Output

Each time a user saves a sales order, purchase order, production order, or delivery note, an output format is generated by the document. This output format represents a message in the SAP system. The message is then placed in the message queue. The message can be released either automatically or manually using a message control program.

The key parameters of the message control program are:

• Time – When? (Options: immediately, on demand, batch run)

• Message Type – How? (Options: online/screen, printer, fax, e-mail, EDI)

The default value for message control can be set in the master record of the business partner or at higher organizational levels.
