    hi Ludwig Reinhard

    I've create 2 ssrs reports one for puch and one for sales to print the voucher from

    LedgerTransVoucher form

    so i create a buttom in in the form with cliced method

    void clicked()

    {

    MenuFunction SSRS_MyReport;

       Args Args;

       str journalid ="";

          Switch (GeneralJournalEntry.JournalCategory)

        {

         case  LedgerTransType::Purch:

         SSRS_MyReport = new MenuFunction(menuItemOutputStr(ForVendByDPPrintGenJoural),MenuItemType::Output);

         break;

         case LedgerTransType::Sales :

         SSRS_MyReport = new MenuFunction(menuItemOutputStr(ForCustByDPPrintGenJoural),MenuItemType::Output);

         break;

         default :

         break;

        }

       Args = new Args();

       journalid = "Dataset1_journalNumbar=" +GeneralJournalEntry.JournalNumber;  

       // Assign parameters to report

       Args.parm(journalid);

       // Run the report

       SSRS_MyReport.run(Args);

         super();

    }

    but the journal number not passed to the report parameter

    is this good idea or there is preferable one and why the journal number not passed to the report parameter

    i have to copy it and pest in the report

    Above code with switch statement look okay to me.

    Please make sure you also cover default case by throwing an error like 'Invalid transaction type'.

    Hi amr,

    Please try to use the enum2Str().

    docs.microsoft.com/.../xpp-conversion-run-time-functions

    Hope this helps.

    Don't use strings - using the enum is not just easier, but also much safer.

    if (generalJournalEntry.JournalCategory == LedgerTransType::Purch)
    {
    	ssrs_MyReport = new MenuFunction(menuItemOutputStr(ForVendByDPPrintGenJoural), MenuItemType::Output);
    }
