Output determination routines

Hi,
I have an enhancement to develop output determination routines for the Output types in the Shipment document to trigger outbound interface to the Freight Forwarder based on the Shipment statuses.
Need to develop 2 routines say 950,951.
SD Shipment :
Output Type      Application      Routine Number
ZE01                           V7                              9XX
ZE02                            V7                              9XX
Routine for ZE01.
For the Shipment document number in the table VTTK (VTTK-TKNUM),check status VTTK-STTRG = 1 (Planning completed) then the Output will be triggered.
Routine for ZE02.
For the Shipment document in the table VTTK table check the status in VTTK-STRRG = 4 (Loading End) then issue the output.
I have created the routines and wrote the code for ZE01 like below.
FORM KOBED_984.
*if status of vttk-sttrg(Overall transportation status) is 1,(Planning completed) then outputtype is triggered.
IF VTTK-STTRG = 1.
SY-SUBRC = 0.
ELSE.
   SY-SUBRC = 4.
ENDIF.
ENDFORM.
This will work fine.?Or I need to consider the shipment document number anywhere.?NAST-OBJECTKEY will hold the document number.?i need to loop it.?or just the sy-subrc check is only required..?
Kindly help..

Hi,
If you really want to be 100% sure that your requirements are rechecked before output, you need to use your own entry module when processing NASt output
See e.G. in TNAPR for your output type which print program/ form entry is used and replace it by your own entry module : Then you can check your own rules again and cancel before doing the actual output( i.e. don't call the 'processing' form )
( contra : you need make a copy of standard print program )
Alternatively, you could check e.g. the userexits that are triggered when reading the document data to be printed and set the correct return code ( r.g. retcode = 4 when your validations are not met ). This will stop processing also. ( e.g. GET_DATA_USEREXIT )
The correct names of the variables etc..depend on the print program that you are actually using .
( pro : Could maybe be done without copying standard print program )
Is it still standard print program ?

Output determination.( Routine)

Hi,
We are having a new order type.
We need to check few things before the output is determined.
I will just elaborate here.
Spro ->SD -> Basic Functions -> output control -> Maintain output determination for sales docs -> Maintain output determination procedure.
We get diff procudures.
We take a order output procudure and go to the control data.
In the requirement we have requirement starting from 900.
If we do a F4 on the procudure and go to source text we get the program where i can do few checks before the output is determined.
How can i write a new routine number ?
Pls advise.
Rohita.

Let me elaborate a more.
I am having a output type z02.
This needs to defaulted at the creation of the sales orders based on some conditions.
I have created a routine say 960 in vofm.
I am putting my custom code in the include which got created.When i create the order it is not breakining at the routine which is created.
Can any one pls advise why it is not breaking at the routine.

PO Output Determination Plant in ABAP Routine

I would like to get PO Item's Plant in abap customized output condition routine to control output message type, I noticed that KOMPBEA structure for item detail is not polulated and I had search the issue on SDN, seems no resolution... I read sap note 457497 as well, it mention that it is not possible to get item level detail also...
Any idea or workaround if I insist need to check item level while PO creating (ME21N).
Thanks in advance, your help is very much appreciated.
Regards,
Weng

Thanks Narayan.
It goes into the code for the requirement that I created to check for Plant and here is the code... But the structure KOMPBEA does not get populated with any values. Is there some other structure I can use to check the value for PLANT?
FORM KOBED_979.
*{   INSERT         TSTK941598                                        1

Adobe Forms in Output Determination

We're looking at using an Adobe form to replace an existing SAPSCRIPT form in Output determination.
From SPRO, under the processing routines of the output type I can see a selection where a PDF form can be supplied.
I haven't done any detailed exploration yet.
A few questions:
>>Is there anything documented that explains how to use a PDF form created within the ABAP workbench as an output in output determination.
>>Should the processing program routine be used to call and populate data within the Adobe form?
Regards,
Lavaughn

Hi,
Did you check in transaction SFP what are the form available in your system ?
Also , check in the standard print program if it has been adapt to use Adobe Forms instead of smartforms because it's not the same FM used .

Output Determination for Credit Block/Release

Hi All,
I have a very strange problem with my Output Determination in SD.
I have created several of these in the past and this is really, really becoming frustrating now!
The scenario ...
We need a requirement to send a form via email to a customer if the credit is released or blocked in VA02. I have set this up in SPRO and VOFM (as I have said I did this before hence I know it's correct thus far) and my code in the output determination is as follows:
FORM kobed_994.
sy-subrc = 4.
* Not from the release or recheck transaction
CHECK sy-tcode+1(2) NE 'KM'.
*can use komkbv1 for further info
IF   komkbv1-cmgst EQ 'D' " released by credit responsible
AND *komkbv1-cmgst NE 'D'.
    sy-subrc = 0.
ELSE.
    sy-subrc = 4.
ENDIF.
ENDFORM.
*       FORM KOBEV_994                                                *
FORM kobev_994.
PERFORM kobed_994.
ENDFORM.
However, even when Subrc is set to 4, the email is sent with the Form!! I am really frustrated at this and has gave me problems for a while ... I also have searched for similar scenario to no avail
We are running 4.6c if that helps

Also forgot to mention ... The routine does get run!

OutPut as a PDF doc for Output Determination process of a PO

Hi
Can I get the OutPut as a PDF document for OutPut Determination process of a PO for a Vendor.
My schema should produce a PDF file and get transmitted to that Vendor as soon i save my PO.
Also can i get any SAP document on this.
Pls help me. Swifty reply me.
cheers
MaruthiRam

Hi,
PO can be sent to using Outlook email or the Internal send within SAP.
Message via E-Mail
Use
You can send purchasing documents to a vendor by e-mail.
You can also send memos to an internal user from within the purchasing document, in which case the recipient can directly access the relevant document when processing the e-mail (executable mail).
Prerequisites
External Transmission
Make the necessary Customizing settings
The SAP system is configured for the transmission of external mails.
The message determination facility has been set up in Customizing for Purchasing.
You have defined a communication strategy in Customizing under Messages Output Control -> Message Types -> Define Message Types for <Purchasing Document> -> Maintain Message Types for <Purchasing Document> on the Default Values tab page, so that if no e-mail address can be found, for example, the system sends a fax.
The following information is necessary:
1.Data
2.Value
3.Comment
Message type:
Communication strategy
E.g. NEU
Choose a communication strategy or create a new one. Via the input help, you can branch to the maintenance function for communication strategies. Choose in the following window.
Enter the necessary data on the Default Values tab page on the detail screen for the message type ().
Processing routines
Medium
Program
FORM routine
5 (external transmission)
SAPF06P (e.g. for PO)
ENTRY_NEU
The entries are identical to those of the print output.
Partner roles
E.g. external transmission/LF
Maintain master data
Message records must have been created through master data maintenance (Purchasing menu). (See Creating Message Records)
Enter the necessary data u2013 for example, role LF (vendor), medium 5 (external transmission) and time spot 4 (send immediately upon saving).
SAP recommends that you work with time spot 4, so that the e-mails generated are sent immediately.
If you work with processing time spot 1 (send via periodically scheduled job), you must schedule the program RSNAST00 periodically for message output, so that messages are generated and e-mails sent.
An e-mail address is stored in the vendor master record.
An e-mail address is stored in the user master record.
Please note that you must also maintain an e-mail address for user IDs with which batch-jobs are carried out.
Internal Transmission
Make the necessary Customizing settings:
You have maintained the Customizing settings for Purchasing under Messages, Output Control -> Message Types ->Define Message Types for <Purchasing Document> -> Maintain Message Types for <Purchasing Document>.
The following information is necessary:
1.Data
2.Value
3.Comment
Message type:
Time-spot
Transmission medium (output medium)
Partner role
E.g. MAIL
E.g. 4 (send immediately upon saving)
7 (SAPoffice)
MP (mail partner)
Enter the necessary data on the Default Values tab page on the detail screen for the message type ().
Mail title and texts
E.g. mail from purchase order
Processing routines
Medium
Program
FORM routine
7 (SAPoffice)
RSNASTSO
SAPOFFICE_AUFRUF
Partner roles
E.g. SAPoffice/MP
SAPoffice/LF
Maintain master data
Message records must have been created for the message type MAIL through master data maintenance (Purchasing menu). (See Creating Message Records)
For more information on the internal and external transmission of e-mails, refer to the Basis documentation under Business Workplace (BC-SRV-GBT).
Further information on external transmission is available in the Basis documentation under SAPconnect and in the section External Sending in the SAP System.
Activities
External Transmission
If you have specified the processing time-spot 4 (send immediately upon saving), the system will immediately generate and transmit a message when you save the purchasing document.
If you have specified the processing time-spot 1 (send via periodically scheduled job), you must initiate the output of e-mails manually.
Result
You see the documents generated in the SAP system under Office ->Work center -> Outbox -> Documents.
Internal Transmission
On the message screen of the Purchasing application (e.g. in the purchase order), enter the message type, the medium (SAPoffice) and the role (MP = mail partner).
Choose Means of communication and enter your text on the following screen (<Purchasing document>: Send with note). Enter the useru2019s first and last names, for example, in the Recipient field.
Executable mail
If you wish to insert a transaction (because you want the recipient to view a purchase order, for example), choose Goto -> Execution parameters. Enter the necessary data, such as execution type (T = transaction), execution element (ME22N = Change Purchase Order), execution system, and the SET/GET parameters (BES for purchase order).
Result
If you have specified send immediately as the processing time-spot, the user will immediately receive a message or document when the purchase order is saved.
The user can view the message sent to him or her via Office -> Work center -> Inbox.
If the document in your inbox is an executable mail, you can click the right-hand mouse button and directly access the relevant purchase order, for example, via the menu thus displayed.
Hope it works...

Kiran

Output determination does not happen during Sales Document creation

Hello All,
I am facing an issue where the automatic output determination does not happen when the Sales Order is created. Let me explain a bit on the background.
Output type ZDL2 has been defined as a special function (TNAPR-NACHA = 8) attached to a custom program and Form routine to create Outbound delivery after successful posting of the sales order.
Condition records are maintained to trigger this output for the Key Combination of Sales Org/Distrib Channel/Division/Route. Access sequence has also been correctly maintained for the above fields.
When the Sales order is saved, the output is supposed to be triggered but out of several sales orders created, it triggered for just one document. We have no clues on what could be the issue.
One question here is, can we have the access sequence maintained for the fields from both header and item level (ie KOMKBV1 and KOMPBV1). Please be reminded that, in our case, the field ROUTE comes from the field catalog KOMPBV1.
Another point which we noticed is that, the Function Module COMMUNICATION_AREA_KOMPBV1 which is supposed to fill the Item data Communication structure for output determination was never called.
Has anyone came across such situations. Comments or suggestions are really appreciated.
Kind Regards
Sabu Kuriakose

Sabu Kuriakose,
Since you are using ROUTE as one parameter for the condition table, and it is at the item level.
the output is triggered at the header level.
So a sales order can contain multiple items with different routes. so at header level how will u identify the route ?
the fields might be available for creatign the condition table but the problem is the fields should get the value during order processing.
in the analsysis screen you will know that the field is getting the value of the ROUTE or not ?
also for creating a delivery you need a shipping point. same as above you can hae multiple items with different shipping points. how will u consider that scenario.
If you can explain that, then that will be helpful to answer your problem.

Email PO to buyer via output determination

I'm trying to configure the emailing of a PO to a buyer (ME partner function) or alternatively user responsible (VU partner function) using output determination. I do not wish to use the vendor partner function.
I've got a condition table where I can select by purchasing group. In the output condition record, where VU is assigned to the purchasing group, what should the Partner value be? The SAP User ID?
Or if I were to use the ME buyer partner function, how do I tie the buyer specific email address to the condition record?
Thanks, Vlad

Hi,
Hopefully this desc may be of some help to you.
Basically there are two mail types: Internet mail (external mail) and
SAPOffice mail.
Mail is sent via the output determination in both cases.
If you use the external mail, the message for the purchasing document is
converted into a corresponding text file which is sent to the vendor via
the Internet.
SAPOffice mail is sent only within the R/3 System and has mainly the
function of providing information.
In particular, it is not possible to attach a message (form) for a
purchasing document to a SAPOffice mail.
When using external mail, the following basic settings are required:
1. You must maintain an e-mail address in the address in the vendor
master.
2. The same applies to your own user master. You also have to specify
an e-mail address there in order to identify the sender.
o Note that it is not possible to change the e-mail address of the endor
o You can use a temporary email address in Transaction ME21N.
3. For the output type for default values, a communication strategy
needs to be maintained in the Customizing that supports the e-mail.
You can find the definition of the communication strategy in the
Customizing via the following path: (SPRO -> IMG -> SAP Web
Application Server -> Basic Services -> Message Control -> Define
Communication Strategy). As a default, communication strategy CS01
is delivered. This already contains the necessary entry for the
external communication. Bear in mind that without a suitable
communication strategy it is not possible to communicate with a
partner via Medium 5 (external sending).
4. Use the standard SAP environment (program 'SAPFM06P', FORM routine
'ENTRY_NEU' and form 'MEDRUCK') as the processing routines.
5. In the condition records for the output type (for example,
Transaction MN04), use medium '5' (External send).
6. You can use Transaction SCOT to trigger the output manually. The
prerequisite for a correct sending is that the node is set
correctly. This is not described here, but it must have already been
carried out.
7. To be able to display, for example, the e-mail in Outlook, enter PDF
as the format in the node.
To use the SAPOffice mail, the following basic settings are required:
1. For the output type for default values, a communication strategy
needs to be maintained in the Customizing that supports the e-mail.
You can branch to the maintenance of the communication strategy via
the input help.
2. Use the SAP standard environment (program "RSNASTSO" and FORM
routine "SAPOFFICE_AUFRUF") as the processing routines.
3. In the condition records for the output type (for example,
Transaction MN04), use medium '7' (SAPOffice) and also partner role
'MP' (mail partner).
Additional settings:
Problem:
How can you both change the mail title and text for the sending of a
mail message and maintain a replacement parameter, for example a
document number.
Solution:
1. The replacement routine is maintained in the Customizing for the
output type in the detail screen on the 'General data' tab under
'Replacement of text symbols' (for Release < 4.6B, this can be found
on the 'Mail' tab page).
Program: SAPMM06E
FORM routine: TEXT_SYMBOL_REPLACE
2. Maintain mail title and text.
o If you want to send a purchase order within an R/3 system using
the SAP office, you can maintain both the mail title ('Re:') and
also a mail text in the Customizing for the output type To do
this, select the directory mail title and text for the
corresponding message type.
o If you want to send a purchase order as (external) mail, for
example, to a vendor, you have to maintain the mail title in the
condition record for the output type (for example in Transaction
MN05) on the 'Communication method' tab page. Enter the mail
title in the 'Text for cover page' field. You cannot maintain an
additional mail text.
o Note that the values from the mail title are used to create the
description for the attachment.
3. The replacement parameters must be enclosed by &. Example: You want
to enter the title 'PO number '. For this you have to enter
the following in the Document Title field (Message Customizing ->
sub-option: Mail title and texts) 'PO number &EKKO-EBELN&'

So, pls. let me know that,
1 - Why am gettign RED light? Wht culd b the reasons?
2 - How to fix it to get it GREEN?

Hi,
Did you try debugging the print program? Also check the output determination analysis.
Follow below path. Once you are in outputs edit screen...
Select your output, menu=>Goto=>Determination analysis(or ctrl+f1).
Here you can see what went right and wrong for all the outputs allowed for that order. You can see there might be some routines which has not been satidfied. Check this analysis for your output and see what is wrong.
Condition records might also be missing. Check with your functional for this.

Output Determination For Posted Invoice

When an invoice is posted against a purchase order I need the system to create an IDOC for external transmission.
I already have a partner profile setup for the external party (vendor). How do I go about setting up the output determination?
Thanks - points will be rewarded.

Hello, Brian
To setup the Output determination for Invoice Verification, follow the steps:
You can configure these settings through t.code: NACE
or NACT
By specifying the Application: MR (this is for INVOICE)
Select -> Application MR -> Press Output types
then -> Select your Output type
(choose LIEF, if Output is for External Vendor).
-> goto Details
then
-> choose the relevent fields in Default values Tab (i.e, mainly Dispatch TimeTransmission medium Ex: 5-External send and 6-EDI similarly Partner function Ex: VN-Vendor,etc )
then
-> Processing routines
-> Partner functions
Suggestion: You can use NACE or NACT (either)
Hope this will clarifies you,
Reward, if it helps,

Output determination for ordering address

Hi
In our business, more than one ordering address might be available for the same vendor. Therefore, we need to send Purchase Orders to different Ordering Address for the same vendor.Kindly help how to maintian the output determination for this.

Hi Prabhu
Output determination
What is output?
Output is communication. When we create a transaction in sales & distribution, and save the transaction we may have to communicate to the concerned business partner about the transaction.
Example;
Customer--Purchase Order-VA01 (Create sales Order)- save the sales order- send the order confirmation to the customer
Here the output is Order confirmation
This output is sent to business partner-Customer-Sold to Party
Other Examples: Quotation, Invoice, Delivery note, Packing List
Output determination happens through Condition Technique.
Condition records are very important here. And these records contain answers to following questions.
a)     What is the Output Type? Order confirmation or Invoice etc
b)     Who is the recipient? A Sold-to-party or Payer etc.
c)     What is the media? Take print out and send, or as email? Or Fax? Or EDI (Electronic data Interchange)
d)     When output to be processed? Immediately when the transaction saved or scheduled to happen at particular Time etc
e)     In which language the output to be prepared
