Use

In Global Label Management, you can print labels via manually generated print requests. Print request generation takes place in Label Printing following label determination. Print requests can be generated a number of times for the labels determined.

Processing Print Requests

The print requests are controlled internally using the print request API (function group CBGL_PRINT_REQUEST_API). This means that all Global Label Management print requests are managed in this API. Print requests are created, changed, and deleted using the print request API. The print request API is also used to print the labels and to request the file for the label preview. This enables you to integrate the print request API into different processes in Global Label Management.

The print request API is integrated into the labeling workbench and the Label Printing transaction.

Label printing with a print request is carried out manually using the labeling workbench or automatically after the print request has been generated manually or automatically. For more information, see the Customizing activity Print Print Request Manually and Automatically.

Labeling Workbench

The print request generated, which contains the label generated on the WWI server as well as the header data and parameter values, can be processed in the labeling workbench. This means that print requests can be printed here or changed, copied, or deleted before printing. You can also call a preview of the print request.

If print requests cannot be generated, check the error messages for the object EHPR in the Log Display in the labeling workbench.

Standard settings

Activities

Test the manual print request generation.

  1. Open Label Printing.
  2. Select a labeling scenario, such as Process Order, and enter the required values.
  3. Enter a material for which you want to determine labels and choose Label Tree.

    The system determines all the labels that exist for the material and displays them in the Label Tree group box.

  4. Select a label by double-clicking it.

    You can change the displayed values and settings for the selected label.

  5. Select a print station and a printer.
  6. Generate a print request by choosing the Create Print Request pushbutton.

    The system generates the print request and label on the local WWI server connected.

  7. Check the generated print request in the print information system of the labeling workbench.

If no print requests were generated, check the error messages for the object EHPR in the Log Display of the labeling workbench.
