Print Invoices (Batch)

Print a batch of invoices to a server printer in one run. You choose the printer and set the selection criteria that pick which documents to include, then run the task. The screen reports the outcome for every document in a results grid.

Note: This task prints to a printer attached to the Accredo server, not to a printer on your own computer. The printer list comes from the server.

Running the Task

The task is reached from Sales → Print → Print Invoices in the navigator. The screen presents, from top to bottom:

A Printer picker (the server printers available to print to).
A Selections panel for the criteria that choose which invoices to print.
A Run button.

Set the printer, adjust the selections, then choose Run. The task processes the matching documents asynchronously and shows progress while it runs. The Run button becomes a Cancel button during the run, which stops processing.

Printer

Select the server printer to send the invoices to. The list is loaded from the server. PDF / "print to file" printers are excluded; this task prints to physical server printers only.

The printer you choose is remembered for the rest of your browser session and is preselected the next time you open this or any other batch print screen.

Warning: If no printers are available on the server, a message is shown and the Run button stays disabled. Printing cannot run until a printer is configured on the server.

Selection Criteria

The Selections panel chooses which invoices are printed. The available criteria are supplied by the server for this task, so they match the desktop Print Invoices selections (for example ranges and dates that narrow the set of documents). Use the panel to set, change, or clear each criterion before running.

For how the Selections panel works in general — entering ranges, dates, periods, and multi-select values — see Selection Criteria.

Note: A "Show Results list" option exists in the underlying task, but the web app always returns the results grid (this screen is built around it), so the option is set on automatically and is not shown.

Results

When the run finishes, the selection form is replaced by a results view. It shows the criteria that were used, a result grid, and a totals footer.

Selections summary	A read-only summary of the selection criteria that produced this run, shown as chips above the grid.
Display filter	Toggle the grid between All, Errors, and Success. Each toggle shows its row count.
Results grid	One row per document the task attempted. A Status indicator (green tick for success, red icon for failure) is shown first and cannot be hidden; rows that failed are also tinted. The grid's "…" menu prints a report-style copy of the rows currently shown.
Totals footer	Shows the Records count (total documents processed) and the Errors count. The Errors figure is highlighted when it is greater than zero.

If no documents matched, the grid is replaced with the message "No documents were processed."

Choose Back to Selections to return to the form and run the task again.

Result Columns

The columns shown by default are:

Status	Success or error indicator for the document (derived; always shown first).
Account	The account code on the document.
Document No	The document number.
Doc Date	The document date.
Print Status	The print status of the document.
Gross	The gross amount of the document.
Sales Person	The sales person code on the document.
Branch	The branch code on the document.
Department	The department code on the document.

Further columns are available through the grid's column chooser, including Document ID, Message, Gross Bs, Currency, Quotation Reference, Category 1, and Category 2.

Permission

To open and run this task you need the Invoicing Tasks – Printing permission at the Control level. Without it, the task does not appear in the navigator.
