Steps: Create Custom Business Form Layout for Consolidated Invoices

You can create your own custom business form layouts for consolidated invoices and associate them with the consolidated customer invoice print layouts. You can also replace a delivered layout using XSL stylesheet, Report Designer, or Docs for Layouts.
  1. Create a consolidated customer invoice layout using 1 of these options:
  2. Create a custom business form layout.
    1. Access the
      Create Business Form Layout
      task.
    2. Select the
      Active
      check box.
    3. Enter the number of days for retaining consolidated customer invoices before they expire in the
      Resulting Document Expiration Offset (in days)
      field. The maximum value is 25,000.
      Ensure that the expiration offset you specify complies with your organization's document retention policy. Workday automatically deletes documents after the offset number of days. You can't recover these documents.
    4. Select a business form layout from 1 of these prompts:
      • XSL Attachment
      • Report Design
      • Document Layout
    5. Select a
      Custom Report
      .
    6. Add the
      Token Name
      for the company logo and signature:
      • company_logo
      • po_signature
      These tokens are only in your XSL stylesheet or Report Designer business form layout.
    Security:
    Custom Report Creation
    in the System functional area.
  3. Access the
    Configure Business Form Layout
    task.
    Upload images for the company logo and signature tokens.
    Security:
    Custom Report Creation
    in the System functional area.
  4. Associate your custom layout with the consolidated customer invoice print layout.
    1. Access the
      Create Consolidated Customer Invoice Print Layout
      task.
    2. Select the custom form you created for the custom business form layout for consolidated invoices.
    3. Check the applicable
      Include Company Logo
      and
      Include Signature
      options.
    Security:
    Set Up: Customer Accounts
    domain in the Customer Accounts functional area.
When you print consolidated customer invoices, Workday uses the custom business form layout instead of the Workday-delivered layout.
