Hi Kavishka,

Greetings from Syncfusion support.

We have validated your query “Export PDF with different user colors” at our end. You can print the Schedule with the individual resource colors by removing the color field from the parent-level resource settings and keeping the color field in the child-level resource settings as highlighted below. We have prepared a sample for your reference.

[Default.aspx]

        <ej:Schedule ID="Schedule2">

            <resources>

                <ej:Resources Field="Categorize" Name="Categorize" Title="Departments" AllowMultiple="true">

                    <resourcesettings id="id" text="text">

                    </resourcesettings>

                </ej:Resources>

                <ej:Resources Field="Owner" Name="Owner" Title="Users" AllowMultiple="true">

                    <resourcesettings color="color" id="id" text="text" groupid="groupId">

                    </resourcesettings>

                </ej:Resources>

            </resources>

            <group resources="Categorize,Owner" />

       </ej:Schedule>

Kindly let us know if you need any further assistance on this.

Thank you, It worked well,

But I'm having some other issues,

1) If I use the control with 'StartHour' and 'EndHour' Propeties, The exported PDF view is getting wrong time. If I remove  'StartHour' and 'EndHour' Propeties its working fine.

The Scheduler View -

The PDF View for this with StartHour and Endhour Properties - 

2) If I created a meeting for 2 days PDF view is getting something like this -

The 'Test 2 day long' Meeting - 

This is the exported PDF for this - 

I hope I supplied necessary information.

Thank you so much.

Thank you, I'm getting another question about same user in resources more than once.

I'm having same user assigned for different departments, After I create an appointment for a user and Export a PDF, Every user who duplicated have the same appointment.

Exported PDF - 

More names also available in the exported PDF but cant see in the scheduler - They are filtered using this 

But in the PDF its coming.

Thank you

Hi Kavishka,

Q1: I'm having same user assigned for different departments, After I create an appointment for a user and Export a PDF, Every user who duplicated have the same appointment.

We suspect that you have used the same id for the resource under a different group. So, we suggest you use the unique id for each resource to avoid duplicate appointment problems in the exported pdf.

[Default.aspx.cs]

        protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)

        {

            departments.Add(new Resource { text = "Administration", id = "1", color = "#f8a398" });

            departments.Add(new Resource { text = "Public Works", id = "2", color = "#56ca85" });

            departments.Add(new Resource { text = "Abilene Police Dept", id = "3", color = "#51a0ed" });

 

            users.Add(new Resource { text = "Kari Zook", id = "1", color = "#ff8787", groupId = "1" });

            users.Add(new Resource { text = "Marcus RothChild", id = "2", color = "#9775fa", groupId = "1" });

            users.Add(new Resource { text = "Kari Zook", id = "9", color = "#ff8787", groupId = "2" });

 

            Schedule2.Resources[0].ResourceSettings.DataSource = departments;

            Schedule2.Resources[1].ResourceSettings.DataSource = users;

        }

Q2: More names also available in the exported PDF but cant see in the scheduler - They are filtered using this

You can print the specific resources by filling out the resources and updating the resources property of the Schedule while exporting the pdf as shown in the below code snippet.

[Default.aspx]

    <script type="text/javascript">

        var appointmentGroupId = 0;

        function onExportClick(args) {

            var obj = $("#Schedule2").data("ejSchedule");

            if (obj) {

                var categoryData = obj.model.resources[0].resourceSettings.dataSource;

                obj.model.resources[0].resourceSettings.dataSource = obj.model.resources[0].resourceSettings.dataSource.filter((e) => { return e.id == '1' });

                var owerData = obj.model.resources[0].resourceSettings.dataSource;

                obj.model.resources[1].resourceSettings.dataSource = obj.model.resources[1].resourceSettings.dataSource.filter((e) => { return e.groupId == '1' });

                obj.exportSchedule(null, "exportPDF", null);

                obj.model.resources[0].resourceSettings.dataSource = categoryData;

                obj.model.resources[1].resourceSettings.dataSource = owerData;

            }

        }

   </script>
