Configuring SAP IDOC Output For Sales Orders
Configuring SAP IDOC Output For Sales Orders
Here's a high-level
overview of the process:
1.
Define Output Types: You'll need to define the output types for the IDOCs. This can be done
in the NACE transaction for older SAP versions or using transaction code OPD for newer
versionshttps://sapspaces.com/idoc-configuration-for-sales-order-via-new-output-
management/.
2.
3.
Configure Partner Profiles: In transaction WE20, configure the partner profiles for the
partners who will receive the IDOCs. Specify the message types and the output modes.
4.
Set Up Output Determination: Use the condition technique to set up output determination
for sales orders. This involves creating condition records that determine when an IDOC
should be.
5.
Implement Message Control: Configure message control to trigger the output. You can do
this by setting up the appropriate process code, such as SD10 for sales order
1.
Test the Configuration: Finally, test your configuration by creating a sales order and
ensuring that the IDOC is generated and sent correctly.
SAP transaction NACE is used for configuring output determination for various documents
within SAP. It allows you to define and manage output types, assign processing routines like
print programs and forms, and set up condition records for when outputs should be
triggered. Here's a brief overview of how NACE works:
1.
Application: You select the application area (like V1 for Sales, V2 for Shipping, etc.) to
which the output type belongs.
2.
Output Types: You define the output types, which are identifiers for different kinds of
outputs like order confirmations, invoices, etc.
3.
Processing Routines: For each output type, you assign a processing routine that includes
the medium (print, email, fax), the driver program, and the form layout (SAPscript,
Smartform).
4.
Condition Records: These are used to specify the conditions under which an output is
triggered, such as a particular sales document type or customer.
5.
Access Sequences: They determine the search strategy the system uses to find valid
condition records.
The output determination procedure in SAP is a set of rules that define how and when
outputs are generated and sent. It involves the following steps:
1.
Create Condition Table: Define which fields will be used for determining outputs, like sales
document type.
2.
Maintain Access Sequence: Create a sequence that the system will follow to find the
condition records.
3.
Maintain Output Types: Define the different outputs that can be generated, such as
printouts or emails.
4.
Assign Output Types to Partner Functions: Specify which partner functions will receive the
outputs.
5.
Maintain Output Determination Procedure: Link the output types to the sales document
types and specify any additional requirements.
6.
Create Condition Records: Use transaction VV11 to specify the conditions under which an
output will be triggered, like for a specific sales organization or customer.
