Alternative to cycle option in NPrinting for report automation

[polisetti]

Hi All,

I'm trying to create multiple PowerPoint reports per product (NPrinting) using two applications i.e two connections. When I use cycle option for these two connections, product selected in one connection and product from another connection. This results in all combinations of products for instance if I have X,Y,Z products from one connection and X,Y,Z from another, the result would be 9 reports like XX, XY, YY, YZ etc. Here in this case is it possible to get only 3 reports for unique products from both the connections?

Hi

It is possible using NPrinintg 16.X and use of linked fields.

It is not possible in NPrinitng 17+ as of now as it does not support linked fields yet. The only workaround is to merge data required in single Qlik app.

Since you have not mentioned which version of NPrinting you are using i can't give you an answer different than above.

Best Regards,

Lech

Hi lech_miszkiewicz,

Thank you for your response. It really helps

On the NPrinting version - I am using April 2018 - 18.9.5 version. Do let me know if only data model merge into a single app is an appropriate solution.

So yeah,

basicly you are not on NPrinitng 16.X - therefore app merge is the only solution.

cheers
