Print sequence issue in background job

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

We use background job to create invoice in our system. Invoice has 2 output type, one is for invoice ans the other is for conditions&terms. Once invoice is created in background job, the two output will be issued. We print 4 invoice(1 orignal and 3 copy), and 3 conditions&terms for each invoice.

Now we found that the sequence of our print out is mixed. Sometime it is very hard to distinguish them. BTW, we found that if the paper was too less in the printer and we are refilling the printer in the morning also the sequence of the paperwork is not as it should be. Could it be that the printer is the one which is not printing the jobs in the transfered sequence?

Thank you in advance.

Hello,

Check that the sequential printing flag is set in the definition for the output device used by the background job:

SPAD -> Output Devices -> <Output Device Name> -> Output Attributes tab -> x 'Process requests seqentially'

Check the sequence in which each spool request is created using SP01, This will show you the exact sequence in which the invoices where created.

If this in the correct sequence then the problem is with the printer else the problem is in the sequence the invoices are created.
