Documentation
Definition
Specifies which print technology is used to print out the subform in the electronic batch record. Currently, SAP provides the option of printing out forms based on the following technologies:
- SAPscript print forms (created with Form Painter)
- PDF-based print forms (created with Form Builder)
Use
Dependencies
The print program specified for the subdocument and the print form must be suitable for the selected print technology. It is not possible to print out a PDF-based form using a print program that merely invokes the SAPscript interfaces for printing.
