Execute a command immediately after printing a transaction.
Common commands include:
- run DOS commands
- run Batch Files
- run Applications
Note: Runs only after printing a transaction form (Sales & Purchases).
Command controls:
- /WAIT - Wait for the command to finish before Keystroke continues.
- /MIN - Run the command in a Minimized window.
Note: If both controls are used /WAIT must be first. Command controls must be placed in front of the command.
Both switches are stripped out of the command before it is run. For example, in the Printer Setup Box - Forms Run Command: /WAIT /MIN MyProgram.exe Parameter1 Parameter2 will run MyProgram.exe with Parameter1 and Parameter2 in a Minimized Window when a form is printed and Keystroke will stop and wait for MyProgram.exe to close before continuing.
Command limitations:
- Does not run after printing a Report.
- The maximum length of the Forms Run Command is 80 characters.
