Allow print for draft

[Rahul-R]

I had disabled the Allow Print for Draft in the print settings, however I need to allow print for draft for only certain documents. Any possibility to achieve this either using client script or any other methods.

Hi @Rahul-R,

First, enable the Allow Print for Draft in Print Setting.
If don’t want to print in the Draft stage then apply it in a particular doctype.

Here we set in Purchase Order DocType.
So apply the client script.

frappe.ui.form.on('Purchase Order', {
    refresh: function(frm) {
        if(frm.doc.docstatus != 1) {
            $("button[data-original-title=Print]").hide();
            frm.page.menu.find('[data-label="Print"]').parent().parent().remove();
        }
    }
});

Also, remove the print option from the Menu list.

Output:

In Draft Stage:

After Submit:

How To Hide Print Button With Script from Sales Invoice

Hi @msiam, Please apply custom/client script. If use the role set in the condition then will hide some options from the desk. frappe.ui.form.on('Sales Invoice', { refresh(frm) { if (frappe.user_roles.indexOf("Sales User") ==-1) { $("button[data-original-title=Print]").hide(); } } }); Then reload and check it. Thank You!

I hope this helps.

Thank You!

Dear @NCP , This solution hides print menu working fine.
But still system allows the user to print the document by pressing Cntrol+p. How to stop it?

[NCP]

Please try it.

When Control + p used then will print the doctype, not the document.

[ErpnextRaja]

I tried, while i am inside sales invoice number 2, and by pressing cntrl+p, it is giving print format same when we click print button.

[NCP]

yes, it’s possible in v15, but it is not possible to open the document in v14. Code worked for v14, not 15.

[NCP]

Hi @ErpnextRaja,

And if you want to stop ctrl+p for version 14 and 15, then please apply the client script.

frappe.ui.keys.add_shortcut({
    shortcut: "ctrl+p",
    action: () => function(e) {
        return false;
    }
});

Thank You!
