Launch NPrint from Qlik Sense

Can this be done?

I would like to have a hyperlink in my Qlik Sense table.  When the user clicks on the hyperlink it will kick off an NPrinting report with a specified parameter.

Header 1Header 2Header 3Header 4
Company ABCWidget A$500Launch Report
Company ABAWidget B$750Launch Report
Company ABAWidget A$1000Launch Report

Clicking on the 1st Launch Report link would kick off the Nprinting report for Company ABC and Widget A, the 2nd would kick off the  Nprinting report for Company ABA and Widget B and so on..

Thanks

Frank

We are currently not using ondemand.  However if that will be able to fulfill this requirement, then we will implement it.

Hi Chanty - are you quesing your answers or maybe shooting in the dark? I find your above comments very misleading, don't you think? Please provide the instructions how you can achieve on demand functionality by using a hyperlink in a table. I will be more than happy to see it working.

Frank - down to your question:

  1. ondemand fucntionality first and foremost does not exist in Qlik Sense as out of the box component!!!
  2. you can mimic on demand functionality by using extensions (for example this Qlik Sense On-Demand report using Qlik NPrinting - YouTube ,please also read a comments and limitations of this functionality)
  3. you also can levarage NPrinitng APIs to build on demand fucntionality in Qlik Sense, but it will require coding knowledge. On top of that to make it available as a hyperlink component in a table it would be even more difficult.

See the link to NPrinitng API reference document below:
