New Swatch Type: 'Corporate Color'

Question

Have you ever designed a logo and managed its various color versions? You will want this feature.
Click 'New Swatch' – you get a dialog box with the possibility to choose, among other things, from two color types: Process Color or Spot Color.
Let's imagine there was a third option: 'Corporate Color' (or whatever you want to call it, that's irrelevant).
Choose 'Corporate Color' – and you will be given the possibility to manually select/enter the color values of any/all versions this particular corporate color might have, say: PMS Coated, CMYK, RGB, RAL – and if needed, also PMS Uncoated version, different CMYK versions for newspaper and coated stock, etc.
Of course you would be able to add, remove and edit these color versions of a Corporate Color afterwards, as per the basics of good UX.
The thing is, these fixed values for different color versions would follow with the Corporate Color where ever you use it in your document, and whatever changes you make to your document. Say, you convert your document from CMYK to RGB – normal colors are converted according to whatever color management settings you might be using at the time (and continue to do so regardless of this new feature). But, a Corporate Color would first check if there's a fixed RGB version set, and if there is, skip all conversion calculations and, simply use that fixed version.
Also, if you 'Save for Web', for example, a suitable RGB version would be used of each/any Corporate Colors you've chosen to define and use in the document. Everything else would convert just as it does now.
You could use that? Yeah, thought so. But here's the really cool part: with Corporate Colors, you would also have this new export/save option: 'Export Corporate Color versions'. What would this option do? You guessed it right. It would export all the different color versions of the document, in neatly named files (and folder structure when applicable), and any formats you check for each Corporate Color version.
Let's say you have a two-color logo, and you've defined both colors as Corporate Colors with one CMYK and one RGB version. In the 'Export Corporate Color versions' dialog box (or the document's default settings for the tool) you choose a .pdf, an .eps and a 600ppi .tif format for the CMYK versions and a .svg and 1000px wide .png and .jpg formats for the RGB versions. Then simply click 'Export' and you get the following:
[folder: my-logo-cmyk-versions]
my-logo-cmyk.pdf
my-logo-cmyk.eps
my-logo-cmyk-600ppi.tif
[folder: my-logo-rgb-versions]
my-logo-rgb-1000px-wide.png
my-logo-rgb-1000px-wide.jpg
my-logo-rgb.svg
Each file in the company's official RGB or CMYK colors, effortlessly and with absolutely no mistakes.

Thanks everybody. I won't be taking more of your time. Bye!

Hi Ranjith,
This is how I debug output type message related issues :
i) If you get red coloured message against the output type - Put the breakpoint in FORM ENTRY of your print program and check the RETCODE variable. Also check the sy-msgid, sy-msgno variable.
ii) If you get red coloured light after pressing messages button. These Messages are updated using 'NAST_PROTOCAL_UPDATE' fm. Put a breakpoint in the function module and find out the cause.
