Use
This Customizing activity describes how to configure WWI generation servers (WWI servers) for label printing on a generation PC. You use the WWI servers to generate print files for labels.
The WWI generation servers are used to determine a label from the label template and from the data to be printed on the label. Once the label has been determined, it can be processed further in Label Printing as follows:
- Preview: The label is loaded on the PC of the user and then opened.
- Print Label: A print file is created on the WWI generation server, loaded onto the PC of the user, and printed using the glmPT.exe print program from Global Label Management.
Requirements
- You have configured the WWI server and established the required RFC connections.
- You have installed the program for printing labels on the work center PC.
Standard settings
Activities
In the Customizing activity Specify Environment Parameters, specify the following environment parameters:
- WWI_GENSERVER_SYN_ANCHOR: Directory of the synchronous WWI server
- WWI_GENSERVER_SYN_DEST: RFC Destinations for Synchronous WWI Server
- WWI_WEBGUI_MIME_TYPE: MIME type of display in SAP GUI for HTML
The WWI generation servers for label printing are synchronous servers. If several employees in a company print labels at the same time, we recommend that you configure multiple WWI generation servers. This ensures that response times remain short. All of the WWI generation servers use the RFC destination defined above. Loads are distributed automatically between the WWI generation servers.
