Using the mxe.report.birt.PrintSeparateRecord system property with scheduled reports.

Question & Answer


Question

Can the mxe.report.birt.PrintSeparateRecord system property be used with Scheduled reports ?

Cause

We have a system property called mxe.report.birt.PrintSeparateRecord.

If this system property is set to 1, then when you print a report, then each individual record such as a workorder, will be printed on a separate page.

This applies if you print on one side of the page or both sides (ie. duplex printing).


Answer

This feature only works for direct printing. It does not work for scheduled reports.

This is because with scheduled reports, Maximo sends an attachment to the user. From
this point on Maximo no longer has control over printing.
