Strange situation with report: python variables in text between them don't show

[Danijel Kaurin]

Hi Andrew.

I have strange issue with report so I modified customers_report from demo to simulate that. When I have more than one python variables in same row with text written in report template, variable values don't load.

In next row, variables have only && in the between and then load.

Situation 1:

Situation 2:

Reports code:

def on_generate(report):
    cust = report.task.customers.copy()
    cust.set_where(id=1)
    cust.open()

    report.print_band('title')
   
    firstname = cust.firstname.display_text
    country = cust.country.display_text
    phone = cust.phone.display_text
    report.print_band('test', locals())

Report template is in attachment.

Just split the cells if that is acceptable.

And this are final docs. I see no issues.

Hi Dražen. 

I need to print all text in one row, not splited columns.

Hi Danijel,

It seems that there is some kind of parse error with the way Jam understands text within a ODS column and a variable (which is still text but with special formatting).

I have not noticed the issue because all I use reports for are for invoice-like statements but I have a solution to your problem:

for columns that contain text together with more than one variables you can use the text concatenate operator within the text column to insert variables from other columns (they can be hidden).

Have a look at the attached .ods file, I think it will work for you.

Regards,

Manos

The only way I could print is to place it like this:

It is a LibreOffice nuisance....
