Is it possible to get a dynamic URL for an advanced PDF? My customer wants to reach a print from a sublist for a particular record and the only way I can figure out how to do this is by using an inline HTML using a dynamic url. Any takes?
Thank you!

10/11/2022, 4:40 PMWhat part of the URL are you wanting to change? I do this all the time via inline HTML and passing values from the record in via the formula, I'll paste an example below

10/11/2022, 4:41 PMThis current example is passing the record ID to saved search results for filtering (because the record currently isn't supported by advanced PDF so i had to sort of do this as a hack)
The ID of the search & the Advanced PDF template are in here

10/11/2022, 4:44 PMI assume your pdf print is based on a saved search? In my example I want to reach the “BoM print” (standard pdf) via an url and I don’t manage to find any part of the url which I can make dynamic like your example above

Vtor
10/11/2022, 4:52 PMthe parameter for advanced pdf template is &printtemplate=XXX

10/11/2022, 4:53 PMwhat sublist exactly are you trying to print

10/11/2022, 4:56 PMWe have a custom record that store work orders in a sublist. In this subsist our customer want a column with a link to print the WO BoM instead of open up a WO and press the print button.

Vtor
10/11/2022, 4:57 PMso is your sublist generated from a search then?

Vtor
10/11/2022, 4:58 PMif you are able to get to the work order ID from that saved search you could probably do a urls omething like: /app/accounting/print/hotprint.nl?regular=T&sethotprinter=T&formnumber=146&trantype=workord&&id=4775442&label=Bill+of+Materials&printtype=bom
