Description
Use the revPrintReport command to print a report that you have set up in the Report Builder.
Note: The Report Builder stack is no-longer supported but can still be used by manually launching the tool.
When you use the Report Builder to create a set of report settings, the settings are stored with the card. The revPrintReport command uses the settings specified in the Report Builder for the current card to print the report. If you have never used the Report Builder with the current card (and therefore there are no report settings to use), the revPrintReport command causes a script error.
The revPrintReport command is equivalent to clicking "Print Report" in the Report Builder.
Important: The revPrintReport command is part of the Printing library. To ensure that the command works in a standalone application, you must include this custom library when you create your standalone. In the Inclusions pane of the Standalone Application Settings window, make sure the "Printing" library checkbox is checked.
