First Attempt Setting Up Advanced Print Routing for SO Acknowledgement Email

Epicor ERP 10

Hello Everyone. I trust you all had a nice Thanksgiving holiday. If not, head over to my place – we have plenty of turkey leftover!

Over the last several weeks, we have been working on setting up APR (Advanced Print Routing) so our SO Acknowledgement PDFs are emailed out. We think everything is setup properly, but we’re now getting an error message in the System Monitor indicating that the app pool is not setup for single sign-on. This is in fact true since the user “print” is not in our Active Directory. So I guess we need to know where to specify the login & password for the print engine to use.

I have tons of documentation detailing the project, but didn’t want to overwhelm you with unnecessary details. For now, I can tell you that we use a UD field to signal that the SO Acknowledgement should be sent out. There is an In-Process and a Standard Data Directive from OrderHed that checks the UD field (and other things), and enables the Std. DD which kicks off the Auto-Print. I’ve combed through the various settings and options within Report Style Maintenance and can’t find anything that would allow me to specify the login and password for user “print”.

Any thoughts and insights on this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Hmm, I can’t think of a setup “error” that would only present problems when trying to email via APR… Do you get the error when using the email routing manually, or only when it triggers from your BPMs?

Anyways, here are the relevant setup screens that could provide some clues into what’s gone wrong in your system:

Thanks so much for the comprehensive response, Tom. I went through all the screenshots, and didn’t see anything that was seriously wrong. I will say that the error only shows up in the System Monitor when the email is being triggered from my BPM, so it has to be something I overlooked there.

Have you checked your SSRS/Crystal Report setup?
Could be that…
Just out of curiosity and to confirm, do you have other automated reports?

Thanks for jumping in, Shizar. The SSRS Report Setup parameters appear to be correct (using Tom’s previous post as a reference). This is our very first report that will be processed via APR.

Can you paste the error code here?

Just to clarify, my screenshots are not the one and only “correct” way to set things up… I was just pointing out where various settings live.

It seems it’s the Auto-print widget/function that’s failing for some reason, not necessarily APR.

The mail transfer agent is expecting a token and not username/password most likely. If it’s O365, that’s the future.

Thanks everyone for all your help. We were missing the erpdevapppool user (which is in the Active Directory), and needed to populate that into User Account Maintenance. Once that was done, I was able to see the null reference error which I saw two weeks ago, and to fix that, we needed to set the Auto-Print Report Parameter OrderNum to ttOrderHed.OrderNum.
