Header text on certificate profile

[Former Member]

Hi,

is it possible to enter a header text on the certificate profile which gets printed on the COA?

Or do I have to use a user exit for that or "hard-code" it on the form?

Each customer would like to have his own version of the sentence "we guarantee that this product..."

Thx, Jessica

There are several ways to get header text on a COA.

These are ways using the standard example sapscript layout that SAP provides

1) The QM text from the material master can be printed on it. ( I believe this is commented out in the example). This is becomes material dependent text basically.

2) If its really boiler plate stuff, it can be added directly to the layout set. In this case, you need one layout set for each different text that you need.

3) you can include standard text on the layout.

4) Create a dummy characteristic with the text you want in the long text for the method. Have this characteristic be the first characteristic listed and indicate that it print the method long text. Set it up to print even without a value, (since there won't be any values).

This is kind of cheating the system but can work nicely depending on your needs.

5) You can also have your sapscript person include the following long texts if you want them to. These are available:

QM agreement long text (material/customer specific)

QM SD info record long text (material/customer specific)

Certificate profile long text (profile specific)

Delivery note text (delivery specific)
