Batch Versions Processed on the Server

When you submit batch versions to the server, the engine prompts you for a printer name. Valid printer names must have been previously defined by the system administrator. The server automatically creates a PDF file using the settings associated with the selected printer unless event rules override those printer settings. You can affect how the report prints by modifying settings on the Printer Selection form, such as the printer name, page orientation, PDL, and paper type.

When you view the report from the Microsoft Windows client, the system copies the PDF file from the server to the local directory, E812\PrintQueue, of the client install on the workstation.

When you view the report from the web client, the system copies the PDF file from the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne server to a temp directory on the HTML (JAS) server. The temp directory is defined in the jas.ini file. The PDF is then sent from the HTML server to the user's web browser. PDF files are deleted when you sign off of the web client.

In the jas.ini file, modify the JDENET setting, as illustrated in this example:

[JDENET]
tempFileDir=<temp directory location>

If you process batch versions on the server, either from the Microsoft Windows client or the web client, the enterprise server stores the log file in the server PrintQueue directory.
