Document Printing

This article describes the functionalities on the Print request page for documents and the Lasernet Print Archive function.

Document Printing

When the Print action is selected on a document in Business Central (for example, Order Confirmation on a Sales Order) defined for Lasernet integration, the Lasernet [document name] request page opens.

The Lasernet Option FastTab includes the field that determines what happens when the OK button is clicked.

The options are:

• Preview – Business Central waits for Lasernet to generate the PDF and shows it on the user screen. This option requires Acrobat Reader or another PDF viewer.

• Save to PDF – Lasernet creates a PDF and returns it to the user's PC, where Business Central opens a Save file window where the user can choose a name and a folder.

• Print – A Print Dialog opens, where a printer can be selected. The printer name is written in the XML file for Lasernet, and it is printed on the physical printer.

• Send E-Mail – Lasernet sends a document as an e-mail using the address specified in the Lasernet E-Mail field on the Customer/Vendor card. This option requires an additional mail server setup in the Lasernet software.

• E-Invoice – Generates a document in another format, such as XML. This option requires additional mapping/setup in Lasernet.

• Fax – Sends a document to the fax indicated in the Lasernet Fax field on the Customer/Vendor card. This option requires additional setup for integration to a fax solution, such as Microsoft Fax.

Note

The fields on the [Document Name] FastTab are used for filtering.
