If you have long item names, quantities, etc., you may sometimes find that these get truncated in printed documents like invoices. To correct this, you can customize the widths of the columns in the printed documents.

To change the width of columns, you can drag the column headers as shown below.

The widths of the columns in the corresponding printed document will follow the same proportions as you have set on screen. For example, you can customize the column widths of the printed Sales Invoice by changing the column widths in the Invoice tab of a Sales Order. 

You can also use this solution to remove columns you do not wish to appear.  As an example if you do not wish the discount column to appear on your invoice you can simply drag the divider all the way to the left, this will indicate to inFlow that it should be removed from the printed document.

Once you have set column widths, you can save this to be used by everyone in your company by right clicking in the column header and choosing to ‘Save column proportions’ for the appropriate document.

Once you have saved the column proportions, you can change the widths of the columns on the screen without changing the widths on the printed documents.

You can also choose to ‘Clear column proportions’, which will delete the saved column proportions. The printed documents will then once again follow the same column proportions as shown on the screen.

Other users will need to restart their copies of inFlow before the changes from saving or clearing column proportions will take effect for them.
