Coming Soon: On April 2nd, all Suggestion Boxes will be migrating to The Network, Trimble's online user community. Your posts, votes, comments, and user accounts will transfer. This site will become read-only after the migration, and this banner will have a link to the new location for Vista suggestions.

when posting a batch, automatically revalidate to Attach ALL Batch Reports to HQ Batch

We have Company Parameters - Audit Options checked to Attach Batch Reports to HQ Batch Control.

However, when users are posting a batch and have performed " File, Process Batch, Validate" , they often uncheck reports they don't want to preview / print. This causes the reports to NOT attach to the HQ Batch. They do not realize this has even happened.

I manually validate a second time to be sure all boxes are checked , and then post the batch. Applies to any module with batch files.

My suggestions is to have the system re-validate as part of the posting process. This would ensure that all reports are attached in HQ.  Or alternately, automatically attach all the reports (ignoring what is unchecked after the file is validated)

    I'm voting particularly for this part so that a user who is posting can't cause the batch reports not to be there later.

    Or alternately, automatically attach all the reports (ignoring what is unchecked after the file is validated)
