Description

Here, you define the output types for output type records. The output type represents different output, such as quotations, order confirmations and exchange statements in the SAP System.

To define an output type, make the following entries:

  • Output type
    Alphanumeric key with up to 4 characters to identify the output condition
  • Access sequence
    Access sequence key.
  • Description
    Text describing the output type.
  • Detail data (more information on other possible customizing options can be found using the field help):
    • Transmission medium
      One-digit key which defines the type of output processing (e.g., printout, message sent by telefax or mail).
    • Time
      One-digit, numeric key which defines the time of output processing (e.g., immediately when saving a document or during the next selection run).
    • Partner function
      Partner function for defining the recipient of an output in the Sales & Distribution document.
    • Condition access
      Indicator which controls whether the output is to be proposed using the condition technique; if you do not set this indicator, the system finds the output using the proposal in the Customer Master record. However, you must first set the corresponding defaults for output determination from the Customer Master record.
    • Print parameters
      One-digit, numeric key which defines the requirements on the basis of which the print parameters are defined.
    • Archiving mode
      This field controls whether a document is printed, archived or both.
    • Document type of archive object
      This field identifies the archived outputs and determines whether it is an invoice, quotation, etc. The archiving object type of the incoming document begins with SDI and that of the outgoing document with SDO.

Example

Requirements

Standard settings

Recommendation

  1. To create a new output type, copy a similar output type in the system and make the necssary changes.
  2. If you define your own output types, the key should begin with the letter Y or Z as SAP reserves these name convenions in the standard SAP System.

Activities

Check to what extent you can use output types contained in the SAP system and to what extent you must change them.

Define output types for all SD documents.

Further notes

The values entered for output type, time and partner function for the detail data are automatically transferred as default values when creating a condition record by output condition.
