Trigger delivery output based on Item by ABAP code

Former Member — Thu, 26 May 2016 12:49:43 GMT

Hello Experts,

I have a requirement to trigger Delivery Output (Print) based on Item rather than Header by using ABAP code.Below is the current screenshot:

Is it possible to code to change the triggering from Item not Header? If yes, how?

Thanks

As you can see in your screenshot - SAP provides 2 options to trigger delivery output - Header & Item. Hence, I couldn't understand what is the issue you are facing while selecting the 2nd option.

Please explain further.

Thanks

You are right. But if I click Item I do not find an entry as below which gets created once the print is triggered.

On clicking Item it remains blank.Let me know if any other detail needed.

Thanks

The entries there are output types configured by your SD consultant. The entries are not created through ABAP. Hence, please contact your functional consultant if you don't find any entries there.

Thanks,

I agree to you. So as mentioned in the original post the requirement is to achieve through ABAP due to some reason. Hence I am trying to understand if that is achievable.

Thanks

But, first things first, you need to get the functional consultant to configure the output type for delivery item. Only then it can be triggered even using ABAP.

Juwin is right - output at least needs to be configured first. Also output determination does not actually require any ABAP development in SAP, it can be configured. Saying "no, we want to do this with ABAP" would be like insisting on cutting a tree with a knife when you have a chainsaw. While not impossible, it's rather ineffective.

Not sure if there was a major misunderstanding about the requirements, you might want to go back to the SD consultant and clarify what exactly is requested.
