Printing PO's and Invoices

Jim,
Thank you for the reply. I don't know how to do a trace to see how the report is being called but I did try to modify the Report Definition to somehow get a range of invoices or all invoices with a certain GroupID and I don't see how that might be done. The Invoice Entry screen does somehow allow a group to be chosen but I cannot see how to pick from existing GroupIDs. One of our reasons to print a group of invoices is related to how our credit card process works. It automatically creates an invoice but it's not printed at the time so we end up with a number of invoices for the same GroupID for the day (e.g. CC021301) but would need to be printed individually in Invoice Tracker in order to send them to our APM system. It seems as though this functionality would be useful to many.

Perhaps someone else has another suggestion other than manually recreating the report in Crystal Reports outside of Epicor's procedures - would be a real "reinventing the wheel" process.

Thank you again,
Kevin

Hello,
After the last year and a half, is there any way yet to reprint invoices in an Invoice Group or range of invoice numbers? We have APM but the print to the APM Printer failed last night (message said "system error has occurred") with nothing in the APM Documents or Capture folder and unfortunately the invoices were posted so we are left with having to print 156 invoices individually using Invoice Tracker. It's hard to imagine that this is still unresolved and I'm hoping it's finally possible to print a group or range of invoices.

I have (in the past) rebuilt an XML file manually for a smaller Invoice Group before and it was quite time consuming...

Any other ideas... please?

Thank you,
Kevin

Do a trace on a single print and see how the report is being called. It may allow a list of invoices to be passed to it. You could then add a customization to a screen and pass the list of invoices to a call to the report. A BAQ on the invoices will show which Group they belong to.
