hi,

first you need to define the o/p determination procedure to the sales docs (orders, confirmations, deliveries, billing docs). its jus like a pricing procedure with various o/p occupying the steps in the procedure.

then you need to define the various o/p types. here u define the language, the medium, the acc seq (generally specific to the doc type), if the o/p will be fired immidiately or after some time.

assign to this o/p the SAP script or form which will appear to the users, with the various data.

assign the o/p type to the o/p determination procedure, mentioned in the first step.

maintain the cond rec for teh o/p type in vv31 (invoice), vv21(deliveries). wen doin this also maintian the printer settings in the 'communications method above.'

all these settings can be maintained following this path. img-sd-basic functionso/p control-using cond tech----for sales docs, billing.

OUTPUT DETERMINATION:

Output is a form of media from business to one of its business partners. 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:

SPRO- IMG- Basic Functions- Output Control- Output Determination- Output Det using Cond Tech- Output Det for Sales Documents & output det for billing documents.

Create Condition Table: select the field Sales Doc Type from field catalog & Save

Maintain Access Sequence: 4-digits code & description. 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

Select BA00 & Copy & Rename. Give the same 4-digit code as given to acc seq.

You Can Maintain:

Languages of Output

Partners (to whom we want 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 & create your own 6-digit code with descp. Select the procedure & go to Control Data. Here mention the output type i.e. cond type & 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 Orgn, 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.

Output Determination Configuration

Sales order confirmation

1. Maintain output types (Transaction: V/30 or Sales & Distribution -> Basic Functions -> Output -> Output determination -> Output proposal using the condition technique -> Maintain output determination for sales document -> Maintain output types)

1.1. Select and copy BA00 to ZA00

1.2. Access sequence 0003 (Sales org / customer). If one of these is not suitable then you need to maintain condition tables

1.3. Change Transm. Medium to 6 (EDI), partner function SP (Sold to), Time (4 = immediate)

1.4. Check access to conditions and check off multiple issuing

1.5. Save

2. Assign output determination procedure (Transaction V/47 or Sales & Distribution -> Basic Functions -> Output -> Output determination -> Output proposal using the condition technique -> Maintain output determination for sales document -> Assign output determination procedure)

2.1. Create a new entry for ZA00, medium 6, function SP and order confirmation.

3. Maintain output determination procedure (Transaction V/32 or Sales & Distribution -> Basic Functions -> Output -> Output determination -> Output proposal using the condition technique -> Maintain output determination for sales document -> Maintain output determination procedure)

3.1. Check Assign output determination procedures -> Allocate sales document header (Transaction V/43) for the Output procedure being used for order OR and BA00 and you’ll find that it is linked to V10000

3.2. Select V10000 (Transaction v/32) and choose control

3.3. Add a new step for your new output type. Eg. Step 40 (Next Step in sequence), Counter, Type = ZA00 and requirement 22 (Requirement tells when the output is required to be fulfilled. Ie. After order confirmation, after goods issue, …)

4. Create condition records (Menu path: Logistics -

> Sales & Distribution -> Master data. Output -> Sales document – Create)

4.1. If required select the appropriate key combination (in this case the Sales org / customer relationship)

4.2. Enter the customer number (QWM000 in this case) and enter. The rest of the values should be read in except the partner number.

4.3. Enter the required partner number (QWM000 in this case). This is the partner that will be EDI’d the data. It is usefull when you have multiple SAP customers that need to send messages to 1 partner. Eg. All the Wal-Marts send their invoices to 1 office. You would then have a list of customers, relating to each Wal-Mart, pointing to 1 Wal-Mart partner that will receive all the EDI docs.

Advance shipping notification

Similarly the output type was copied from LALE to ZALE and linked to partner QWM000

Based on when a delivery note is created (Transaction V/36)

Invoice

Similarly the output type was copied from RD00 to ZD00 and linked to partner QWM000

Based on when a delivery goods issue is posted. (Transaction V/42)
