Configuring Printing Fields

Configuration of Printing Fields is required for Transaction Forms only that use basic printing.

On the Printing Fields subtab, you can customize the way your form appears when printed. The Printing Fields subtabs represent the various areas of a printed form.

To configure how each section of your printed form displays:

Note:

Any configurations made on the Printing Fields subtab are visible only on the printed form.

  1. For all subtabs on the Printing Fields subtab:

    • In the Print/Email column, check the boxes next to fields you want to appear on printed and emailed forms.

      This column also controls the visibility of a field in the Customer Center. Check the boxes next to fields you want to appear in the Customer Center.

    • In the Label column, edit the labels of the fields as needed.

    Note:

    If you change the label for a field on the Printing Fields subtab, the label is also automatically applied to the field on the Sublist Fields subtab.

  2. For the Body and Columns subtabs:

    • In the Width column, enter the width for transaction column fields appearing on your printed and emailed forms.

      Note:

      To change the width of custom body fields, you must make the change on the Custom Form page. The width you set on the custom field does not affect printed transaction body fields.

    • Rearrange the fields as needed. Select and drag each line item to the preferred position.

  3. Click Save.

Important:

If the Advanced Taxes feature is enabled in your account, or if you are using NetSuite OneWorld, which requires Advanced Taxes, you cannot directly rename tax fields on a custom transaction form. To change names of tax fields that appear on the custom form, you must rename them in the appropriate languages on the Field Naming subtab of the Set Up Taxes page, at Setup > Accounting > Taxes > Set Up Taxes (Administrator). For more information, see Customizing Tax Fields on Transaction Forms.

For fields on the Header subtab, some fields represent values that are inserted and some represent labels of field data that is inserted. For the value fields that are values, the defaults from the company setup page are used unless overridden on the printing fields subtab.

Following are the available fields listed by type:

Values

  • Company Name

  • Company Phone

  • Company URL

  • Form Title

  • Page Number

Labels

  • Business Number

  • Acct. No.

  • Date

  • Doc. No.

  • Bill To

  • Ship To

After you have configured the printing fields, you should configure sublists. For more information, see Configuring Sublists.
