Hi,
Set the processing mode of your o/p to 3 (Select your o/p and click on further data button and select send with application own transaction) and save the transaction. You can see the print preview from the initial screen as you can do it for print output.
Thanks,
Vinod.

Problem with SAP Script FAX output

Hi Friends,
I have problem with SAP Script Fax output.
After I issued output using the messge type, the print preview format shows me correct alignments and the right data. But when I go to List display using the menu bar functions from the print preview screen, the list is showing me the right data, but all the alignments at the main window went wrong.
How do I rectify this problem? I need correct alignments in both form display and list display.

Hi Sasidhar,
Have you tried with different fax machine.

Fax output - Chinese characters are garbled

Hello,
We are using fax output for two forms ( One smartform and the othe sap script). Both the form outputs are thorugh the same fax device. For the smartform output there are no issues and the output is as expected but for the sap script output the chinese characters are garbled. Instead of the chinese characters i get output like _____ _______>,<%,,<< etc.
Interestingly, if i have a look at the print preview or take print out there is no issue and the characters are as expected. The issue arises only during fax.
Can someone help pls?
Thanks,
Venkat

Problem in Sending Fax output in Adobe form

Hi All,
I am creating RFQ / Purchase order with output type : NEU, Medium : 2 (Fax). While creating output for the purchase order in transaction ME9F (adobe form), a popup window appears prompting for Output device.(NAST-DEST). For Fax as output medium NAST-DEST doesnot have any value. For print, it would be Printer name. This problem is not only with custom driver program but also seen when assigning standard program :SAPFM06P and standard adobe form : MEDRUCK_PO and standard routine : ADOBE_ENTRY_NEU.
There is absolutely no issue with SAP Script and I can see the output in SCOT.
Please let me know if there is any configuration settings to be arrived for FAX output medium using ADOBE FORM.
Thanks for all your inputs.
Thanks
Guru Shanthi

Hi Priyanka,
Thanks for your time.
In NACE, I had configured Driver program and corresponding ADOBE form.
Could you please suggest, how do I apply the solution you have provided. Please elaborate.
Thanks

Print & Fax output need advice

Hi all,
We are using a print output which is partner independant output.We dont assign any partner function for this.As of now only print medium is maintained in the processing routine.
My req is I want to use this output as print as well as fax output henceforth.The fax should go to Sold to party.The fax number is maintained in the sold to party master record.
I maintained fax meduim in the processing routine and have not maintained the partner function as this output is already a partner independant output.
After maintainig the condition record if the create the shipemnt docuemnt the system is not pulling the fax output.If I remove the indicator partner independant output and maintain the partner function for fax then the fax output is determined automatically in the shipment document.
Is there any way that with out partner fucntion I can pull the fax output automatically in the shipment docuemnt
REagdrs'
Mano

Second fax server with SAP-connect

Hello,
I'm able to send faxes from my SAP-server to the SMTP host. This host
send the faxes to the receiver.
Now we have two purchase companies in our client who want to send faxes
to their suppliers. In our company we use two fax-servers for each
company and the users of this company could only send faxes by their own fax server. But from out SAP Iu2019m only able to create one SMTP connection
to a fax-server. Is it possible to create a second SMTP fax server in the
tr-SCOT and send a purchase order depending on, for example the message
type, to one of the fax connection defined in SCOT?
Kind regards,
Richard Meijn

Hi,
I suppose you need to maintain output determination .

Report painter report in portal - Excel output in SAP GUI for HTML

Dear sirs,
I need your expertize. I would like to let my users display (Excel in place)/ save the result of my report painter reports into MS Excel. I have found notes 499262 a 314568, but didn´t understand the message (or there is no message:)). Does that mean I cannot use Excel in place together with Report painter and SAP GUI for HTML?
Second question: is there a place (user exit in generated code? I don´t even know what I am looking for) to get the data provided by the report painter engine and send the retrieved data to some custom function (to be able to call the Adobe form, to save it as a text file or any option how to manipulate the resulting data...?).
thank you for your time and effort,
regards Otto

Hi Otto,
You can send print the report to the spool and then use RSTXPDFT4 program to convert this spool to PDF file. Alternatively, you can export the spool to spreadsheet or ASCII file via SP01 transaction.
Additinally, I'm not aware of unability to use Excel output with SAP GUI interface.

Eli

If i got incorrect characters in the output of sap script? HOW TO CORRECT IT?

Hi Sunil,
Debug the script and check where exactly those are getting populated. Definately you will get it. Check the conversion parts means character to numeric conversion.
If your version is 4.7E then select unicode check box in the reports attributes. It will display the error message so that we can solve very easily.Hope this helps you, reply for queries, Shall post you the updates.

Hi all,
Have any one tried the below scenario?
I want to send the fax output to my sold to party.I want to Select the medium as 7 instead of 2 in the condition record and when I double click the line I have an option to select the fax number as recipient type and I can enter the Fax number in the recipient field
Usually, medium 7 would be used to send the mails.But Will it work for Fax output?.What is the difference between using medium 2 and medium 7 with recipient type fax number.
If someone worked on this, Please let me know

How to set a default output device for FAX outputs

Hi Experts,
Business requires to set a default output device for fax outputs ( Medium as 2 Fax medium ).
as fas as print output ( medium as 1 print medium ) is considered we can maintain output device in condition record--> communication
I tried maintaining output device in VP01 for my condition type based on sales org but it did not worked.
Can you please suggest ways to achieve default output device for fax outputs.
Thanks,

Well, obvious solution would be to either update user profiles or change the output from 'process immediately' to 'process by a background job'. Then create a generic user ID with any fax number desired and use that user ID to process the output through the background job.
This is not really an SD question, so if this simple option doesn't work for you, I'd suggest to discuss other custom solution with your ABAP / Basis team.

PO Fax output issue

Hi,
We have configured FAX output for PO. The fax output is being processed successfully.
We have issue in which if a user processes fax output and its sent successfully from ECC but there is error at the fax machine.
In this case, User might think he has sent the fax but actually it has not been sent successfully.
It was decided that in cases like this, email will be sent to the user who has processed fax indicating that there was error in fax and he needs to re-send PO again. The problem here is , this email which is sent from Fax machine, is not able to specify the PO number for which the error occured.
Is there any way that while calling the PO smart form, i have to pass PO number in specific parameter which can be picked up and send to the user in email so that user knows specific PO which went into error.
Please let me know incase any further information is required to answer this.
Regards,
Shahu

Hi Sudhir,
The solution in the thread are for SRM.
Do we have any solution for the POs in ECC6 R/3?
Thanks
