Printing data selection in report header

We want to be able to print the data selection on page header section of the report. For example if the user runs the report and chooses 4 companies in the data selection, those four companies should be printed out in the page header in the report. How can I do this?
 
Chiefcook,

Check-out the version.
you can change this in the Row-Exit Version Detail in BV.
just use the checkbox to enable the print of (all options)the Cover Page.
Check-in the version.
or
Use RDA to change the Cover Page Options (Report Properties).
here you can select the option(s) you desire !

Good luck
 
Thank you MarcelEndema,

This prints all the data selection items and looks clumsy. But we want to show a specific data selection alone. There should be an option to get the value inside the Header section so we can assign to different variables. Any clues.....We have opened a call with JDE too...Please help.
 
The typical recommendation on this is to use processing options *instead* of data selection for any fields you want to display and assign to variables. You can then work with them / display them at any stage of reporting. You can add code to the initialize section event rules of your main section to append the processing option values to data selection. This means that you need to train your user to update values in processing options instead of in data selection.
 
1. Create conditional section
2. Use function system to use the same Data Selection that your driver section.
3. Init section clear sz_CompanyArray (New VA of 80 characters)
4. Create a level break header by company. In his Do Section concat the BC Company to VA sz_CompanyArray
5. Sort your driver section by company
6. in a level break header by company or in a report header call the conditional section (just one time call)
7. In page header use VA sz_CompanyArray to print Companys

With this you will print all company that match data selection with your file.

Hope this help, if you had any doubts mail me.

Luis Felipe
