Print Layout Designer

[Former Member]

In Print Layout Designer can I set the different page header for each page I mean if I have to print 4 pages, can I set page header for first page to format one, second page to format two …… For example, in first page, put text field “pre sale order” in page header and in second page, I would like to change text field “pre sale order” to text field “sale order”, can I do like these.

In case, if I can not do that in Print Layout Designer tool. Can anyone suggest which the ADD-ON can do that?

Thank you

Pretty sure that the "Print Layout Designer" that came with SAP Business One cannot do that.

My company have a business requirement like this and we end up developing our own document printing program using SAP Business One SDK, .NET and Crystal Report.

Thank for your answer but I have one more question. Have your company ever used Advanced Layout Designer to solve that problem?

Hi Kitsada,

You can use the PLD to do your form.

If you put in the header, the fields of the page one and the fiels of the page to you can use formulas to make that some fields appears in the page one or in two.

The formula is a field that need to have a comparation if the current page is like other field thats is "1". Then you link all the fields that you can see only in page one with the field that contains this formula and its all.

Hope this help,

Hi Alfredo

Thank for your idea and I get it but I don’t know how to use formula like your idea. If don’t mind can you show some example.

Our company has quite a few requirements when it comes to document printing, ALD address a few of these but many more are not possible even with ALD.

Considering that ALD will no longer be available for SAP Business One in version 2006 and beyond, we decided to not use ALD at all.

Did you find a solution to your document requirements?

If not, you should look at the electronic forms solution that is supplied by our company. It is especially good for Business One sites. Very flexible and reliable.

Hi -

to print different Text in the header of different pages, use the following:

CurrentPage() == 1

CurrentPage() == 2

CurrentPage() == 3

CurrentPage() == 4

Create different formula fields as above and link the text you want to print with them as required
