I have created a complete custom report (.Report, .RDF, .RDL, .XML) through IFS Studio Report Designer to replace the IFS PO Report.  There were just to many things we wanted to change to make it economical to change the inherent IFS Report.  Is there a way to change to the custom report so that the inherent IFS calls (like the RMB on the purchase order to print the work copy) calls the custom created report rather than the IFS Canned Report?  We are using IFS10.

I am not talking about going to the report definition and just swapping in a new layout, that question has already been answered.

We have not figured out how to do what we wanted, but we did have a method to sort of get to where we wanted. 

How we did it was by creating a custom menu event to call the report we wanted and taking away permissions away for the IFS Operational Report.  So now the users only have our custom report as the option for printing the PO Report.
