Procedures

• GetPrinterName(ReportID: Integer; var PrinterName: Text[250])
• GetCompanyMetadata(var CompanyMetadata: JsonObject) + BC29: Populates the shared CompanyMetadata payload from Company Information for the report layouts’ company block. Empty-safe: with no Company Information record the fields are emitted blank rather than erroring. Public so it can be invoked/verified directly; extension and localization fields are added by…

Plus 2 local procedures.

Procedure bodies are not stored here (D10). The call sections above are our own, per object, from the BC29 call graph. For a procedure body or the calls of one procedure, ask bc-code-atlas (external, by Stefan Maron, MIT; default corpus w1-28), which the bc-observatory plugin connects: bcatlas_resolve_node(object_type: "codeunit", object_name: "ReportManagement"), then bcatlas_get_procedure_body or bcatlas_get_neighbors on the returned id.
