CERTIFICATE_DEFAULT_DEVICE

STRING, comprising a device code

During the generate process when Maintaining Reports for a Report Request, or Creating Report Requests from Job Report Stakeholders in which a report request with a Report Type of Certificate is created for each job stakeholder, then the report request report's Report Template Code, File Syntax Code and Language are inherited from the report template linked from the job stakeholder's Report Template Code.

Further to this, when a report request report is linked to a report template automatically or when it is updated manually, then immediately or upon submit:

  • Where the report template's Device Code is defined, then the report request report's Printer is set to this.
  • Where the report template's Device Code is empty and the setting in this preference contains a device code, then the report request report's Printer is set to this.
  • Where both the report template's Device Code and the setting in this preference is empty or the preference is not found, then the report request report's Printer is left empty.

When a report request report is updated manually and the report template is not changed, then clearing of the report request's Printer leaves it empty upon submit.

Typically the preference is not set at role or user level.
