I was looking into the new Report Rules – PDF Insert from Document Management functionality, and I’m having some difficulties getting it to work.

https://docs.ifs.com/techdocs/25r2/050_reporting/000_reporting/251_operational_reporting/011_setup/070_report_rules/?h=report+rule#3_pdf_insert_from_document_management

 

The pre-configuration for IFSWEBREPORT is correct, and the rule itself executes successfully.

 

However, when previewing the resulting PDF, it is not merged with the file I specified.

The business requirement is to merge multiple invoices for the same customer into a single PDF directly in IFS.

I also have a few questions regarding DocumentNo and KeyRef:

  • Are DocumentNo and KeyRef correlated, or are they independent?
  • If I understand correctly, DocumentNo should allow me to filter in Document Management and identify the PDF I want to attach. Is that correct?
  • Can I use a SELECT/query in DocumentNo to retrieve multiple invoices and merge their PDFs?
  • Should KeyRef point to the current printing PDF/report, or should it point to the document that I want to add/attach from Document Management?

Any clarification or example of the expected configuration would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you in advance
