I want to print like this as balanced itemwise.
1.before.layout.1 – detail 1
2.before.layout.2 – detail 2
Can anybody help me regaing this issue?

Thanks & Regards,

Not familiar with your session or data. You might need to provide more details so that others can make a suggestion. The best I can recommend is get you data sorted first in the correct order you want. Then just play with the different type layouts and print expressions to turn them on and off as you print.

Use two print commands in your script with a counter. Set the counter to 1 and then send it to the report. Put a condition on Before_Header_1 and Detail_1 if the counter is 1 print. Increment the counter then send the line to the report again. Put a condition on Before_Header_2 and Detail 2 if the counter is 2 print.

As an alternative you could do this is a report script the same way, but when you increment the counter from 1 to 2, you may have to use the print again fuction.

Thank for your reply.i am not aware of that. if it possible that can you send me the sourcecode please.

Hello,

report flow :

before.x.1:
before.x.2:
detail.1:
detail.2
after.x.1:
after.x.2:


Details everytime is executed between the last before.field of input field order.

before field is changed, when the value changes and all details are printed according to their print expressions.
In your case the details are printed as long as the DINO changes.

Sorry for my english !

Regards

Without knowing the data I would handle it with print expressions also - using k.of.data like in the BOM programs.

before.field.1 K.of.data=1
detail.1 k.of.data=1

before.field.2 k.of.data = 2
detail.2 k.of.data = 2

Then in the session script I would send the record with k.of.data equal to 1, then change the k.of.data to 2 and send the record again. Not sure about the defore fields, but I have used detail records only to do something like this.

Thanks For your reply..... Bernd i know the flow of report.
but i m asking that if it is possible to print following format..

before.tdind071.dino.1:
detail.1:

before.tdind071.dino.2
detail.2

Hi mark thanks for your replay
i ll try and get back to you...

Thanks & Regards,

HI Mark i tried it which is not coming properly.

eg:
Sales order item Quantity Central excise
693521 xxx 1 236

Purchase order item Quantity Central excise
23695 Xxx(Same item) 500 118000

I want to print Two statement at one report.
Can you tell me How should I proceed ?

Thanks & Regards,
Murali

In order to do what you want you have to get the data in the order you want to print and then you just have to play with the layouts turning them off and on. Look at print purchase orders and print bom reports to see how they use the layouts. That is the technique you need to use. Map out how you want the records or data to look, then map them to layouts - then turn the layouts on and off with the print expression.

Thanks for your reply i ll try and get back to U..

Hi Kmurali,

According to ur requirement, u try this one too..
Keep the details of layout detail.1 in before.tdind071.dino.2 and keep counter to be incremented inorder to print all lines.
and your format should be lik this.

before.tdind071.dino.1:
before.tdind071.dino.2:

before.tdind071.dino.3:
detail.2

try this..i too have the same requirement and i got it .
All the best.

Regards.

thank you for your replay shanmukhi... can you explain me how to set increment the counter in before.field layout like detail layout(print all kines).

Thanks & Regards,
Murali.
