Message transmission medium (nacha)

hi,
may i know nacha = 8 (special function) means what?
in what situation i can use 8?
thanks

Hi
it is the Message transmission medium which Specifies how the output will be produced.
You can specify, for example, that the output is printed or that it is produced and sent by other means, such as fax, electronic mail, or electronic data interchange (EDI).
You may use this, when other mediums (from 1 to 7 and A, T) are not useful
means for any other special function defined by the client.

Message transmission medium

Hello Friends,
Can you please tell me the procedure to achieve this.
How can you determine the message transmission medium while the
requirement subroutine (Requirements Output Control T-Code VOFM ) is running.
FORM KOBED_601.
get message transmission medium
ENDFORM.
FORM KOBEV_601.
get message transmission medium
ENDFORM.
Regards

I think you handle this by handling the subrc and the condition types.
Check the following thread.

Hope it helps.

Message transmission medium - NAST-NACHA

I want to add another transmission medium for purchase orders, or change the name on an existing medium. Where in the implementation guide do I do that?

We want to create a medium "X" that works just like a "6". We are integrating with XIGN, a vendor hub, and we will be sending all of our POs to them. Right now while testing we configured the output medium to be a "6" for those POs we are sending to XIGN and also for our EDI vendors. Our Purchasing dept said it would be nice to have the medium be something different than "EDI" so that we know that the PO went to XIGN and not via EDI to our VAN. (At some point, we will be eliminating our VAN and all of our POs will go to XIGN, so I could just change the text name of medium "6" to be XIGN instead of what it says now, which is "EDI".

Transmission Medium NACHA = '8' Special function-executing output type

hi All,
i have requirement that through the Transmission medium '8' i need to assign the custom program to store the Smartform as PDF in the desktop location or the location where the user selects.
if i assigned the transmision medium as 8 for particular output type say ZAP1 . the particular output type is not getting displayed when i try to use issue output option through va22.
any pointers will be highly appreciated.
thanks.

ok, if you set for your output type NAST-VSZTP=3 you can add code in your print program to display popup window in which
user specify own path for storing PDF...
but if output type will be created in background ( VSZTP ne 3) then
you must save PDF in server path...and user may download it by
cg3y...

WMTA message type With transmission medium 8

In warehouse management, when we create Delivery using VL10B, if WMTA message conditions have been set, system will create transfer order immediately.
With WMTA message, if we do not use transmission medium 8( special Function) , then system does not determine WMTA and no transfer order is created.
Can you please help me by explaining , how WMTA message type creates Transfer order when delivery is created.
I think, transmission medium '8' is doing something , ( may be calling a method or badi or something , to create Transfer order from delivery).
So please can you help me in this regards?
Thanks in advance.
Bharat.

of course the medium 8 is triggering something in SAP, as you dont just create an output like you do it with medium 1 paper or 2 fax.
I have never asked why SAP is using 8. I was just lucky that SAP described that we have to use 8, and that it works.

SD: Output determination - Use of transmission medium = "Special function"?

Hi,
Would you tell me what is the specific use of transmission medium = "Special function" (table TNAPR-NACHA = 8) in the output determination for messages?
Transaction V/30
Thanks and regards,
Eric

Hi Guys - Transmission medium 8 - special function is a very strong functionality that SAP has provided. You can have a business document perform a specific function everytime it is created, obviously as an output to that document. I am not sure about FICO areas, but I have worked on it in SD.
We do automatic shipment creation for deliveries. An output condition was created with access sequence of shipping cond and shipping point. Now whenever there will be a delivery created for this shipping point, it would trigger this output. The output is configured with special function transmission medium. The special function executes the program mentioned in the condition record set up. Through that program, we create a shipment that will have that delivery doc.
So then everytime a delivery is created, we would have a shipment document created for it without having to schedule another background job....!!!!
Likewise, you may accordingly utilize FICO documents and processing using special function output medium.
Thanks

How to send Mail in case of Output Determination - Transmission medium 5

Dear Friends,
I have a below requirement.
- Create custom output type having Transmission medium 5, which triggers on creation of order.
- Write driver program attached to that output type that sends e-mail to the person who has created the order.
- Mail contain information regarding pricing for individual line item wise.
I have gone through many posts but not sure about process of generate the mail in case of Transmission medium 5.
My query is:
Do we require to write FM (SO_NEW_DOCUMENT_ATT_SEND_API1) to send e-mail to respective person or it will take care by system (Transmission medium 5)?
If FM not required then how can we write code that triggers the mail to specific mail ID?
Nilay

Yes, for your custom requirement you will have to create a Z report.
LIke your requirement must be to put something specific in mail body or attach something with mail. All this will not be catered by the standard report maintained against your output type and transmission medium.
As i understand for any output type a message is triggerd and stored in database table (like NAST) and then these requests are picked by standard report (like RSNAST00). These reports then in return call the Program/form maintained against the ouptut type and transmission medium (table TNAPR).
So i would suggest that create a custom report and use the FM for sending mails. These FMs are pretty simple to use. Find a sample code in the below link:

Output - Transmission Medium - Special Function

Hi
In SD Billing output, Transmission Medium used as 8.Special Function. This is sending information to Oracle(Legacy). Now we need to make some changes in output. But, in tcode:NACE, there is no print program or form assigned to this output type. In table:TNAPR also, no program displayed.
Please provide info on how/where print program assign to output type for special functions. Or which program sends output/data to legacy
Regards
Uma

Hi,
I have small idea.I hope this will help you in identifying the program you want.
First goto VF02.Enter your billing document number.
Click on billing document-->Issue output to.
Selectyour output type.Goto Print preview.
press /h.Debugging will be switched on.
Double click on that message.
Click on break points.Select Break point at-->Breakpoint at statement.
Mention call function and press Enter.Press F8 and check for "CALL FUNCTION 'SSF_FUNCTION_MODULE_NAME'".
In this check for gv_fomname.
Get it.Goto SE16.Enter the table name as "TNAPR".
Enter this form name here and get the program name.
Please do this with the help of your ABAPer.

Output Determination - Transmission medium 5

Hi All,
I have a requirement where I need to send a mail to external e-mail address after PGI. I used transmission medium 8 with output type and attached my own program to it to send a mail. which is working fine.
I was wondering if there is any other way where it can be done using SAP standard output type. I can see transmission medium 5 but not able to make out what is the relevance of it? I would appreciate if anyone can guide me if transmisson meduim 5 can be used in current scenerio and if there is any benefit of using it.
Thanks in Advance,
Gagan

I recently looked into the transmission medium 5 and this is what I got from it.
Transmission medium 5 can be used to send sapscript documents to external e-mail accounts. In my situation I was setting this up for a Sales Document Output. To get this to work, I needed to make sure the sold-to customer(XD02) has an e-mail address setup and the user-id issuing the output must also have an e-mail address attached to the user's master record(SU01). The customer receives the e-mail with the sapscript document as a PDF attachment. The subject of the e-mail had the sales document number, but I'm not sure if there is a way to change the subject or add text to the body of the e-mail.
Hope this helps,

TRANSMISSION MEDIUM AND FORM ROUTINE IN CASE OF NACE TRANSACTION

While saving a invoice, I have created a routine which will pick an output type when a certain condition is met.
A custom report (Zprogram) needs to be triggered automatically during this invoice save. So we need to attach this Zprogram to output type.
Could anybody tell me the transmission medium to be selected and also what needs to be entered in the field Form routine for this program which I have created in the transaction NACE->V3(Billing)->Output types->Processing routines?
Thanks in advance.

HI Shah,
Form routine is nothing but a sub routine in your Z program (Driver Program). Simply one driver program can be used in multiple Layouts by using Form routines. If you are using the driver program only for one layout, then the routine declaration is not necessary.
Simply select the transmission medium as Print out in case of print. Special function means whether you want trigger this form for only Bill-to-party or Ship-to-party etc.. I hope you need to maintain as SH or BP, check with your functional people once.
You can check the below link for further customization reference.
Link: [output type configuration;
You can check the below link to know the exact meaning for Form routine.

Best practice for using messaging in medium to large cluster

What is the best practice for using messaging in medium to large cluster In a system where all the clients need to receive all the messages and some of the messages can be really big (a few megabytes and maybe more)
I will be glad to hear any suggestion or to learn from others experience.

publish/subscribe, right?
lots of subscribers, big messages == lots of network traffic.

Transmission Medium 5 with one time customer..

Hi there, I have sent email from a smartform using a Z print program where I do all the coding to make the email go out. I really want to know how to use transmission medium 5 to do the same without making a Z print program and coding it all. SAP standard functionality allows this but I have seen many references of having to enter the email address on the customer master but in our case we are using a "one time Customer" for these documents where you wouldnt update the customer master, the email address is saved at the document level.
My question is: Does SAP allow for the use of transmission medium 5 for these one time customers.. If so what needs to be done for it to work?
We have the output type set up as 5, a print program and a smartform all ready.
Thanks In Advance .
TonyC

Hi,
To maintain addresses of the email you can maintain it in ADR6-SMTP_ADDR.You can fetch this address based on the addrnumber
