Printing packing slips

Yahoo Archive

F.Y.I.

I solved it by using the document send by Mr McWilliams, tnx for
that.........

Parts of the document combined with my input results in the following
guideline for modifying the print submenu.

0. Write down the message when opening the second application (often
used for reporting)

Key: Epicor.Mfg.UIRpt.packingSlipPrint (=key1)
Calling App: Epicor.Mfg.UI.CustShipEntry (=CallingApp)

I will reference to the first as (*key1)
to the second as (*CallingApp)

1. Create a Sub Process entry

---------------------------------------------------

* Log into a standard 8.0 session

* Go to System Management >> Utilities >> Sub Process Maintenance

* Choose File >> New

* Enter a unique Process ID (These all need to start with UD,
i.e. UDpackingslip)

* Enter a Name (i.e. User definced packingslipmenu)

* Parent Process = PROCESS

* Give it a unique sequence number (i.e. 10, 20, 30, etc.)

* Make sure the Enable checkbox is checked

* Program Type = Non Menu Item

* Program = Epicor.Mfg.UIRpt.packingSlipPrint.dll (Browse to
it or type it in) (*key1)

* Customization = name of custom you previously named (should
be in the drop-down list)

* Click Save and exit out of Sub Process Maintenance



2. Create a Process Calling entry

----------------------------------------------------

* Go to System Management >> Utilities >> Process Calling
Maintenance

* Choose File >> New

* Process Called Reference = Epicor.Mfg.UIRpt.packingSlipPrint
(*key1)

* Called From = Epicor.Mfg.UI.CustShipEntry (*CallingApp)

* Menu ID = UDpackingslip (Menu ID create in section #1)

* Save and close Process Calling Maintenance

We converted to version 4.0 this past weekend, and all went well except we
can't print packing slips. When we try to print them we get an error message
that file C4f0x.DLL was not found. Anybody have any ideas? Thanks in advance.

When I want to print packing slips / packinglabels the print menu is
called from within customer shipment.

It is possible to customize the form in which it is possible to select
wether a packing slip or a packing label must be printed.
(it also possible to select scheduling options)
I customized this form.

How can be achieved that the customized version of this (small)
aplication is used i can't find this item in menu maintenance.

The reportform is:
Rpt.PackingSlipPrint.PackingSlipPrintForm

You have to use sub process maint. and process calling maint to do this
There is a document that explains how to do this in MES but it
applies to other areas of vantage. Contact me offline and I will send
it over.
