The output of the last report is handled only, if multiple reports are executed without a request page within the same transaction.

[innonav-dev]

1. Describe the bug If more than one report without a request page is executed within the same transaction, then the result of the last report is returned only. The print output of all other reports is ignored.

2. To Reproduce

1. Write a piece of code which execute more than one report without a request page.
2. Execute the code / action

Code example:

pageextension 50101 "My Customer List Ext" extends "Customer List"
{
    actions
    {
        addfirst(processing)
        {
            action(TestPrintWithoutConfirm)
            {
                Caption = 'Test Printing - without confirm';
                Promoted = true;
                PromotedCategory = Process;
                PromotedOnly = true;

                trigger OnAction()
                var
                    SalesInvoiceHeader: Record "Sales Invoice Header";
                    SalesShipmentHeader: Record "Sales Shipment Header";
                begin
                    SalesInvoiceHeader.FindFirst();
                    SalesInvoiceHeader.SetRecFilter();
                    SalesInvoiceHeader.PrintRecords(false);

                    SalesShipmentHeader.FindLast();
                    SalesShipmentHeader.SetRecFilter();
                    SalesShipmentHeader.PrintRecords(false);

                    Message('Done');
                end;
            }
            action(TestPrintWithConfirm)
            {
                Caption = 'Test Printing - with confirm';
                Promoted = true;
                PromotedCategory = Process;
                PromotedOnly = true;

                trigger OnAction()
                var
                    SalesInvoiceHeader: Record "Sales Invoice Header";
                    SalesShipmentHeader: Record "Sales Shipment Header";
                begin
                    SalesInvoiceHeader.FindFirst();
                    SalesInvoiceHeader.SetRecFilter();
                    SalesInvoiceHeader.PrintRecords(false);

                    if Confirm('This confirm message separates the report calls and leads to both reports being executed correctly.') then;

                    SalesShipmentHeader.FindLast();
                    SalesShipmentHeader.SetRecFilter();
                    SalesShipmentHeader.PrintRecords(false);

                    Message('Done');
                end;
            }
        }
    }
}

3. Expected behavior Both reports should be downloaded / printed as pdf or the chosen printer.

4. Actual behavior Only the output of the last report executed is downloaded / printed.

Example: Result TestPrintWithoutConfirm: The pdf of the last report (Sales Shipment) executed is downloaded / printed only. The first (Sales Invoice) is missing.

Result TestPrintWithConfirm: Step 1: As soon as the confirm message appears, the pdf of the first report (Sales Invoice) is downloaded / printed.

Step 2: After submitting the confirm message, the second report (Sales Shipment) is also downloaded / printed successfully.

An Interruption of the code fixes the behaviour, but of course it is not a solution in any case. For example a post & print functionallity which prints some additional documents like general terms.

5. Versions:
