BTW - is maybe not too difficult, on line 1863 of Env class (as of today) the format could be split again in column+format

There is a potential improvement here, at this moment is not possible to format a column that comes from another table.
The notation for format is something like @DateAcct<yyyy-MM-dd>@
And the notation here for foreign columns is something like @C_Invoice_ID<DateAcct>@
That creates a problem that the DateAcct can be formatted when coming from the record being printed, but not when coming from another record.
A possible solution could be to support a combined notation like @C_Invoice_ID<DateAcct<yyyy-MM-dd>>@

xref: https://idempiere.atlassian.net/browse/IDEMPIERE-82?focusedCommentId=11484
the aim of this improvement to allow configure print files operating system filename before file is saved, override default filename eg. InvoiceFormatGroupLinesbyCategory__5099627889056305320.pdf to SCO20210406-001
Requirement & changes
1. add "FileNamePattern" field to ad_printformat
2. all report files will be stored on linux tmp in folders (using new Method FileUtil.createTempFile), avoid conflict (filename_timestamp), applied when sending report as email too
4. new Method: FileUtil.createTempFile -(based on File.createTempFile) - Instead of creating unique tempfile it will create unique temp directory with File name [prefix].[sufix] .
5. Temp Folder Format: [java.io.tmpdir]/rpttmp_[yyyyMMddHHmmss]_[AD_SESSION_ID]/
6. support for all format types supported in reportengine pdf, html, xls(x)
7. FileNamePattern is applied as ReportName affecting print preview name
6. support for forms and not forms (tabular reports)
7. if FileNamePattern is null - we will use tmp folder. Default Name format will be [PrintFormat_trl.Name]_[yyyyMMddHHmmss]
setup example
invoice_@DocumentNo@
rechnung_@DocumentNo@ (on _trl)
