Output Determination in Invoice

Question

Hi,
I created a Invoice using VF01, but I am not able to see the output. I don't see any values in Output Type.
Rather than manually enterting the values for Output Type , Medium....is there a way to automatically populate these values once the Invoice is created , so that I can view it in VF31?

Hi Naga,
Normally, sequence of activities is:
- Maintain output types:
in which you can find the list of all messages type for billing document. For message type you want to use, select it and set "access to condition in first view"
NOTE: If you have created a custom message, you have to verify at this point you have linked program and sapscript (or smartform) to the message type
-Assign output types to partner functions
Normally, for a billing type message, partner function linked is "BP" (bill to party)
-Maintain output determination procedure
In customizing of billing document (trans. VOFA) there's the "Output determ.pr
" field. These schema is the same in which you have to put the message type you want to link in billing document
-Assign output determination procedures
To link output schema messages at billing document type
You want to test these procedure, i can suggest you to use a standard message type, for which all these activities are normally already done.
In all it's ok, using VV32 transaction you can insert the message type and fill condition records to link automatically message in billing documents
Bye
