Split Smartform to Show Same Table twice

dukejib5 — Mon, 06 Mar 2023 12:25:13 GMT

There is a requirement to split the smartform main window to show data of Same table, as seen in the picture below. Besides this, if the list grows, the second window/pane/table should move to other page.

Is there a design time option available, or will it be done through code?

Please guide me how to go about do the same.

I don't get the exact question. What you show seems to be "just" the Copies feature. It doesn't seem you need to bother about the pages as the copy would start at a new page. You generate the output with option 1 copy, and you have a Window of type Copies for "Department Copy", and possibly use &SFSY-COPYCOUNT& and &SFSY-COPYCOUNT0&.

It's not a copy, it should be on the same page. copy starts a new page, if i am not wrong.

basically , it is to save the printing page, so if line items are less then 10, both tables should come on 1 page, if more, then on separate pages.

Is there a problem for you to put two tables of the same data into the MAIN window ?

Sorry, I thought you wanted to move to next page always.

So, you want to use the "protection" feature on the block of lines, and everything must be in the Main window.
