Output pdf of only some records

[JeremyT]

I am working on a job that has 4 versions of a newsletter each week. I am able output so that each version gets it own pdf output labeled based on "IssueID" field - Issue 1.pdf, Issue 2.pdf, Issue 3.pdf, Issue SE.pdf.

 

For this merge I only want Issue 1.pdf output. Currently it puts all versions in Issue 1.pdf

 

I've done other merges where the output file is renamed, but this is a little different again.

 

Eventually, I will need to have it output other versions, too i.e. Issue 1 and Issue 2, but not Issue 3 or Issue SE.

 

This is what I have in a OnRecordStart:

 

var DateShort = FormatDate(Field("Date"), "m-dd-yy")

if (FieldChanged("Issueid") && Field("Issueid")=="I-1")

{
   var outputName =  DateShort + " Issue " + Field("Issueid") +" - Merge." + FusionPro.Composition.outputFormatExtension;
   FusionPro.Composition.OpenNewOutputFile(outputName);
   Print("Changing to output file: " + outputName);
}

Thanks,

Jeremy

Just set FusionPro.Composition.composeThisRecord to true in OnRecordStart based on whatever condition you want.
