Use

In this Customizing activity, you configure the print destination that is used to print automatically and manually generated print requests. A print destination always consists of a print station and a printer.

By entering the selection criteria Labeling Scenario (required entry field), SAP System (required entry field), Client (required entry field), and Plant or Shipping Point (optional entry field), you define the labeling scenario, SAP system, and possibly the plant for which the print destination settings configured here apply. If you do not enter any selection criteria, a print destination cannot be assigned.

By entering the filter criteria Work Center, Label Category, and Report Generation Variant, you can restrict the assignment of the print destination to specific criteria.

The respective print destination is defined for the automatically and manually generated print requests using the selection and filter criteria.

The settings configured in this Customizing activity are also used in Label Printing to specify a default print destination (print station and printer). You can override the print destination specified in this Customizing activity using the user parameters CCGLPID_STNID and CCGLPID_PRNID. The default settings for the fields for the print destination in label printing are only set by the system when a label is first selected: If you select another label or change the print destination manually, the default values are not set again.

Requirements

Standard settings

Activities

  • First specify the labeling scenario (required entry field), SAP system (required entry field), client (required entry field), and possibly plant (optional field) for which the print destination settings apply.
  • By defining filter criteria, you can restrict the assignment of the print destination to specific criteria defined for print requests. The filter criteria are checked in the following order and with the following priority:

  1. Report Generation Variant: If you do not specify a report generation variant here, the print destination defined in this Customizing activity applies to all report generation variants assigned to the print requests.
  2. Label Category: If you do not specify a label category here, the print destination defined in this Customizing activity applies to all label categories assigned to the print requests.
  3. Work Center: If you do not specify a work center here, the print destination defined in this Customizing activity applies to all work centers assigned to the print requests.

  • You do not have to specify all of the filter criteria. If you enter only the work center, for example, the print destination is assigned only when this work center is selected. That is, if the work center specified here is relevant, the specified print destination is assigned.
  • If a filter criterion with a higher priority is specified, this value is checked before the subsequent filter criteria. If labels with the specified report generation variant were found, for example, the print destination is assigned to this report generation variant. If no labels with the specified report generation variant exist, the next entry in this Customizing activity that contains values is checked.
  • If a print request is to be output multiple times using different print destinations, you must specify a print sequence for each copy of the print request.

    This setting does not apply if one print request is segmented across multiple print destinations: For example, you cannot enter a print sequence to distribute print requests with sequential numbers or sequential data across multiple print destinations.

  • If you use labeling scenarios to automatically create print requests, you must assign a print destination to the labeling scenarios. Otherwise, a print destination cannot be automatically assigned to the labels when the print request is created.

Example

  • Labeling Scenario: General
  • SAP System ID: XYZ
  • Client: 001
  • Report Generation Variant: GLM_TRO_01
  • Sequence: 0001
  • Print Station: WORKSTATION2
  • Printer: LEXMARK_17A

The specified print destination (printer LEXMARK_17A in print station WORKSTATION2) applies to the labeling scenario General in SAP system XYZ. The print destination is assigned to report generation variant GLM_TRO_01. If the print request with these settings and the specified filter criteria is to be printed multiple times, the first print request is output to the print destination assigned here.
