  • 1.  Perform direct print using Automation script

    Posted 10/18/21 09:44 AM
    Hi All,

    I would like to know whether there is a way to perform direct print on action launch point automation script on Maximo 7.6.1.2? I have button which invokes an automation script and based on some condition a custom report should get printed just the way how work order details report direct print works. 
    I see submitPrint method in ReportDialogBean which probably performs the direct print however I'm unable to invoke it in the automation script.

    Hi,

    i'm do it this way in Python AutomationScript:

    context = UIContext.getCurrentContext();
    wcs = context.getWebClientSession();
    Utility.sendEvent(WebClientEvent("RUNAREPORT", ":RUNAREPORT_" + str(reportNum) + "__QL:-tbb", str(reportNum) + "_QL", wcs));

    You need to know reportNum you want to print.

    Hi Pawel,
    Thank you for your response. I tried however I'm getting an error as Control ':RUNAREPORT_1237__QL:-tbb' could not be found in order to process the 'RUNAREPORT' event. :: 
    Also can you please explain what does the following line do ? ("RUNAREPORT", ":RUNAREPORT_" + str(reportNum) + "__QL:-tbb", str(reportNum) + "_QL", wcs));

    Hi Steve,
    Thank you for your response. I cannot use the steps provided in the link since I have to mention the printer name and this is not possible. I'm typically trying to invoke direct print dialog which comes up for OOB report while performing direct print.

    Hi , 

    I'm doing using this way in python AS


    from java.util import Hashtable
    from psdi.webclient.system.controller import WebClientEvent

    reportInfo=Hashtable()
    reportInfo.put("appname", "PO");
    reportInfo.put("reportname", "poprint.rptdesign")
    reportInfo.put("whereclause", "ponum='" + mbo.getString("ponum") + "'")
    sessioncontext=service.webclientsession().getAdaptorInstance()
    webclientevent=WebClientEvent("RUNREPORTBYNAME", "mainrec", reportInfo, sessioncontext)
    sessioncontext.queueEvent(webclientevent)

    Hi Abdelmonem I'm trying to run your script but I'm having this error "psdi.util.MXApplicationException: BMXAA7837E - Ha ocurrido un error que ha impedido que el script CRONSCRIPT del punto de ejecución null se ejecute.
    ImportError: No module named controller in <script> at line number 2"
    This is the line with the error : from psdi.webclient.system.controller import WebClientEvent

    Any idea on what's going on?

    Thanks for reading and Regards

    Pablo
