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

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.
Reagrds,

Output Determination using Requirement for Shipment

I created a new output requirement, 909, to handle two different formats for shipment bills of lading. The new requirement prevents a NAST record for format B from being created if a NAST record for format A exists. It works in the development environment and was transported to the QA environment. It does not work in the QA environment. It appears the requirement is not being check. Output determination procedure, access sequence, and output types are the same. The condition records created via VV73 are the same. What could cause a requirement to not be used? Thanks for your help.

Needed to execute RV80HGEN.

PO Output determination using Plant as a condition

Hi All,
I want to use PLANT (werks) as a condition in PO output determination. How do I do that?
Basically, I want to be able to send ORDERS IDoc only when the Plant is a certain value. Where can I check the plant information before sending the output. I have tried to add plant in a condition table and then in the access sequence which is referenced in the output type. I have created a condition record for this condition table with PLANT also.
But for some reason when I save the PO it does not create a output message (ORDERS IDoc). If I use any other PO header field (like purch org or purch gp) in the condition it works and generates the ORDERS IDoc.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Sneha

Thanks Narayan.
It goes into the code for the requirement that I created to check for Plant and here is the code... But the structure KOMPBEA does not get populated with any values. Is there some other structure I can use to check the value for PLANT?
FORM KOBED_979.
*{   INSERT         TSTK941598                                        1
IF KOMPBEA-WERKS = 'T300'.
    SY-SUBRC = 0.
ELSE.
    SY-SUBRC = 4.
    EXIT.
ENDIF.
*}   INSERT
ENDFORM.
FORM KOBEV_979.

Output determination using bapi create order

Hello,
I am using BAPI to create sales order. We have our 'Z' output determination which is connected to the new SD order.
It is also in NAST and has green light . But RSNAST00 did not worked.
This output determination writes a record to a table - but using the BAPI it did not happened.
Any one met this problem?
Thanks in advance
Sara

The green light only means that the output record was processed and that the processing program set the return code value to 0. It does not mean that any particular part of the code was successful. You should check for the success of the DB operation in your code. You can switch the light to Red by using a '4' for the return code. You should also add any necessary (custom) messages to the processing log using NAST_PROTOCOL_UPDATE.

Special function

Hi All,
I have an urgent requirement on Special functions.
Kindly let me know what is the purpose of Transmission medium- Special Functions.Also let me how to see the o/p if we use Special functions.
Can we see the printpreview or take the printout of the layout using special functions?
Points will be rewarded.
regards

Try this.... open System Prefrences, click on Keyboard & Mouse.
Click on the Keyboard tab.
If there is a check-box that says "Use all F1, F2, etc. keys as standard function keys" make sure the box is UNCHECKED.

Output determination for Customer Account group - A brain teaser

At the place of configuration for Account groups, there is a field called Output Determination which has values like DB001, DB002 etc which says output for sold to, ship to and so on...
What is the purpose of maintaining output determination procedure at the account group level?
And also, where can i do the complete output determination for it? Like i could see Output determination for sales activities, sales documents, billing documents and shipping...But no where in the img screen, i found a place where i can configure these? Any ideas?

In SAP, we send different output types(read documents) for Inquiries, quotations, orders etc. to relevant partners (read contact persons) sold-to party, ship-to party etc. thru various transmission mediums like ex. Print, Fax, e-mail etc.
Output can be determined by using component output determination procedure. System should know from where the output is to be determined whether from IMG or from customer A/C group. This is depended upon the control that we can activate or deactivate in "Check access for condition type" in definition of the output type (T.Code: NV03)
Output Determination:
IMG > Sales and Distribution > Basic Functions > Output Control > Output Determination Output Determination Using the Condition Technique > Maintain Output Determination for Sales activities/ Sales Documents etc.

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 .

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

Output determination process

hi
my issue is how an outputdetermination happens from sales to invoice, please help me out in this process

For getting any output either by print, Fax, or any media you have to do output determination. output determination is also carried by Condition techniques. The detail procedure for Output Determination is :
OutPut Determintaion :
Output is a form of media from your business to one of its business partners or it can be within the organization. The output can be sent to any of the partners defined in the document. Outputs are usually in the form of Order Confirmations, Freight List, Delivery Notes, Invoices & Shipping Notifications. Determining form of output is output determination.
Types of Output:
Print Output, Fax, Telex, E-Mail & EDI (Electronic Data Interchange)
--> PRINT OUTPUT:
Configuration path: ( following are the steps)
1) SPRO-> IMG-> Basic Functions-> Output Control-> Output Determination-> Output Determination using Condition Technique- >Output Determination for Sales Documents (or you can use output determination for billing documents depending on your requirement).
2) Create Condition Table: select the field Sales Doc Type from field catalog & Save
3) Maintain Access Sequence: 4-digits code & description.
4) Assign condition table to access sequence. Select Accesses line item and Go To Fields. Fields will display the fields we have selected in the condition table i.e. sales doc type.
Maintain Output Types:
AF00: Inquiry
AN00: Quotation
BA00: Order Confirmation
LD00: Delivery
RD00: Invoice
Select BA00 & Copy & Rename. Give the same 4-digit code as given to access sequence.
You Can Maintain:
Languages of Output
Partners (to whom you need to send output)
Print Program- print specification
Sap Script- layout
Assign Output Types to Partner Functions: go to new entries & assign your output type to partner functions.
Maintain Output Determination Procedure: V10000 (Standard Procedure). Go to new entries and create your own 6-digit code with description. Select the procedure, go to Control Data. Here mention the output type i.e. condition type and leave requirement and manual only columns as blank.
Determination Rule: link the 6-digit procedure code to doc types.
Create Condition Records: VV11. Select document type and click on Communication. Mention partner function, medium, time. Output device: LP01, Spool request Name: SD_003, Suffix 2: order_confir & flag on print immediately.
Once you press enter you will come across 2 key combinations:
Sales organisation/ Customer Number: fill SO, Customer No, Partner Function Abbreviation, Partner to whom the output should be sent, time, medium, language.
It contains: Sales Orgnisation, Customer, Partner Function (The abbreviated form of the name that identifies the Partner) (During output determination, the system determines the recipient of the output from the master record for the specified partner function. In this field, you can explicitly specify a recipient that will override the standard partner. There must also be a master record for the partner that is specified explicitly.), Medium, Time & Language.}
Order Type: Document Type, Partner Function (abbreviation), Partner, Medium, Time & Language.
Path For Output Determination For Sales Documents: Logistics -> Sales/distribution -> Master data -> Output -> Sales Document -> Create (t-code VV11)
Path for Output Determination for Delivery Documents : Logistics -> Sales/distribution -> Master data -> Output -> shipping -> Create ( t-ode VV21)
Path for Output Determination for Billing Documents : Logistics -> Sales/distribution -> Master data -> Output -> Billing Document -> Create ( t- code VV31)

Hi
In our business, more than one ordering address might be available for the same vendor. Therefore, we need to send Purchase Orders to different Ordering Address for the same vendor.Kindly help how to maintian the output determination for this.

Hi Prabhu
Output determination
What is output?
Output is communication. When we create a transaction in sales & distribution, and save the transaction we may have to communicate to the concerned business partner about the transaction.
Example;
Customer--Purchase Order-VA01 (Create sales Order)- save the sales order- send the order confirmation to the customer
Here the output is Order confirmation
This output is sent to business partner-Customer-Sold to Party
Other Examples: Quotation, Invoice, Delivery note, Packing List
Output determination happens through Condition Technique.
Condition records are very important here. And these records contain answers to following questions.
a)     What is the Output Type? Order confirmation or Invoice etc
b)     Who is the recipient? A Sold-to-party or Payer etc.
c)     What is the media? Take print out and send, or as email? Or Fax? Or EDI (Electronic data Interchange)
d)     When output to be processed? Immediately when the transaction saved or scheduled to happen at particular Time etc
e)     In which language the output to be prepared
