No message generated for output of purchasing document

[Former Member]

Dear Guru,

I created new document type in PO & assigned this to release strategy. System would able to generate release strategy for this document type. However there is warning massage prompt as well.

Warning massage:

No message generated for output of purchasing document

Description:

No message generated for output of purchasing document

Message no. 06261

Diagnosis

The system was not able to find a message record via the message determination schema. Therefore it was not possible for such a record to be generated for this purchasing document. In consequence, the purchasing document cannot be outputted (printed or transmitted).

Procedure

The message determination process should be checked and, if necessary, corrected.

The message record can be created manually for this document. For this purpose, choose the function "Messages" in the menu "Header" and maintain the necessary data.

I don't get this warning massage to other document type accept the new document type that I created. Appreciate if you could advise me what else setting needed for this new document type. Please advise. Thanks in advance.

I tried the link, it is opening. Anyway, copying from that thread here:

Output of Purchase Order customisation

1. Condition Table

SPRO > Material Management> Purchasing -> Message -> Output Control->Condition Tables->Define Condition Table for Purchase Order

Select:

Purchasing Doc. Type,

Purch. Organization,

Vendor

2. Access Sequences

SPRO -> Material Management-> Purchasing -> Message -> Output Control->Access Sequences->Define Condition Table for Purchase Order

3. Message Type

SPRO -> Material Management-> Purchasing -> Message -> Output Control->Message Types->Define Message Type for Purchase Order

4. Message Determination Schemas

4.1. Message Determination Schemas

SPRO -> Material Management-> Purchasing -> Message -> Output Control->Message Schema->Define Message Schema for Purchase Order-> Maintain Message Determination Schema

4.2. Assign Schema to Purchase Order

SPRO -> Material Management-> Purchasing -> Message -> Output Control->Message Schema->Define Message Schema for Purchase Order-> Assign Schema to Purchase Order

5. Partner Roles per Message Type

SPRO -> Material Management-> Purchasing -> Message -> Output Control-> Partner Roles per Message Type ->Define Partner Role for Purchase Order

6. Condition Record

Navigation Path: SAP Menu-> Logistics -> Material Management -> Purchasing-> Master data->Messages-> Purchase Order-> MN04-> Create

Now you create PO (ME21N) and save it. Go to ME22N and print the PO by giving output type

Dear Nantha,

The release strategy and output determination are 2 different things.

You are getting message for output because you have not defined how/where/when the PO is to be printed/faxed/emailed etc..

Please use transaction MN04 to maintain output determination records. Give the output type you want to use and select a suitable key combination. Depending on key combination, you will need to give values like purchasing org, vendor etc. If these criteria meet the criteria in your PO, you will not get the message anymore.

Please note that the document can be output only after the PO is released.

Hope it helps!

Dear friend,

Please maintain the condition record for the PO Output type in Transaction NACE, with required smartform assigned.

Transaction NACE> Application-EF(Purchase Order) >Condition Records>Output Type

Maintain the condition values respectively with communication details too.

This will results in automatic Output determination for PO.

Hope this helps. Njoy SAP
