Former Member — Thu, 27 Oct 2005 07:32:35 GMT

I would like to know how to put in a remark in the print preview of a billing document in "zsmsdr013".Its not working even after i have put in something in "remark note" under header text in "VF02".

Hi Dave,

Since you use a custom built program (ZSMSDR013) you should check the program if this text is taken into account.

Hi Dave,

It seems you are using a custom print program. In this you have to use the READ_TEXT function module to read the text 'remark note' and use the WRITE_FORM to pass the text to the print.

Let me know if you need more clarification.

Cheers

Vinod

Hi Dave,

This will take some time if you are very new to ABAP. Could you please check if there is already a call to FM READ_TEXT in your ABAP?

John.

Ok Dave, next question: Is the billing document being printed with a Smartform or SAPscript?

Should be SAPscript cos i would have to type "locl" in the output device field n select the appropriate printer in the "windows printer" field.

Hi Dave,

The type of printer is of no influence.... I'm afraid it will be too complex to help you using this forum.

I advise you to take a close look to other programs for printing invoices, like the standard SAP program RLB_INVOICE.
