Remarks
By default, Microsoft Dynamics AX prints reports to a screen, printer, file, or email address.
The following API items support a user-defined target:
ReportOutputUserType system enumeration
ViewerClass value for the PrintMedium system enumeration
ClassFactory::createViewer method
When a report is run, the print method creates a reportOutputUser object if the target is PrintMedium::Viewer class. This object will be created by calling the createViewer method and giving reportOutputUserType as one of the arguments. The report will then be printed by calling methods on the object: startReport, startPage, startSection, writeField, and so on.
In general, if the target is, for example, a printer, the reportRun::print method will create a reportOutput object and call its print method to print the report to a printer. If the target is viewerClass, it will instead call the createViewer method to get a ReportOutputUser object. Then it will call methods on the object: startReport, startPage, startSection, startField, outputStringField, and so on.
When the report is run, the Text property of the text controls of the report will be written to the print window.
