I Just Want To allow The users To See The Preview Of The Report And Not To Print The report

Hi,

look at the Sales Invoices report. There is a solution for that in NAV standard: If you open it by preview, you cannot print it until you print it directly without the preview.

But I think it is not possible to disable printing at all.

Which report you are talking?

If it a sales/Purchase document, whenever you print it will update “No. Printed” filed from Codeunits(313-320).

You can create a filed in usersetup to allow the user to print ot not and can check it in these codeunits.

It will stop printing from both Print and Preview-Print

I tried it to print to XPS and worked.

Hi,

have you tried something like this?

IF NOT CurrReport.PREVIEW THEN
ERROR(‘Only preview allowed’);

CurrReport.PREVIEW is normally used to supress the preview like in report 1401. But I think it will work the other way around, too.

What have you already tried from the responses? Thomas has a good suggestion. Which triggers did you try to put that code in?
