Page numbers and duplex printing in BIRT

From: Hanna, Christopher A CTR (2013-03-21 12:40)

Maximo 7.5.0.4
WebSphere 7.0.0.27
Oracle 11gR2
BIRT 2.3.2
We are new to customizing BIRT reports and I am posting this for our reports developer so please bare with me if I'm using incorrect terminology. We are trying to customize the work order details report and are running into a couple of issues.
1. When we run the report for multiple work orders, we would like the page numbering to reset at 1. Essentially we need to reset the total page count based on a new row in mainDataSet group.
2. Also when we run the report for multiple work orders, for the reset page numbering, if the last printed page is odd we would like to force a blank page so that it will support duplex printing.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

I am looking for the same page numbering for BIRT when I print multiple work orders.
I am having some trouble converting what we used for Actuate to what needs to be in BIRT.
Has anyone been able to have page numbering for the work order details reports restart at each start of a new Main Data Row?

See page numbering example.
If you are on 7.5.0.4 I'd suggest Birt 3.7.1 as 2.3.2 has a bug where the pagenumber variable is always 1.

If you set this to true the print work orders button will print the reports individually therefore the numbering will be ok

Just a little further info

I’m on 7504 so I’m not sure when this param came in

For this scenario I selected 5 work orders from the list screen in work order tracking and selected the print PO button

It does not work if you run reports , I haven’t tried the check box print reports when changing status


The following parameter needs changing in conjunction with the mxe.report.birt.PrintSeparateRecord param

mxe.directprint.printtime.wait

It needed to be a lot less than the default 600 as it would spit out the 1st w/o then waits this amount of time before printing out the rest


If you set this to true the print work orders button will print the reports individually therefore the numbering will be ok

mxe.report.birt.PrintSeparateRecord

So the page numbering example that was provided was very helpful.
When I view the Work Order Detail Reports in the Report Viewer the page numbering comes out correctly.
When I then go to print the reports, because the reports are so long they are split into multiple pages- the first 4 pages of the report are no longer separate work orders but still say 1 of 1 on each page.
The last 3 pages say page 6 of NaN.
There is obviously something I am missing between the Viewer and PDF, since they do not match.
I could have the users select fit to Page for the PDF, but then all of the fields are too small.

The example I gave only works when you press the reports button on the tool bar this is direct printing and you will not be able to see the reports in the viewer

i.e. on the list tab you select a number of work orders by ticking the box at the beginning of the line and then clicking the direct print report button on the toolbar

it DOES NOT work when you run reports from the select action menu
