New PDF button in NAV 2009 R2 build 32843

[Blog bot]

When I was updating my Platform Update list (my previous post), I came across an interesting update which I would like to bring to your attention.. . Very simple, but nice feature - and strange it's added in a build - very silently - very unnoticed...

So, we're talking about build 32843 (KB 2628466), which says:

"A new Create PDF feature is available in Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2009"

When you're dealing with about 300+ KB articles, that all says "overflow this", "insufficient that", "cannot do this", "system does not do that" .. then something like "a new.." really stands out.

So I tested it .. and approved! In the newer builds, we have a new PDF command button in the report request page, like you see here:

). If the Adobe Acrobat is loaded previously, the PDF document can be rendered. Therefore, you can save the document or print the document to a desired printer.

I really do like this feature, because I find it a better "preview" option for documents.

Upgrade, people!
