Definition

Shows that the print diversion is active

Use

There are two types of print diversion:

  • Print diversion of the shop papers to the work center printer

    The work center printer is only used for the shop papers (completion confirmation slip and wage slip). You choose the work center printer later in the application menu Change Work Center.

  • Print Diversion via Customizing

    The activated print diversion always has the highest priority when determining a printer. It takes precedence over the user-specific selection and the work center printer.

Some shop papers only allow a diversion at header level, whereas for others the operation and material structures are also filled.

The dialog window for printing shows if a print diversion is active. The printer on which the papers were output is not specified. Only when you print do you see on which printer the shop paper was printed. It can also happen that for one paper, multiple pages are printed on different printers.

The following list gives you an overview of the papers and the possible print diversions:
