Two connections - On Demand

bobbydave — Thu, 29 Oct 2015 15:36:52 GMT

So I have an app which I am using in NPrinting and using the On-Demand functionality to allow for users to be able to print themselves from their local machines using Access Point.

This one particular application I have, uses two connections and I don't know how to allow for both connections or is there a symbol to accommodate both applications.

If you look at connection ID below, you'll see my issue

You only need to use the first connection in the linked field to set up your On Demand object.

For example:

If you create two NPrinting source connections:

SalesDemo

SalesCompass

Then create a single linked field based on these connections ie: Country

Simply use SalesDemo as your connection within your On Demand Object. The linked fields draws the data from the second source connection.

The key is to ensure that you setup your linked field correctly as per the following tutorial:

Thank you. Didn't know that that was what the Linked Fields was used for.

Thank you.

You're welcome, David!

The functionality of linked fields was created to support NPrinting Multi-doc reporting in general.
