Automate multiple transactions & output types

Hi
We've set up VL71, VL72 & VL74 output types, but would like to automate the combined output instead of letting the user run the transactions individually. Is this possible? I'd for instance like to call these transactions and the output types per transaction should be output immediately without the checkbox selection for individual Handling Units and we'd like to AVOID BDCs.
Best regards, Adrian

I submitted these programs in a (single) background job and it worked.

How do automate using two output types in an invoice based on plant

Hello,
Can you tell me how to configure automatically two output types for the same invoice.
My client has business in USA and Europe.We are using only one sales organization. But we need to print invoices in letter size and A4 size depending on whether the invoice is created in europe or in USA. So , I have created two output types, one for letter size and one for A4 size. How do I configure so that if it is based in a plant/shipping point in Europe it is printed using the A4 output type else in letter size. Please suggest.
SAPSDUSER

I do not think you can use plant/shipping point in your access sequence for invoice output on header level, unless you add these fields to header level kommunication structure and populate these fields in userexit.
You can either
1. define requirement routines for your 2 output types which are mutually exclusive (if plant = A routine 1 returns sy-subrc = 0, routine 2 returns sy-subrc <>0, if plant = B routine 1 returns sy-subrc <>0, routine 2 returns sy-subrc = 0). You can assign requirements to output type either in output determination procedure OR in the access sequence. I would do it in output determination procedure. Check transactions NACO or NACE.
OR
2. add your fields to komkbv3 communication structure, populate your fields in thsi structure in userexits which are called from the function module komkbv3_fill and then you can either use then in the access sequence for your output types or create routines as in case 1. but the logic will be a simple check statement since KOMKBV3 is available in these routines.
3. In fact you can use one output type and select your layout in the print program itself... which may be even easier for you. We use this approach to select proper layout for GEOs which may have several layouts depending on region for example... so the output type is defined per country, then layout is selected by print program. (tnapr-fonam = ..., nast-spras = proper language, set country '' to use proper decimal & date format...)

Automatic triggering of output type in Goods issue

Hello Experts,
I am trying to pick the output type while creation of goods issue document using transaction MB1A. After creation, it is not coming automatically. I did the customization setting for maintaining conditions based on output type WA02, adding trans/Event-WA, print version-3, print item-1 but still it is not populating automatically while creation of GI document.
Could you please let me know, how to do it or if i am missing some customization.
thanks,
Karun

Hi,
To trigger the OUTPUT automatically you have to maintain the CONDITION RECORDS in MN21
Goto the Transaction code MN21 and enter the OUTPUT type as WA02 and give the following details
Trans/Event type
Print version
Print item
partner function
Medium
Date/Time
Language.
After maintaining this check whether the OUTPUT determined automatically or not.
I hope it will determine automatically.
thanks,
santosh

Email Output type : No Automatic trigger of output type while saving doc.

Hi Gurus - To trigger an email from the output type, I've configured a output type with medium as 5(external send) with communication strategy and created condition records with medium as 5 to trigger immediately.
While creating corresponding document, the output is not automatically determined, it required to manually feed the output type every time. Can you please provide if any settings were missed to trigger immediately!!
In Output analysis showing a message as "No print data determined for the communication strategy"
Steps:
1. Configured the output type with Medium as"5" and associated partner functions.
2. Created the condition records with medium as 5 and trigger immediately.
Thanks,
Sree

Hi ,
while maintaining condition record for output type when you click on communication method, give logical destination as 'LP01'.Hope this will solve.PLease let me know if you have any issues on this.
Thanks and regrads,

Proforma Invoice triggers automatically through delivery output type

Hi Gurus,
Iam facing one issue related proforma invoice, senerios is sales order- once delievry saves, it triggers one output type ZGF8, and it triggers Proforma invoice type ZGF8.
In delievry output type ZGF8, we have output program Z_EVT_LIKP_OUTPUT, and Form Rouitne CREATE_EVENT.
Now user want to differnt delivery type and differnt proforma invoice type same as above.
My question is how the system is triggers ZGF8 proforma billing type automatically, where in the system have the setting.
Please guide
Thanks
Ramki

in creation mode you can see kew combination this will show your access sequence criteria.
Go to NACR display mode in header condition info ,click condition info tab with entering any values in screen this will show the details

Multiple issue in output type

Hello,
we have output ZROS configured. No custom enhancements. Sandard EDI output us attached to it. In the config of output type, we have "multiple issue" ticked.
1) what is the meaning of multiple issuing. does it mean, that whenever someone goes into delivery in change mode and goes out of delivery, system will give a pop up that delivery has changed and if we press save, then the output will be trigerred ?
2) We have seen whenver the shipment is created for the delivery, then the transportation planning status of delivery is changes (as per standard sap ), then we see that there is another output ZROS trigerred from delivery ? Why is the output Trigerred when transportation planning status is changed for the delivery ?
regards
Pamela

1. Once you check the 'Mulitple Issuing' box then it allows you to use more than once the same output type for the same partner.
2. Answer is on your question itself, i.e., you have checked the 'Multiple Issuing' Check box for your output type so whenever you do changes in delivery so automatically same corresponding output type will be triggered.
If you don't want this to happen for every delivery changes then you shouldn't check the box.
Please try above the step to stop multiple output trigger.

Automatically assign output type sale order

Hi
when i am creating sale order ..manually assign the out put type .every time ..it has taken to time process
i need automatic assign output type to sale order..is it possible ..pls guide me in this issue could anyone.
thanks&regards
sesidhar

Hi,
It is 101 % possible through condition techniques.
what is common or require to create sales order - Answer is Sales organization.
Create condition table V/03
Select fields Sales organization & document type etc.from field catlog
genrate this table.
Now go to access sequence V/07
Create new or find which access is asigned to your OUT PUT CONDITION TYPE
Assign this newly created table in that access
Now assign this access to your out put condition type say std - BA00
Now go for condition record maintenance VV11
Put output condition >>> key combination >>> select sales organization & enter >>> maintain all data save.
Now when ever u create sales order with the sales organization,then system automatically asign this output type to order.

Output type determination in Billing document

Hi,
I have a query reg automatic determination of output type in the billing document. The scenario is, For an invoice, two output types are determined automatically for all invoices. But the third output type is determined based on Shipping point. For Example say, output type IFIB should be determined if Sh.pt is A and IFIT if sh.pt is B. This is controlled thru "Requirement" assigned to the output types in output det procedure.
The problem is, for a particular document IFIB appears though the sh.pt is B, Now i have to find out whether it is determined automatically or manually. I have checked the following
1. The "manually changed" field is not flagged in the "further data" of this output type. I believe, if it is not ticked, then the output type is determined automatically and no manual change was carried out. Am I right?
2. When i checked the "determination analysis", I find that the output type with the message "Output ignored (Requirement not fulfilled)". If the output was determined automatically, then "output xxx found" should appear right? When the analysis says it is ignored, then how come it can appear automatically?
I am confused over this contradictory findings. Plz tell me whether my assumptions stated above are right. Kindly suggest me alternative ways to find out whether it is determined automatically or manually? If it is determined automatically, on what conditions?
Thanks in advance
Suresh

Hi Suresh,
In an output determination, it may tell u that the output type is ignored because of un-fulfilled requirement, but it will still automatically appear in Header-> output, but u need to check the actuall processing status, whether is 0,1, or 2. I assume for your case it will be 0 (not processed, meant for manual processing instead), 1 (processed) and 2 (error occurred).
Another thing which is essential is that, in order to let the system successfully fulfill your determination criteria, u need to assign output type with correct access sequence, for example 1 access sequence by sales org/billing type for output, another 1 is by sales org/shipping point. Or u can simply create 1 access sequence with 2 condition tables.
After that u need to create condition record for each output type, u do this in t-code VV31.
By rite, during transaction (issue output), system will be able to search for those condition record and output type will be automatically appear, providing if there is any rquirement routine in your output det. proc (appl = V3) returns TRUE.
Cheers,
Benny Andre

How to not retriggered output type when changes are made in Purchase Order

Hi All,
Could you let me know how can I resolve this one?
We have a custom output type. Now this output type should NOT be automatically retriggered if a change is made to the document/purchase order. Currently the system automatically repeating the output type for every change made to the document/purchase order. But there is still an option for the user to be able to manually repeat the output.
TIA

Hi,
1.In order to restrict the output type to trigger you need to write the requirement routine in transaction
VOFM> requirements>output control.
2. create the requirement routine in application EF and write the required logic and pass the sy-subrc EQ 4 if you not require to trigger the output type and pass sy-subrc equal 0 to trigger the output type.
3. assign this requirement routine to custom output type.

Enter Output Type Each Type while Printing Invoice

Dear All,
Have searched in the forum already for a proper answer but could not find one.
The issue is, while printing the invoice, the system is not automatically determining the output type even though all the output determination configurations have been made.
I have to manually enter the output type by entering into the billing document header data.
Kindly let me know if I have missed on any configuration during output determination.
Thanks and Regards
Adithya

I hope you did what mentioned you.
If you have doubt, whether the output type is getting determined properly or not.
Use Tcode VF02.
If Header Output Type -
select Goto option from Menubar - Then Header - Choose Output.
Accordingly, If the output type is Item related then
select Goto option from Menubar - Then Item - Choose Output.
Then Change: Output screen in your billing doc(VF02), in menubar select Goto - then choose Determin. Analysis.
In output determination procedure in Analysis Output screen, track your desire output type and its determination status.
Check routine for requirement against output type in:
1. Output determination procedure
2. In access sequence for the output type, check routine against access/condition table.
Finally, accordinly determine output condition record by using TCode VV31 for the desired output type.
Further, check routine for requirement like 62 is assigned against output type in:
1. Output determination procedure
2. In access sequence for the output type, check routine against access/condition table.
Also, have look on one my recently discussed SD thread:
- Re: Output to be blocked for Billing documents, if not released to Accounting

Change of Output type from WE01 to WE03

Hi,
I have assigned the GR with collective slip WE03,when I use Tcode MB90 i m not able to list all the material documents eventhough collective slip and print is active.I checked in MIGO transaction,output type was WE01.
How to change the ouput type of already posted GR's from WE01 to WE03.
Pls advise
Regards,
Shrini

MB02 select your mat document and click the message tab and maintian your out put type.
If you want always this output type MN21 maintain the output type.
NACE also assign your smartform to your output type.'
Pls check it this will resolve your problem

Multiple Output Type

Hi Gurus,
What is the configuration required to Assign 2 multiple output types for single invoice type.
i have configured a new ouput type. i have maintained the condition record also and maintained in procedure as well.
but the new output type defined is not triggered only the existing output type is displayed.

Hi,
You can do it under the transaction NACE
First create all required output types under "output types" option under application "V3"
Then assign those to your output determination procedure under "Procedures"
Assign this "output determination procedure" to your billing type under transaction V/25
Then maintain output condition records under VV31 transaction.
If you do it correctly, when you create your billing document system will automatically determine the correct output type in to the billing document.
I found below link very useful to understand how to configure output types in SAP.

Multiple output types for particular otputtypes

Hi Friends,
I done one PO .its pre printed. its working fine..
i want to do Ammendement PO(price change or quntity change) .its preprinted and format is completely differnt from actual PO.for that i have to create one more out put type . i created two output types. But same PO transactions.
i have to attach these 2 out puttypes for me21n, or me22n,or me23n..
ok.. my problem is if iam doing price change i have to get the automatic second output type triggerand get the second form.. How its going for second out put type..
Any process is there.. or any extracode we have to write.. please suggest.. inthat where and what kind of code we have to write ..
or settings we have to do..

Hi Kashif,
It is possible to create miltiple idocs for the So. Just you need to do is to Create multiple message types for the same idoc type. Then based on what ever it might be as plant, company code etc and Message type, you can diffirentiate Idoc and generate.
Thanks

Delivery Output Type not updated automatically in change mode

Hello,
I am dealing with a strange problem.
If i open delivery to change using VL02N then, output type configured for reissue is updated properly and on save ouput type is getting successfully processed also.
Now if i open VL03N and then using change mode button on application toolbar i go to change of delivery, then output type is not getting created. The issue was figured out when i tried to open delivery from shipment and then using change button i tried to change and save delivery....
Expectiing solution from experts.
Thanks
Hari

Hi,
May be this behaviour is due to the application in which you are opening the delivery. When you open the delivery from shipment, check the transaction code in the screen in system status. If it is VL03N, then it is correct. But if it is VT03N, then it is expected that even in change mode, the output is not triggered. Pls check this once.
I tried the same thing in an invoice from where i opened a SO and then went in change mode, and the otuput is getting retriggered.
I hope teh configuration of your output is correct. Ensure that the Multiple Issuing button is ticked on, if you want yoru output type is to be triggered everytime you go in change mode.

Output Type not automatically determined at invoice creation

Hi Friends,
I am facing a problem that while i am generating the invoice for a particular billing document type, the output type is not automatically being determined. Instead, I have to go into the invoice in change mode (VF02) Header>Output and assign the output type to it and select the local printer and save in order to print the invoice.
I am generating the invoice for this Invoice Type/Output type for the first time.
Please suggest the possible causes.
Regards,
Pankaj

Hello Pankaj,
Suppose you are using output type RD00 for invoice print out. You have maintained the condition record for RD00 in transaction code VV31. The most important thing here is the assignment of the printer.
Suppose for output type RD00 you are maintaining the condition record for key combination - Sales Organization + Distribution Channel + Division.
At the header level you will see the Sales Organization & Distribution Channel & at the item level you will see the Division.
Sales Organization = BP01
Distribution Channel = 01
Division.............Name..........Funct.........Partner............Medium......Disp. Time.....Langu
01............... Std Division..........BP............--......................1......................3................---
Select the line item & click on Communication. Here assign the output type which you will use for the print out. Now Save the condition record.
After doing this try running one sales cycle - sales order - delivery - invoice. Save the invoice & now check in the change mode (transaction code VF02) the system will determine the output type RD00 automatically.
Note:
1. In the create mode the system will not display the output type RD00, after you have saved the invoice the output type will be determined automatically.
2. Also check if there is any requirement assigned for the key combination in the access sequence (IMG - Sales and Distribution - Basic Functions - Output Control - Output Determination - Output Determination Using the Condition Technique - Maintain Output Determination for Billing Documents - Maintain Access Sequences)
With best regards,
Allabaqsh.
