Hi,

Please check whether the form is activated and copied in your existing client.

Hi,

You can check two things.Check the driver program and check the form active or not.Keep a debug point and see.

Hi,

Goto NACE transaction,

Select EF- Purchase Order line & click on Output types,

Select NEU-Purchase order & double click on Processing routines

You will find the name of driver program 'SAPFM06P' check if ZZ_MEDRUCK is the FORM name.

Hi all,

thanks for your responses. I have maintained all these parameters mentioned initially and am still getting this error message.

However, am able to print PO in a different client (210) on the same system but when i simulate same setting in another client (220) where I have workflow triggered, it doesn't print PO.

The status color indicator changes from amber to red after PO approval instead of changing to green.

Hi,

can you please post the error which is coming in the client 220? You can go to the processing log of the output type to get the error message?

Cheers
