SAPSCRIPT FROM ABAP

[Former Member]

Hi,

I have a requirement to output a sapscript document from data held entirely in a Z table. The document will

have header and item format. Does anyone have a skeleton ABAP / or steps required to achieve this. My guess is:

1. Create Sapscript document

2. within ABAP fill internal tables with data to be printed

3. call sapscript function modules passing data to be printed.

Also ( rough estimate! ), would this be achievable in a day? There is an existing sapscript which could be used as a template - then modify to read Z data.

Thanks for your help.
