Print immediately

[Former Member]

HI everybody,

Is it possible to specify in an abap program that I want to print a list immediately after clicking on the print button?

I don't want that the user chooses 'Send to SAP spooler only for now'.

Is it possible???

Thank you.

Hi,

THERE ARE 2 THINGS : (1 IS MANUAL, OTHER IS USER PROFILE)

1. When print command is executed from toolbar,

a window comes

where we can select PRINTER NAME, etc.

In this window itself,

we have to tick 'PRINT IMMEDIATELY'

3. ANOTHER SETTING IS IN USER PROFILE

(THIS WE CAN DO OURSELF, OR TELL BASIS TEAM)

4. From any window, goto this menu

SYSTEM --> USER PROFILE --> OWN DATA

5. A new window will come.

Select DEFAULTS tab.

6. Tick the check box for OUTPUT IMMEDIATELY.

or if it is from program.

NEW-PAGE PRINT ON PARAMETERS PARAMS NO DIALOG.

NEW-PAGE PRINT OFF.

Fill the params using FM call SET_PRINT_PARAMETERS .

I hope it helps.

Cheers,

Simha.

Hi Karim

The <b>ITCPO</b> structure in Scirpts is used to set characterstics to Output interface to the scripts.

Here you can give values to print parameters like no of copies to print, Spool request, Print preview option, type of device specificatin etc.

You will use this structure in the OPEN_FORM function module for the parameter OPTIONS.

Different variants can be defined for the output via the parameter OPTIONS. The structure is described in table ITCPO. Some of the fields contained in this structure can be changed by the user via the print dialog.

Yes, there is. It is used in Sapscript print programs to load up output paramaters. It is used when call the OPEN_FORM function module in the print program. Here is the structure

Hi

Yes you can do it programatically.

By writing the

send immediately parameter = 'X'.

u can achieve this.
