Print a Batch of Forms from a Displayed Navigation Center

There are two methods to printing forms. You can print an individual form from various task windows. You can also print a batch of forms from either the Select a Report or Form window or any of the Navigation Centers available from the Navigation Bar (such as Customers & Sales or Vendors & Purchases) that permit form printing.

  1. From the desired Navigation Center, select the form you want to print. For example, from the Customers & Sales Navigation Center, you might go to the Customers & Sales Tasks section, select Sales Invoices, and then Print Invoices.
  2. Sage 50 displays the Select a Report or Form window with the related form type selected and the appropriate forms shown in the Forms list. (For example, in the case of invoices, the Invoices and Packing Slips form type would be selected and the available invoice and packing slip forms would be shown in the Forms list.)

  3. From the Forms list, select the desired form—for example, Invoice w/Freight; then select the Preview and Print button located below the sample image on the Select a Report or Form window.
  4. The form Preview and Print options window appears. Enter any necessary information, then select Print/Email.

    Note: In the Preview and Print options window, you also have the opportunity to aligning the form. Select the Align button on the Page Setup tab; the Align Form with Printer window appears. Here, you can tell Sage 50 how to move objects on the form so they'll align with the printer.

  5. Sage 50 displays the Print dialog indicating the current default printer setting. To change the printer selection, use the drop-down list in the Name field. Otherwise, click OK to begin printing the forms based on your filter selection.

    If the transaction does not have a reference number assigned (for example, an invoice number or check number), then the transaction will be assigned the next available reference number before printing. If the transaction already has a reference number assigned, the form will print with the word "Duplicate" included. In the case of duplicate checks, "Void" will print in the signature area.

  6. After the forms finish printing, Sage 50 prompts a print confirmation message. If the forms printed properly, select Yes to save the transactions.
