What is the basic Functionality for a print-program?

[Former Member]

Hi ABAP,

I´m doing SAP-Script for quie a time now, but now for the first time i got the task to build a Sap-Script Form and a corresponding print-programm.

I did the customizing part, created a message, and implemented that message in a bill in SAP-System.

What means if i save that offer, or want a print preview i SHOULD get a Spool or an output.

Actually i get nothing, so hence i forgot something like

Call function 'OPEN_FORM'.

any ideas? Any Hints how to build a Form from nothing?

Copy the SAP standard program to a new z-one and start to modify it based on your requirements.

Hi

Write an executable program like any other report program

in that call the fun module

OPEN_FORM and in that give the form Name as parameter.

and fetch the related data for printing from all the databse tables into internal tables .

loop that internal table and in that loop call the fun modules WRITE_FORM

endloop. and finally call the fun module CLOSE_FORM.

Then go to SE71 and develop ascript with the name you have mentioned in OPEN_FORM.

Create Pgaes, Paragraph formats, charcter formats,

windows, Page windows, text elements etc and write the data in the text elements.

when you execute the program, it will call the script and print.
