When I was updating my Platform Update list (my previous post), I came across an interesting update which I would like to bring to your attention.. . Very simple, but nice feature – and strange it’s added in a build – very silently – very unnoticed…
Since the report that I posted earlier simply sends an PDF copy of the Invoice and Credit Memo to the recipient via SMTP mail you do not have a copy of that E-Mail in your inbox or sent items.
This solution uses PDFCreator to automatically email all invoices and credit memos to customers that have an email address entered.
The new Create PDF functionality is available as an option on the Print button on any report request page that prints through the Role Tailored Client once the associated hotfix (KB 2628466) has been installed.
One of my clients asked for a automated report delivery every morning. Since Job Queue was already running I decided to create a way to have Job Queue print the report to PDF and email it as an attachment.
Can you save RDLC* reports as PDF documents in Dynamics NAV 2009 R2? Of course, you can! You can save RDLC reports as PDF documents in Dynamics NAV 2009 R2 (to be fair, you could do this for years now… starting with Dynamics NAV 2009).
