Print SAP Script in ZEBRA printer

arindam_samanta — Thu, 22 Nov 2012 16:15:26 GMT

Hi experts,

WM require to label raw materials at the pack level before these materials are consumed in the Manufacturing process.

To ensure these objectives are achieved each material needs to be easily identified at the “Point of Use” so accurate consumption can be recorded.

Therefore, these packs have to be presented to the Point of use area with a consistent label for easy recognition.

So need to create a label via a sapscript that can be printed via normal transfer order processing or can be printed by a specific label printing transaction.

Script will be printed in Zebra Printers. The script output size will be 152mm width X 100mm. The SCRIPT name will be assigned to the screen field V_T329F-FORMU in OMLV transaction.

A transfer Order is created in the system to move stock from one warehouse bin to another for this.

My doubt is:

For this, any driver program required or where should I write my business logic?

Kindly provide some suggestions.

Thanks & Regards,

Arindam Samanta.

Hi Arindam,

To print in a Zebra printer you must use ZPL (Zebra Programming Language) in your sapscript.

Hi Arindam,

For sample driver program goto NACE, check print programs of ME output types. You can create own by copy them.

For label, you can design new smartform. You don't need ZPL to print smartforms via zebra printers.

Hi experts,

Here customer wants SAP SCRIPT. For this scenario, I am facing problems to implement the business logic as I told previously. The following table shows the data for script.

SAP Material ID	LTAP	MATNR	LTAP-MATNR
Mat Description	LTAP	MAKTX	LTAP-MAKTX
Target Quantity	LTAP	VSOLA	LTAP_VSOLA	Alternative Unit of Measure
	LTAP	VSOLM	LTAP_VSOLM	Base Unit of Measure
Unit of Measure	RL03T	VAMEI	RL03T-VAMEI	Alternative Unit of Measure
	RL03T	VLME	RL03T-VLMEI	Base Unit of Measure
SAP Batch ID	LTAP	CHARG	LTAP-CHARG
Vendor Batch ID	MCHA	LICHA	MCHA-LICHA

How could I send these data to script or how could I develop business logic for same??

Kindly give some suggestion or sample example to get some idea.

Thanks & regards,

Arindam Samanta.

Hi Arindam,

If you are going to create your own label printing transaction, you don't need to use ZPLm use smartforms if your Zebra printer is compatible with them http://www.zebra.com/content/dam/zebra/product-information/en-us/brochures-datasheets/sap/sap-smartforms-faq-en-us.pdf

On the other hand, if you use Sapscript you can create the label with BarOne http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/f0debfc6-138c-2d10-718e-85ddc787c56b?QuickLink=index&overridelayout=true
