COA in csv file format

[Former Member]

Hello Experts,

We have a requirement to create quality certificate as flat file in CSV format. I am afraid this cant be achieved through any of the exit and option is to copy and create Z print program. Please advice if there is an option without creating custom program.

Thanks

You are correct in that there is some programming involved but NOT a Z print program.  If you do ned to do the Z program, ONLY change the final forms module NASTEDFO.  Do not change any of the other submodules.

SAP already provides an example program that is supported in the form of the print program RSNASTED which is delivered out of the box for EDI processing.

An EDI file is nothing more than a text file formatted in a particular way with particular syntax.  If you look at how this is set up for the LQCA and LQCB output types, you should be able to duplicate this setup to produce a text file that matches your CSV requirement.  You can assign the changed programs maybe to "8 - Special function" or "4 - Telex" or "5 - external send".

In config:

QM-->Quality Certificates-->Process Output-->Assign print Program to Output/Type/Medium

QM-->Quality Certificates-->Process Output-->Define Output Types with Certificate

Make sure you read the help files for each field and all configuration documentation.
