it; when you click on it, you will find the quotation/sale order
button.

Set Correct printer Error
Error: If you've designated a report for a color printer
and
the selected printer isn't a color printer, it will generate an
error. Similarly, if you haven't designated a color printer in the
report but the selected printer is a color printer, it will prompt
an error requesting a change in the printer configuration.
