I want to generate a pdf of selected records in a list?

[trinadhgottipat]

Hi All,

I want to generate a PDF of selected records in a list, when the user clicks on 'Generate PDF' UI action(List Choice),created by me.

Is there a way I could do this.

Thanks,

the error clearly says GwtPollDialog is not defined so it won't work in UI builder.

So you might have to try something else.

Hi @Ankur Bawiskar ,

I have changed the code and now using below code, It is working as expected and exporting pdf file with selected records as well. But after that it gives below error.  

Code :

try {
    var checked = g_list.getChecked(); // get's the sys_id of the checked records
    var query = "sys_idIN" + checked.toString();
    var table = g_list.tableName;
    //var url = "/"+table+"_list.do?PDF&sysparm_query=" + query + "&sysparm_view=workspace";

    var url = table + "_list.do?PDF&sysparm_query=" + query + "&sysparm_view=workspace";
    //window.open(url);
    top.location.href = url;

} catch (ex) {
    var message = ex.message;
    alert("Errors: " + message);
}

Hello Ankur,

I also have the same requirement but instead of PDF I need to generate the records in excel format for incident list.

Can you please help me with the same.

Thank you in advance.

I think you can achieve this easily by using a list filter and export.

Let's say you want to export only the active incidents assigned to you then

go to Incidents > open

and add a filter assigned to me

then if you go to export PDF then it will give only the filtered records.
