Defaulting Users Printer in VF02 Transaction

Former Member — Fri, 10 Aug 2012 05:04:08 GMT

Hi,

There is a requirement where i have to default the printer ( Logical Destination) to the User's Printer in VF02 TCode while assigning the output type.

Can anyone suggest how can this be achieved. The driver program is a custom program of RLB_INVOICE.

To pull the User's printer in VF02, the user has to maintain the default printer in the his own profile... from any screen System - > User Profile - > Own Data... in side this put the user default Printer in the OutputDevice field and then VF02 will automatically pick this printer as a default printer...

Hope this helps ..

Hi Harshad,

VF02 does not pick up the User's Default Printer. When i try to add a new Output say ZINV (Goto -> Header -> Output) and try to save it, I will be asked to provide the Printer (Logical Destination) inspite of having default printer. As per my requirement, as soon as you save the document once you give the output type and medium, it has to be saved. Hope am clear.

In the output conditions use printer LOCL. This will direct the output to each user's local printer, which can be maintained in the user profile.

SD consultant should know how billing output determination works. It's not an ABAP question really.

Hi all,

The issue is solved by modifying XNAST table. I passed the Users printer to XNAST-LDEST field.

Thanx for the replies.
