In the function module you have assigned to the process code, you can do the 'printing'.

So, what's the use of printing an IDoc, If I may ask?

Thanks for your valuable prompt response.

As I want to print the data in specific format so that has to be defined in the FM.

I am not aware of the option you mentioned . As when I defined proccess code , I didn't get any option of printing .

Can you kindly explain the same ?

Regards

Ajay

The process code you assigned to the inbound IDoc, has to be assigned to a function module which processes this IDoc, right? Now, if you use a function module of your own (CUSTOM FM!), you can do all the 'printing' you want.

So there is no option for printing by default (standard), but you will have to do it your self.

Another option would be to use a User exit. It seems there is a standard User exit (SIDOC001), or even a BAdI which you can use. I haven't used it myself, so can't help you there.

Thanks.

I was thinking that there is some option available in standard, so asked you for same.

The option of FM is the one of which I am aware of.

Any ways thanks for your valuable inputs.
