Define print control

In this IMG activity you configure print control.

Print control helps you to define the following:

Which slips are to be printed for the movements (that is, for the transfer orders) withinLean WM?

How these slips are to be printed (that is, which forms are to be used, how many copies are to be printed)?

On which printer is a slip to be printed automatically?

Print control enables you to flexibly manage the print operations in your warehouse. This flexibility involves a certain degree of complexity with regard to the parametrization. For
this reason, you are advised to examine print control as a whole beforehand and then analyze the "printing situation" in your warehouse.

You need to configure the following settings:

Spool code

The printout of slips in the SAP system always involves the spool system. Each time you print, you need to provide the spool system with certain data, such as:

Number of copies to be printed

Dataset name of the printout in the spool system

"Immediate print"

"Delete after print"

You use the spool code to define the combinations of the individual parameters that you wish to use.
In the subsequent settings (for example, configuration of the print code), you no longer have to enter these parameters every time, one by one. You merely need to enter the
spool code as an abbreviation.

Printer pool / Labels

In the printer pool for labels, you can define a dependent label printer for each printer. In this way, labels can be printed on special paper in parallel, for example, when you are
printing transfer order documents.

Sort profile / Multiple processing

The sort profile defines the sequence of the transfer order items when you print in collective processing. Furthermore, you can decide for printing in collective processing
whether this is relevant for a control break, that is, whether printing is to continue on a new page if there is a change in the field content.

Print code

The print code defines the following information for printing transfer orders:

Form that is used for the printout

Sort sequence (via sort pool) in which the individual items of a transfer order are to be printed. The sort pool is only called up via collective processing.

Spool code (see above)

Inclusion of shipping data. Here you can include additional information for picking orders, for example, the address of the ship-to party, or serial numbers already
assigned to the delivery items. (This parameter for reading additional data should be set to inactive for printouts that are critical with respect to time.)

Label form, label spool indicator, and the definition as to how the number of labels for each TO items is to be determined.

In the following, you will see that you can assign a print code to each movement type of the Warehouse Management system. A transfer order is always assigned to a
movement type. The print code determines in this way the general print parameters for the transfer order.

Assignment printer - movement

You can assign various printers and spool codes on the basis of the movement (source storage type - destination storage type). Furthermore, you can also choose to suppress
printing of the transfer order.
There are now parameters (print code, form) that you can define both in the "printer-movement" setting and in the print code setting.
In the automatic determination of the print parameters, the system proceeds as follows: If something is to be printed automatically for a transfer order, the system determines
the general print parameters using the print code assigned to the movement type. It then looks at the movement-specific print parameters. If these parameters contain a
parameter (for example, the form) that is set and, at the same time, defined in the print code, then the movement-specific parameter is used.
Also, the definitions in the print code for label printing can be suppressed based on a particular warehouse movement.
It is still possible to store an additional form for a combined list printout, with the spool code and the printer, in order to print a combined document in single printout for each TO
item. This is only possible as an accompanying document for non-combined printouts (indicator for combined printing in the print code) and is otherwise ignored.

Assignment printer - picking area

It can be appropriate for picking orders to select a printer near the picking area.
Again you are faced with the question: How does the system proceed with automatic print search since you can define a standard printer both in the setting "Printer -
Movement" as well as in the settings for "Printer - Storage type", "Printer - Picking area" and in the user master of each user?
First the system determines whether a printer is defined in the setting "Printer - Movement". If so, the printer search stops at this point.
If not, the system decides on the basis of the parameter "PrtSrcTy." that is defined in the setting "Printer - Movement" how it is to proceed.
If the parameter is set, the system determines whether a printer is defined in the setting "Printer picking area" and then proposes this.
If no printer was found, the system searches in the setting "Printer - Storage type" for a defined printer, and uses this, if available.
If the system cannot determine a printer in this way, it selects the printer defined in the user master of the user currently logged on to the system.
If no printer is defined here either, the system automatically proposes "LP01". The print order is written to the spool file.

Assignment printer - storage type

Here you can assign a printer for each storage type, in accordance with the printer search logic described above.

Assignment print indicator - movement type

A print code is assigned to each movement type. As mentioned above, the general print information is defined by this assignment.

Assignment print program - warehouse number

You must assign a print program to each warehouse number. The name of the standard program is RLVSDR40.

Print control - multiple processing

A print report is assigned to each warehouse number for printing multiple transfer orders. In addition, you can configure the following settings:

Print code

Printer

Time of output

Forms are used to format the printout.

Standard settings

In warehouse number "100", all relevant print control tables for Lean WM are defined.

The following print programs are available:

RLVSDR40 (general print program)

RLKOMM40 (collective processing)

Recommendation

Only use your own print programs if your company requirements are not covered by the user exits defined in the standard system. To extend the functionality of the program
RLVSDR40, use the user exit MWMD0001. Extensions for the print program RLKOMM40 can be developed using the user exit MWMD0002 . For more information on extensions
using a user exit, refer to the chapter Develop extensions for Warehouse Management .

The modification of forms in Warehouse Management is described in the chapter Develop forms.

Further Recommendations

1. Before you begin with table maintenance, you should look at all the tables beforehand and define which ones you need.
2. Then maintain the tables in the specified sequence.

Actions

1. Create the spool indicators for each warehouse number.

2. Create the dependent printers for label printing.
3. Define the sort profile for multiple processing.
4. Create the print codes for each warehouse number.
5. Assign the printers to the individual movements.
6. Assign the printers to the picking areas.
7. Assign the printers to the storage types.
8. Assign the print codes to the movement types.
9. Assign the print reports to the warehouse numbers.
10. Assign the print control to the multiple processing runs.
11. Using the analysis program, check whether the settings comply with your needs.

Further notes

For the most part, the print control described above does not differ from the control set in the "normal" Warehouse Management system. For more information, refer therefore to the
IMG for Warehouse Management, section Define print control.
