Special functions
You can use special functions to add details of who printed the report.
To understand the functions, consider the following example:
Person linked to the account:
• First name - John
• Last name - Williams
• Initial(s) - J.
Logged in user's account:
• User name - JW@Planon
• Description - John Williams
The special functions work as follows:
loggedInPerson()
The loggedInPerson() function returns the value of the name of the linked person as a string. The string is returned in the format -“Firstname”space“Last name”. You can also append parameters related to the person details like First name, Last name or Surname to the function.
The loggedInPerson() works only if there is a person linked to the logged in account, otherwise, it will not return any value.Example | Result |
|---|---|
loggedInPerson() | John Williams |
LoggedInPerson(“LastName“) | Williams |
loggedInUser()
The loggedInUser() function returns the value of the user name and the description field of the account as a string. You can also append parameters related to the user account details or person details like Account name to the function.
