Hi Gurus,

I have a requirement of creating of creating a new output type.

1) i need to extend one field.

2)one field which shows order unit should be replaced with base unit.

3) need to print some instructins..

so for this should i change in the program?

or do i need to create an abap spec??

KSK,

(after reading Danny's post)

(If you are new to SAP SD) I would suggest that you clearly describe the requirements (where, what etc.). The document that contains the requirement (from a functional perspective) is called the Functional specification document.

Give this document and sit with the ABAPer, explain him/her what you want.

He/she shall take care of the requirement.

Next you would have to test and check if the requirement is met.

Hi Gurus,

For the first requirement should i need to increase the width in the page window of the form?? and for the second how do i write the code for it??? how to include text in the output type?

1) i need to extend one field.

You can include as many fields you want, you can adjust the width in the line type. ABAPer will be     having the idea to work on this.

2)one field which shows order unit should be replaced with base unit.

ABAPer can write the logic to fetch base unit instead of order unit.

3) need to print some instructins..

You can create a text and write the instructions there. just give what are the instructions to be shown to the ABAPer, he will do it.

I hope this will clear your doubts.

Regards

Danny

Hi KSK,

Your post is not very clear to provide the correct answer.

Anyway, let me try to explain you..

If you want to add any new field which is not part of standard SAP then you have to take help from ABAP.

for the second and third questions, yes, you have to take ABAP help.

Create FS with all your requirements so that you will the things from yoru ABAPer.

Next time onwards, its good provide full scenario and your requirements.

Hi,

   You can go for System modification   .  If you are referring to shipping document related output  please refer user exit option provided in below path.

IMG- LE-Basic Shipping Function - Output Control - System Modification for Output.

Mohamed,

You have suggested to look at userexit as an option; for output determination.

Could you please explain why?

Output determination functionality does not require userexits, as the code (any instructions) can be written in the output program and then information (of the documents e.g. sales orders, deliveries etc.) can be put in the output form.

If I can describe, the generation of an output is happening in "a parallel" channel / way to the main processing of the documents (where userexits are/could be needed).

Hi,

I think you will need to make use of ABAP.

Hello KSK,

Definatly you have to make change in your print program.

You need to write a small functional spec to direct the ABAP guy how the data could be fetched for the Base Unit as well instructions made on the Billing document.
