Sequence numbers in names of new report layouts
The name of a new report layout contains these two sequence numbers:
- The first number is the sequence number of the selected layout, or 0 if a category was selected.
- The second number is a sub-sequence number.
This does not mean that these layouts have a relation. They are completely independent and can also be printed independently. The sequence numbers ensure the layouts are printed in the correct order, and new layouts can be inserted even if there is no gap in the standard sequence numbers.
For example: The standard report has layout “Detail 1” and “Detail 2”. If you select the first detail layout and then add a new layout, “Detail 1 1” is created. You can print this layout if “Detail 1” is not printed, and vice-versa. The layouts are always processed in that order. If the “Detail 1” layout is removed, “Detail 1 1” is still processed before “Detail 2”.
If a Before Field or After Field layout is added, you must link these layouts to a sorted report input field. If a new layout is inserted after an existing layout, the new layout is linked to the same field. When adding a layout for a different field, you can select that field on the menu that is displayed when you click the
icon.
