Hi to all.
We are implementing formscape v3 over Oneworld XE.
We want to know what is the best approach to implement the reporting scheme:
A. Are you using the JDE standard reports and reworking them with Formscape
B. Are you making new custom reports to prepare the data and then rework the aspect with Formscape
We are asking this, because we are now ending the formscape trainig, and we have doubts of the best method to use. We are setting up the following setup:
1. We have created a Fromscape project called Formscape_JDEdwards as a virtual printer
1.1. This project takes the input (the pdf report) and copy it to a folder called after the Report name (R42565) form example (it mantains the original file name of the job like is stored in the Printqueue folder of the server)
1.2. and also write a small .txt file with the email address of the user sending the job
2. We have a Formscape project for each Report checking the folder (of this same name) for new documents
2.1 this project reworks the document and send it as an email to the user that sent the job (we are evaluating the sending of the document or to store the final document in a folder and sent a link to this document)
we have tested with a custom jde report and works fine, but we have tried to make the work orders by procesing the R31415, but is very laborious to prepare and aisle the data to make the mapping.
We are now triying to imagine how we should do with the invoice (R42565)!!!
The initial idea of using formscape was to enhance the look of the reports and to make transparent the jde upgrades (ESU) of the standard reports.
its possible to modify the standard report only to visual allign the data (to make easier the mapping), will this kind of changes conflict with ESU upgrades or will the merge affect the layout?
the last question, how the OSA works (in the JDE side)?
Many Thanks and Greetings.
Many Thanks and greetings.
