New Layout

Access this form using Reports>Forms Designer>OK button> New Layout.

Use this form to open a new Forms Designer layout. You will select the Layout Type, Printer Type, and Template.

The only types that are listed in the Layout Type box are those associated with the modules installed. For example, if the Accounts Payable module is not installed, "A/P Checks" does not appear in the Layout Type drop-down list. Each Layout Type has a template associated with it. The system only allows a template to be selected that is related to the Layout Type chosen.

Layout Type: Select a layout type from the drop-down list. The layout type, such as Write Checks, is used to filter the templates available for Write Checks.

Printer TypeLaser, Continuous: Select a printer type of either Laser or Continuous. Keep in mind that the type of printer selected determines the size of the form. For example, for Continuous, the checks only have one stub (stub>check). For Laser, the checks have two stubs (stub>check>stub).

Choose Template Pre-printed Stock: To print a form on pre-printed stock, make sure this check box is selected, and then select a template for the chosen Layout Type using the drop-down list. Each Layout Type has a template associated with it. Select "None" to create a custom layout from scratch.

If printing a form on pre-printed stock, make sure the "Pre-printed Stock" check box is selected on this form.
