So I guess I'll have to use two different PB forms, as mention in my original post.
Thanks for your time and help.

Ok great this allows me to specify a destination for each copy. But I still struggle with the "confirm destination filename at runtime". How can I set it to true for copy 0 and false for copy 1?

Example:
PDF Tab Destination File Name use {PDFFile} as the variable.
Then Footer Objects:
#[C,3]Assign PDFFile, 'H:\Accounting\{YYYY-MM-DD} {Payee1} #{DocNo}'
#[C,4]Assign PDFFile, 'S:\Accounting\{YYYY-MM-DD} {Payee1} #{DocNo}'

Hi Nancy, thanks for your answer. Adding a copy and using #ProcessPage makes a lot of sens. But still, I don't understand how can I tell printboss to act in different way regarding the "PDF" tab. For what I understand the PDF tab manages pdf settings for the whole form regardless the copy number.


Is there a variable I can use to change the PDF settings?



Thanks!

If you have the Enterprise version of PrintBoss and if you can place a unique data element on the Crystal report that would trigger either an automatic or a manually filed PDF, you could have two PrintBoss copies (not two forms or .rpts) - one that would be for automatic filing of the PDF and another one that you require the manual choice of file location. The unique data would be captured and use in a #ProcessPage command to determine which PB copy to print.

Hi,

I'm trying to automate a pdf printing process, working with Sage 300 and PrintBoss. We do have a rtp "calling" a PrintBoss form. Now the form is configured with the "confirm destination filename at runtime" checked (see attached image). So that way the user can choose where to save the pdf.

In the automation process I need to be able to skip this question (but I still need to keep it for manual operations). Is there a variable or anything I could set in the Crystal RPT to tell PrintBoss to ignore the "confirm destination filename at runtime"?
I know I could copy the PrintBoss form and change the settings manually but that would be two forms to maintain.

Thank you
