> Datastream 7i Bonus Functions

Menu

Function

File | Print screen

Prints current screen to default printer

File | Print report

Prints report related to the current task (when configured)

Note:  Datastream 7i report functions include Options that enable you to specify criteria regarding the report output, e.g., include custom fields, print attachments, etc. However, when you generate a report using the Print report bonus function, Datastream 7i automatically generates the report without invoking the actual report function to enable you to specify any output Options for the report. Therefore, Datastream 7i generates bonus function reports based on the default settings of the output Options for the corresponding report function set on the Functions form (BMFUNC).

 You can modify output Option parameters for reports as necessary. Refer to "Modifying Report Parameters" in Chapter 5   Reports Configuration of the System Configuration Guide.

File | Print All Reports

Prints all the records on the current form for which this option is available.
