Hello,

each time we print a crystal reports instant invoice, the name is something like INSTANT_INVOICE_REP2322.0fr2598.0.pdf . could it be possible to customize this name with something like the name of the report called (instant_invoice_V2?rpt) ?

 

Thank you in advance.

Hi @fthary,

This can be done with the use of a Report Rule.

Please, check this Community post: 

Screenshot is from IFS Cloud version, but this can also be done in App10.

Which IFS version are you using?

Hi,

I would like to know how to customize the file name of a report, when I print and download it, so that I don’t have to rename every PDF file by hand. I’m using IFS Cloud.

Currently, when I print a report, I get a file name like “PURCHASE_ORDER_PRINT_REP13467.xxxx.pdf”. How can I change the parameters of the file name? For example: adding the order number to the file name or a string.

Any help is appreciated.

Thank you in advance.

You can use a report rule, please see the example in the screenshot below.  Obviously define the report rule condition that is appropriate for your requirement.

 

Let me know if this can help.

Regards,

Pilar
