicking on the "Select" button after creating a copy of the Original. It seems it's not getting my report query.

"Original" is working fine and I'm getting the correct output of the report, this error is coming when I'm clicking on "Select" button. This is a custom report, standard reports are working fine.

Does anyone know how to resolve it?

Can you try redeploying the report. As this is a custom report, check if the report parameters are defined as you would have duplicated the design.

Already did, but I'm getting the same error for all the custom reports while clicking on "Select". It is a new report not duplicated.

Have you tried building custom models with reference to Application packages option?

Try to debug the code. Add the debugger in the clicked method select button. Also add the debugger point on PrintMgmtSetupUISettingsConditionalCtl(Class name) >> editCondition(Method). Maybe you can get some more clarification with debugging.

Thanks,

In editCondition(), I'm not getting doc and maintableId, this error is coming at "if(queryRun.prompt())" line.

On your custom report >> Check whether you have set the "Dynamic filters" property to True on the dataset level. If not set that to true - Deployed the report and check.

Hi Krishna,

It seems that you might have extended / added a code in the standard handler class of PrintMgmtDocType some similar class is there with this name. There you might have added using the case statement your custom report.

If this is right, then that is not the way how you will add the custom report in Print Management to get your report come in the Print Management format table.

Please confirm if this is your customisation for this report.

Thanks

Hi Bharani,

Yes, this is the case, I have also added another report with a case statement and it is working fine. Although every standard and some custom reports are working fine when I'm clicking on the "Select" button, but I'm getting this warning for some custom reports when I'm clicking on the "Select" button to open the query form.

Thanks

Hi Krishna,

Actually what happened is for other reports you might have given a condition and added your case statement in that condition. So only with that condition your custom one will work.

But here what might have done is you are implicitly overriding the standard function by adding a case statement through code without giving any condition. So what happens is system cannot accept that as the system code is being overriding unknowingly.

So to add your custom report in the Print Management you need to extend one class called PrintMgmtFormatTable or something similar. All the custom reports in print management will be coming into this table and once you open the Print Mgmt form you will be able to see your custom report. Then you can select your custom report which won't give any error.

I need to check the class name which I have used for my customisation and it is long back development and will let you know once I found that.

Thanks

Bharani
